The best performance in a TGC book so far, great personal anecdotes to accompany the lectures.

Story
Take a funny and illuminating tour of the female body with award-winning comedian Sara Pascoe. Women have so much going on, what with boobs and jealousy and menstruating and broodiness and sex and infidelity and pubes and wombs and jobs and memories and emotions and the past and the future and themselves and each other. Here's a book that deals with all of it. Sara Pascoe has joked about femininity and sexuality on stage and screen, but now she has a book to talk about it all for a bit longer.

An incredibly funny and really well-researched read! I recommend it to everyone interested in the intersection of comedy, politics and science.
