This book offers a witty and outrageous look at the diverse female stereotypes through the ages. The Guerrilla Girls explore the origins, history, and significance of stereotypes such as Old Maid, Trophy Wife, and Prostitute with a Heart of Gold. They delve into sexual slurs, the evolution of butches and femmes, and the lives of real and fictional women who have become stereotypes, from Aunt Jemima to Tokyo Rose to June Cleaver. The book aims to reclaim and celebrate these negative terms, thereby reducing their pejorative power.
