FEMINISMO OR BARBARIE, IN CARTAGENA THINK

Have you ever wondered about such controversial topics as female sexuality, sorority, prostitution or the image of women in movies?

Have you ever asked yourself seemingly silly questions like it's possible to be a feminist and wear heels?

If so, this book talks to you.

Feminism or barbarism, volume 1, brings together 25 articles by Pilar Aguilar published in different media, some of them shared more than 30,000 times in social networks, generated controversial sounded.

25 darts against the topics and the argument of patriarchy.

Because feminism seeks to liberate all women, not that we accept oppression in the name of freedom.

As Mary Wollstonecraft said, it's not about making the chains shine, but about getting rid of them.
