Misogyny is everywhere. Courtship, duty and marriage are dying phenomenons - nails in the coffin to female happiness. Our bodies are an inventory of pain and weakness. Evidently, it is a very bad time to be female.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOr so we're told.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eGood Slut\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Zoe Strimpel examines the myths that submerge women in narratives of victimhood and fragility, instead offering a much-needed dose of realism. Because while women's agency is increasingly under threat by the return of 'traditional' values, fuelled by fear-mongering discourse from both the political left and right, it's unequivocally never been a better time to be a woman. It may be complex terrain, yet women's pain, injustices, experiences and achievements are taken more seriously now than ever before. What's more, the opportunities in free societies are endless: whether sexual freedom, bodily autonomy or financial independence, women can, should and will - if they desire - have it all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCourageous, defiant and incisive in its approach, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eGood Slut\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e argues that liberation - true liberation - comes not from fear or shame, but from making the most out of the intertwined forces of money, power, and, of course, sex. A fierce celebration of female agency and choice, it is a timely reminder to get back in touch with the joy and freedoms available to us - if only we dare to grasp it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConstable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished: March 2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages: 256\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e15.6 x 2.6 x 23.8 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57529543983488,"sku":"9781408720974","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1331\/9421\/files\/GoodSlut-HowMoney_SexandPowerSetWomenFree-ZoeStrimpel.jpg?v=1772721551","url":"https:\/\/shop.freud.org.uk\/products\/good-slut-how-money-sex-and-power-set-women-free-zoe-strimpel","provider":"Freud Museum Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
