A collection of essays spanning politics, criticism, and feminism from one of the most-watched young cultural observers of her generation, Roxane Gay.

"Pink is my favorite color. I used to say my favorite color was black to be cool, but it is pink - all shades of pink. If I have an accessory, it is probably pink. I read Vogue, and I'm not doing it ironically, though it might seem that way. I once live-tweeted the September issue."

In these funny and insightful essays, Roxane Gay takes us through the journey of her evolution as a woman (Sweet Valley High) of color (The Help) while also taking listeners on a ride through culture of the last few years (Girls, Django in Chains) and commenting on the state of feminism today (abortion, Chris Brown). The portrait that emerges is not only one of an incredibly insightful woman continually growing to understand herself and our society, but also one of our culture.

>Bad Feminist is a sharp, funny, and spot-on look at the ways in which the culture we consume becomes who we are, and an inspiring call-to-arms of all the ways we still need to do better.

so, it took a 3 hours for me to get "into" this book. At first it felt as if I was stuck in an elevator with a woman that would not stop talking about herself and it was driving me crazy! However, something changes halfway through and I thoroughly enjoyed her thoughts on Django, The Help, and reproductive health care . Giving it 3 stars plus one for great narration.

not what I expected

I very much enjoyed these collections of essays. I wish the book came with a list prerequisite reading/watching. If you are big feminist this is both a must and many things may already feel like you know. But so what listener!!! It is so nice to have someone restate the feminist motifs in such an inclusive and compassionate way. Also pop-culture is fun. Loosen up. Yes, now I feel like need to watch Girlfriends which is not a desire I was looking to cultivate but I also feel like that is Ok. Gay gives me the space to be a bad feminist, try my hardest and also like not... all at the same time.

Gay is a role model of how to be human

I loved it. It has opened my mind on a new way think, that I might have been ignorant of. I like that Gay suggest that we should be critical of very information that is thrown at us. We have a long way to go in this world as women.

So intelligently put together. She pulled me into the book, and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Wonderful Experience

Took me a while to get through, I think mainly because Gay tackled issues I thought I was on top of but soon realized..no, actually I wasn't. What this book did, how she crafted the dialog, striking, disturbing , truthful and funny, opened my perspective about many issues. I would highly recommend you go on that journey with her and listen to her words..

A need to finish

Gay is a talented writer but I don't care much for her cultural criticism. The personal essays and fiction were amazing! I will absolutly be reading more; but the political things are low hanging fruit and a bit of a let down.

needlessly sensational title but not bad

Roxane Gay is able to articulate beautifully and navigate much of the confusion surrounding feminism. She breaks down much of the rhetoric and provides a view threw her lense. It was refreshing to hear someone else say what I have believed for so long. I'm not alone in this crazy world and I too am a Bad Feminist.

Everyone should read "Bad Feminist".

Loved it. Roxane gay is just the conductor i needed on roots great trip. As a white woman I need a guide sometimes to navigate through current events, balance between myself and my ideals etc... I enjoyed the narrative agreed with much, disagreed with some, enjoyed the read. I appreciate Gay for her insight and great writing.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Finished in about 1 day and though majority of what she had to say was interesting. Gay went through so many different topics and bounced between a feminist manifesto, cultural critiques, book/ movie reviews, and parts of her life story.

I am not going to lie, I thought the chapters explaining the scrabble was cute but not very relevant. Regardless, this is her book and she’s allowed to write whatever she wants. That’s just a chapter I won’t read again.

I found a lot of what she had to say very true and insightful and myself being a young Latina, loved the her perspectives, albeit very similar yet different than mine, on movies such as the Help, Django, Twilight and the Hunger Games.

Overall, very enjoyable.

I love Roxane
