In spite of language, in spite of intelligence and intuition and sympathy, one can never really communicate anything to anybody. The essential substance of every thought and feeling remains incommunicable, locked up in the impenetrable strong-room of the individual soul and body. Our life is a sentence of perpetual solitary confinement.
Aldous Huxley (via petrichour)

I would to learn more about feminism, do you have any book recommendations ?
I suppose you might be expecting a thoughtfully curated list of essential reading material, essays, etc, but the truth is if you want to learn more about feminism - the struggles faced by women and the road to liberation - just go out and talk to them. No academic tome or pithy blog article will ever compare to listening to the life experience of a woman.
