Publisher's summary

“Like being deemed a witch hundreds of years ago, being presumed a slut today is cause for ostracism, abuse, and death”.... Archetypes of “witch” and “slut” have been used to police female sexuality and punish women; now, feminists are reclaiming them as positive affirmations. This book unearths the sex positive feminist legacy of the witch in art, music, politics, and popular culture, connecting the fictional witch we love to emulate and fear with real women, past and present.

Kristen J. Sollee is instructor at the New School and founding editrix of Slutist, an award-winning sex positive feminist website.

Know your history

As a third generation witch (that I know of), I've only recently begun to explore and appreciate the heritage of these gifts. Having resources which take our tribe out of the urban legend and history books and being these amazing women into the light and perspective of modern day is crucial to normalizing and humanizing our existence. Thank you, Kristen! I've already downloaded the next book 🤘🏻🖤

Every woman should read

Amazing history of women and how we have been denigrated for owning our own autonomy or sexual identity. Every woman should read this book.

Ella

Great insight into the legacy of the witch and the roll she plays in society in our modern day culture. Highly recommend to spark the inner witch all women posses.

Well studied, well written. An ambitious summary of a crucial topic over a large time span and many aspects of society.

These conversations about women and accusations placed against them for their individual power and free expression are long overdue. This book is a drop in the bucket of what I hope our world comes to recognize.

So perfect!

Perfect blend of witches, sluts, and feminists! She’s such a brilliant writer, speaking on topics that matter so much. I love that we’re reclaiming these words as our own!

This Feminist Crone recommends it!

Sollee's connections really resonated with my personal experience and education of all three labels.

Humanizing women as a whole!

I loved learning from the past and present events mentioned about the truth of how women are vilified and demonized; for being human, having desires, and expressing themselves. 10/10 would recommend reading this book.
