Reviewed by coffeedate.with.meWe should all be sluts! If being a slut means dressing how you want and embracing sexual freedom, then why not? For decades, slut-shaming has been a powerful tool to control women, reinforcing systems of capitalism, classism, and racism. Ashley traces the roots of sexism and its entanglement with religion, race, and violence, while keeping a personal tone. This, as well as the language, her short explanations of big words and the format makes the book very accessible and easy to follow. Knowledge is power, so read this book, and talk about it with your friends and family.
