ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A fresh, lucid, and brilliant text about feminism, couples, and respect.

"Hello, my name is Mara, and we will be a couple at some point. I have had several (failed) relationships, so I thought I should write to you and avert another disaster. With this book, I open up my life and the life of my fellow women to you: our darkest experiences and also the ones that seem the silliest but take a toll on us because we are women. For only then will you understand the size of the problem we face as a society, and how much we need your help to fix it."

Whether you are that future boyfriend, still a little lost about this thing called feminism, or the girl waiting eagerly for her next relationship, within these pages I tell you of the glass ceiling, of sexual harassment, of why it bothers us to be asked if we are "on our period", or why they let us into nightclubs for free. Spoiler: it is not an advantage; it is a trap. I invite you to reflect on how beauty standards affect us, why we complain so much that our boyfriends never seem to have enough affective responsibility--in their defense, no one ever taught them how--why you have never (or almost never) seen your father cry. You will discover that inequities are plentiful and so common that you don't even question them because they seem normal to you.

Mara Mario is a journalist and a women's rights activist with a straightforward, and acid-sharp narrative. Through this original and entertaining book, addressed to women and men of all ages, she dismantles the most generalized interactions--based on patriarchy--to suggest a new way that promotes equal and respectful relationships. By the time you finish reading these pages, you will surely be one of those people who makes our society a little-bit-more-equitable and a happy place for us all.
