A new century, maybe, but what the mainstream media sees as 'womens interests' remains totally predictable. Inappropriate Behaviour is a collection by writers who neither wish to be Bridget Jones or look like Jennifer Aniston, nor do they want to experience plastic surgery or winter in Taos or make things with radiccio. Subject matter? Molls, mothers, Satanism, Kenneth Anger, and slash-lit.
Inspired by Naomi Klein's No Logo, Inappropriate Behaviour rejects the globalization of culture. It asserts the individual's right to live, dress and party in ways that reflect personal choices and not the commercial dictates of 'style'. It is essential reading for all women who refuse to sell their souls for a pair of Manolo Blahniks and don't want to to live on nouvelle cuisine.
