Here’s an amusing mock-umentary showing what the world would look like with female parthenogenesis: No Men Beyond This Point https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2556936/ “Praise Nature” I'm going to return this book to the library and then go purchase a copy so I can reread it at my leisure. This is the way it is. I read it in a day. When I finished I wrote E. Jean Carroll an email. I have only ever once before written an author, Howard Bahr after The Widow of the South. I told Auntie E that I believed her and had her back. Funny how I related to this travel book slash memoir. Funny, the book was genius funny for being able to put you at ease while describing some horrible occurrences in her life. And relatable because as a woman, who of us has not been on the receiving end of 1) female discrimination 2) misogyny 3) unwanted sexual advances? I related to Ms. E. In so many ways. I lived in Ft. Wayne, I have been to many of the towns she traveled to, I too have a Kitty with my last name, I too have laughed off very serious situations because laughing helps tap down the terror. Anyway, a memoir that is entertaining, funny, compassionate, eye opening....name 5 woman who could be President? Name 5 female movie stars you admire? sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
When E. Jean Carroll--possibly the liveliest woman in the world and author of the "Ask E. Jean" advice column in Elle Magazine, realized that her eight million readers and question-writers all seemed to have one thing in common--problems caused by men--she hit the road. Crisscrossing the country with her blue-haired poodle, Lewis Carroll, E. Jean stopped in every town named after a woman between Eden, Vermont and Tallulah, Louisiana to ask women the crucial question: What Do We Need Men For? E. Jean gave her rollicking road trip a sly, stylish turn when she deepened the story, creating a list called "The Most Hideous Men of My Life," and began to reflect on her own sometimes very dark history with the opposite sex. What advice would she have given to her past selves--as Miss Cheerleader USA and Miss Indiana University? Or as the fearless journalist, television host, and eventual advice columnist she became? E. Jean intertwines the stories of the fascinating people she meets on her road trip with her "horrible history with the male sex" (including mafia bosses, media titans, boyfriends, husbands, a serial killer, and a president), creating a decidedly dark yet hopeful, hilarious, and thrilling narrative. Her answer to the question What Do We Need Men For? will shock men and delight women. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Fascinating look into the psychology of the women of middle America through the eyes of E. Jean but also quite a look into E. Jean's own psyche, all under the guise of what to do about men. ( )
