Pretty good

First book I’ve read with a feminist lens analyzing society. Pretty neat I learned a lot.

Well researched and explicated theory.

I finished this book quickly. I didn't know what to expect when I started, but it was really enjoyable. I like how the book was structured. Each idea flowed into the next. very easy to understand the author's perspective.

Thought provoking deep look into meat "traditions"

I was expecting a paradigm challenging deep dive into traditions and the patriarchy, this was so much more than that. It exceeded my expectations. Carol Adams takes a scholarly view into western society's views on women and how they tie into our habits. Her personal observations and journey told through sections of the book at a personal touch. A very enjoyable listen (or read).

An incredible collection of thoughts

A brilliant collection of mind opening and life changing ideas, well articulated and digestible, even if challenging and alarming. Listen to this with an open mind and your life will never be the same.

Life interupting illumination

Like the realization of class solidarity. This is a shift inducing collection of observations skillfully sewed together. This read dismantles another division; between our non human cohabitants & us as female humans. Highlighting our shared fate of oppression by the sadistic grasp of misogynistic objectification and commoditization.
