Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions

Books

Steinem's most diverse and timeless collection of essays are found here, from the humorous expose "I Was a Playboy Bunny" to the moving tribute to her mother, "Ruth's Song." The satirical and hilarious "If Men Could Menstruate" is alone worth the price of admission. Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions has sold over half a million copies since its original publication in 1983 and was the first published collection of Gloria's essays. Given that she was writing on sexual harassment, genital mutilation, unequal pay for equal work, and other humiliating inequities facing women, she often says that she wishes it hadn't still been relevant enough for additional printings.
