Empowering,
By red_fang (Monterrey, NL, MX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Feminine Connection: Freeing the Female Psyche (Paperback)
The author adequately disentangles the roots of female identity rejection from a psychoanalytic perspective. The book is very easy to follow, though, and it offers relief for anyone who feels burdened by femininity or the female gender role. The author suggests through the book that some women are vulnerable to the subtle but persistent cultural conditioning that teaches to value the masculine and reject the feminine, giving place to feelings of worthlessness. I felt very empowered with the book's dialogue, that discusses thoroughly all the wonderful meanings and facets of femininity without enclosing it in any one of its dimensions. Recommended!

This review is from: The Feminine Connection: Freeing the Female Psyche (Paperback)
Hello. I am actually the author of the book. If you as a woman struggle with your self esteem, this book may inspire you to value and honor your feminine identity, something that women who are successful by patriarchal standards have to contend with. The second theme of the book is to envision a society with the masculine and the feminine qualities in balance.
