Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling: And Other Feminist Fairy Tales

by Nicole Miles, Laura Lane, Ellen Haun

O tej książce

This wickedly wise (and wisecracking) parody of classic fairy tales redefines happily ever after for the modern feminist era.You know what? It's super creepy to kiss a woman who is unconscious. And you know what else? The way out of poverty isn't by marrying a rich dude -- or by wearing fragile footwear, for that matter. And while we're at it, why is the only woman who lives with seven men expected to do the cooking, cleaning, and laundry?Fairytales need a reboot, and comedy queens Laura Lane and Ellen Haun are the women to do it. In Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling, they offer a rollicking parody of classic (read: patriarchal) tales that turns sweet, submissive princesses into women who are perfectly capable of being the heroes of their own stories. Mulan climbs the ranks in the army but wages a different war when she finds out she's getting paid less than her fellow male captains, Wendy learns never to trust a man-boy stalking her window, Sleeping Beauty's prince gets a lesson in consent, and more.Busting with laugh-out-loud, razor-sharp twists to these outdated tales, Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling is fun, magical, necessary, and totally woke.Introduction --The Little Mermaid gets a vagina --Sleeping Beauty gets woke --Snow White the seven microaggressions --Cinderella the glass ceiling --Little Red Riding Hood the big bad wolfcaller --Rapunzel's armpits --Mulan's moola --Never, never man --Beauty and the beast the other kidnapped women you haven't heard about --Some princesses are gay --Under nobody's thumb --@therealgoldilocks --#thethreebears
