Product Description: Body Outlaws collects a wide range of essays that give collective voice to the first feminist generation to consciously repudiate the dominant beauty standard in order to feel at home in their bodies. Writers like Nomy Lamm and Lisa Jervis (editor of Bitch magazine) explore new paradigms of women who use their bodies as symbols of power, sites of resistance, and mediums of expression.
