You're doing it wrong : a history of bad & bonkers advice to women

Cooke, Kaz, 1962-2021
Book
A fresh, funny and furious look at the terrible advice women have been told for centuries. Stroll with Kaz Cooke through instructions on how to day-drink, wear a dress made of arsenic, pretend you're an idiot, have sex with a billionaire biker, curtsey, get properly harassed at work, exercise your nose, oppress other women and frighten your uterus. Using hundreds of amazing photos and illustrations, and the experiences of generations of women in her own family, "You're Doing It Wrong" shows how advice has been a weapon against us - and how by recognising it, we can ignore it. And totally cheer up.
