As continuing the woman's guide book, Full Frontal Feminism, Jessica Valenti shares her thoughts about certain topics that many might find controversial. These subjects may include: money, domestic violence, labor, birth control, abortion, and etc. In a humerous tone she elucidates these topics in wit and jokes. But there are times whenJessica is serious-mostly during the more demanding topics. Her message is universal. All though I must confess her opinions are far different than mine. Though our views are different, her points are considerable. But there were some points that we shared: Labor. Even though women are now able to work we are still being mistreated. In the words of Jessica Valenti" Some of the obstacles that existed decades ago are still around in force. Whether it's pay inequity, harassment, or outrights lies about the very existence of working women -we're still facing plenty of hurdles. "
Tone: Humerous, Sarcastic
