"...powerful and necessary inspiration for the contemporary listener." (AudioFile magazine)
An updated third edition of the renowned feminist’s most diverse and timeless collection of essays, with a new foreword written by Emma Watson and new material written and read by Gloria Steinem.
Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions has sold over half a million copies since its original publication in 1983, acclaimed for its witty, warm, and life-changing view of the world, "as if women mattered". Steinem's truly personal writing is here, from the now-famous exposé, "I Was a Playboy Bunny", to the moving tribute to her mother "Ruth's Song (Because She Could Not Sing It)". Her prescient essays on female genital mutilation and the difference between erotica and pornography are still referenced and relevant today, and the hilarious satire, "If Men Could Menstruate”, resonates as much as ever.
As Watson writes of Steinem in her foreword, “She makes what otherwise can be arduous and depressing reading into something not only relatable, but also enjoyable.... Her plain common sense, calling things out as they are, will make you laugh out loud. This is her superpower.”

Her sharp, incisive articles, written decades ago, are still relevant today. Maybe even more so, as generations have taken for granted the rights and liberties afforded to them by the struggles of their mothers or grandmothers. Her fighting spirit reminds me of the wonderful woman I married, who fights similar battles of gender pay gap and other inequalities at work or in society.
As a father of two, a son and a daughter, I want my kids to realize their potential in whatever field they choose without being bound by pre-defined roles and expectations or limited by society preconceptions of what they can and cannot do based on their gender, race or social class.
Speaking out for equality is still relevant and mote important than ever!
