With her refreshingly audacious voice&nbsp;and&nbsp;unmistakable&nbsp;art style, Florence Given explores all corners of the conversation, from overcoming&nbsp;insecurity projection and the tendency to find comfort in other women's flaws to&nbsp;how to recognize and fight against&nbsp;the male gaze and other toxic cultural baggage&nbsp;and embracing sex and body positivity. Women Don't Owe You Pretty&nbsp;is here to remind us that everyone is valuable as they are and we owe the world nothing, least of all&nbsp;pretty.

Religion & Spirituality

In this bold, illustrated guide, bestselling author and podcaster Florence Given encourages women to rediscover their joy, reject toxic wellness culture, and redefine feminism for themselves. Women Living Deliciously wants us to fall in love with our lives. It will help women uncover the sense of awe and wonder that has been buried by the layers of shame, perfectionism and self-objectification that get piled on us by the patriarchy. For too long we have internalized the belief that our bodies are things to be looked at--instead of lived in. That it's embarrassing to fully express ourselves. That we cannot trust the parts of ourselves that are so full of desire. This book will unpack the many barriers women face when trying to access joy so that they can discover the delicious life that's theirs for the taking. International-bestselling author Florence Given wants to restore your lust for life and your sense of agency, giving you the courage and permission to inch closer to the wildly expansive life that you FULLY deserve--not in the future, not when you're perfect, not when you're prettier--but right now.

WOMEN DON'T OWE YOU PRETTY will tell you to... 
love sex, hate sexism, 
protect your goddamn energy, 
life is short, dump them, 
And that you owe men nothing, least of all pretty. 
Florence's debut book will explore all progressive corners of the feminist conversation; from insecurity projection and refusing to find comfort in other women's flaws, to deciding whether to date or dump them, all the way through to unpacking the male gaze and how it shapes our identity. 
WOMEN DON'T OWE YOU PRETTY is an accessible leap into feminism, for people at all stages of their journey who are seeking to reshape and transform the way they view themselves. In a world that tells women we're either not enough or too much, it's time we stop directing our anger and insecurities onto ourselves, and start fighting back to re-shape the toxic structures of our patriarchal society. 
Florence's book will help you to tackle and challenge the limiting narrative you have been bombarded with your whole life, and determine feminism on your own terms. After all, you are the love of your own life.
