Gendered Worlds

I rented Gendered Worlds for my Women's and Gender Studies class, and it has been the most eye-opening and wonderful book I've ever read in my career as a student! I have learned so much about gender, biological sex, and sexuality, as well as the various forms of privilege and oppression that are prevalent in the world (even in America!). I am so inspired to use the knowledge I have gained to listen to those who need to be heard and to support various organizations and causes. Also, so much research has gone into the making of this book; there are about 50+ academic sources cited for each chapter. Judy Root Aulette and Judith Wittner have done a wonderful job organizing this material. If you want a book that will: challenge you to be a better person, help you recognize your privilege, and allow you to view gender and sexuality in a different light, then this is the book for you! This book is worth the hefty price; it is life-changing. Outstanding. A+.

… I had an opportunity to purchase this item at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. I know many people think if someone bought the item at a discount or free, the review may be biased, but that is not the case with my review. Regardless of what I've paid for the item, my review is truthful and I write my reviews after testing the item myself or with the help of my wife and kids.***This is my honest review of the Handle For 30 oz Tumblers ,This is a very nice 30oz tumbler handle that works without any issues on all my various 30oz tumblers.This handle is exactly as described on the product description page.This handle stays put and doesn't fall down once on. It offers tremendous grip and the handle is very comfortable to hold.I haven't noticed any scratching or line marks after use and it simply works.I would highly recommend this tumbler handle for any brand 30oz tumbler.

Rented it for a Women's Studies class, and I liked the book. Hard to really judge it as we only used a couple of the chapters (don't you love paying for college books you hardly use?), but the parts I did read were very insightful and covered issues from all people: male, female, white, black, hispanic, asian, heterosexual, gay, bisexual, transgender, etc. The attention to males at certain parts was especially nice since some of the other readings in my class (although most don't) paint the white straight male as the "Big Bad". Price was decent enough for a college book rental (about $22) as well. All and all, it was a pretty good "purchase".

This is an amazing book when it comes to understanding Gender. I needed this book for my gender studies class but it doesn't feel like a textbook. It will leave you asking more questions than it will give you answers but it does help you learn more about why things are the way they are, and why people are fighting for change.

It's a text book for a required class, how much can you like a text book

This text is truly eye-opening and inspiring. I rented it for a class I took last term but I am considering buying it so that I can study the chapters we didn't cover in the class.

By definition, feminism is a movement that allegedly fights for equal rights for both women and men, this book does little to support that however. The (female) authors do little in terms of presenting their personal solutions on world's issues on inequalities and supporting egalitarian approaches. Instead they go on and on portraying the white male as the ultimate cause for world's problems while pushing an agenda of political correctness and role reversals (their view on so called EQUALITY) through skillfully crafted and emotionally charged messages, most often paraphrasing and quoting other sources, which for the most part are women. You see, in their view men are reduced to no more than illiterate cavemen who beat their wives, abuse their children, sexually harass female coworkers and bully everyone who are non-heterosexuals).The biggest hypocrisy with the feminist movement is that that it wants to stand for EGALITARIAN goals while calling itself FEMinism - dare to call it "MENinism" and they'll nail you to a cross and call you a (hetero)sexist.

I got the book just fine! Quick delivery, no fuss. Turned out not so helpful in my class, but that's not the seller's fault!
