I like the subject matter, but I was hoping to use some of this in my Introduction to Women’s Studies course but the language is a bit too coarse and flippant for my students.

Update: I think the introduction to the book is a little too forceful. The hardest part of teaching Intro is dispelling myths about feminism in the beginning, and I think a gentle approach is needed. The rest of the book is great and I think the matter-of-fact tone is perfect. The language itself doesn’t bother me so much, it was the introductory tone that was bothersome.
