Die letzten Tage des Patriarchats

Can men still hold the door open for women after the feminist revolution? And are compliments allowed? Society seems uncertain. While people all over the world are resisting sexism and harassment, women still earn less than men, do more cleaning and caregiving, and end up poorer. Margarete Stokowski highlights wounds that many would prefer to ignore, as resignation is not a solution for her. She writes about injustices that we have long grown accustomed to because they are so commonplace. This includes discussions about women's bodies and how they are commented on, about pornography and unisex toilets, about #Metoo and #Aufschrei debates, but also about right-wing extremism and the question of why feminism and racism are mutually exclusive. Margarete Stokowski is one of the most important voices of contemporary feminism. Her writings are encouraging.
