The bestselling classic that redefined our view of the relationship between beauty and female identity.

In today's world, women have more power, legal recognition, and professional success than ever before. Alongside the evident progress of the women's movement, however, writer and journalist Naomi Wolf is troubled by a different kind of social control, which, she argues, may prove just as restrictive as the traditional image of homemaker and wife. It's the beauty myth, an obsession with physical perfection that traps the modern woman in an endless spiral of hope, self-consciousness, and self-hatred as she tries to fulfill society's impossible definition of "the flawless beauty."

This book is now a bit dated but still a great read. I am going to find an updated version now that is inclusive of all women including LGBTQIA+ Community.

The Truth will set you free but not without pissing you off first.

Insightful and inspiring to everyone that wants to understand the society we live. Why so many people is depressed without an apparent reason? Are smartphones the reason why people don't talk to each other in person? No. It is society and its ridiculous human made rules about how men and women should, since they are born, belong to different worlds, separated and prejudiced.

Everyone should read this book
