Everyone should read this book. Though if you have any empathy at all, it's going to break your heart and piss you off.

Amazingly researched, but let down by the lack of intersectionality. The main focus was on American and British cishet women. Other than that Criado Perez exposes the gender data gap and makes compelling arguments around increasing female representation to make a more accessible world for all.

Truly proud of myself for taking the time to really dig into this book, as I'm walking with this incredible depth of knowledge about all of the pervasive and unrecognized ways the female population is discriminated against at every level of our lives. And how so much of it is the result of failing to ask women any questions. From prescription drugs to low income housing to disaster relief, this book is an absolute must read. I particularly appreciated how the author made space to talk about countries other than the US and UK, making this a global perspective on discrimination and gender gaps rather than a white European one.
