About the book

About the book:

But it's okay to say patriarchal poop, right?

The daughter only wants to play with Barbies that look like walking eating disorders. The son dreams of becoming like his soccer idol - who unfortunately is on trial for violence against women. Or a gangster rapper. That's great. Welcome to the everyday life of a normal family in which the parents want to raise their children without stereotypes - and then everyday life gets in the way! Author and mother Alexandra Zykunov explains how the patriarchy doesn't stop at enlightened parents, what the hell you should say when your teenage son suddenly makes sexist jokes and your daughter is already struggling with her looks at elementary school. With merciless honesty and her typically angry and witty tone, the bestselling author writes about the daily struggles of countless parents between expectations and reality. A book for everyone who knows: Feminist parenting is damn hard, talking to kids about patriarchal poop even harder. But both pay off in the end. So, hopefully.
