really liked it

First of all the 90's were an interesting time especially for women. Yarrow has done a great job examining the way powerful women of this era were treated through the media and our culture in general. 

The 90's could have been so promising for gender equality. Stand out women that used their voices and spoke up should have been celebrated, instead they were manipulated by the media for breaking the mold of what societies expectations of female behavior was. They were then labeled as "Bitchy". This is something I think we still struggle with in society today. 

Yarrow examines a wide range of women. From the music industry to political figures to fictional female characters as well.

Thoroughly researched and executed clearly and precisely 90's Bitch is a must read on gender politics! Understanding where we came from, and knowing what went wrong to change it for future generations. This one really makes you think. Enjoyed this one a lot! Out June 19th!
