#subdaybuddyread #femalecriminals #femaleasmonster #maneater #LizzieBordentrial

“Within the prevailing models of the human mind women were seen as somewhat less evolved than nmen and with a corresponding lack of rational control over their actions—barely protected from the underlying degeneracy by male control,especially over their sexuality...the criminal woman is a monster.”
Late 19th century attitudes “science” about women.

We teach girls to be likable, and not to be a #maneater. I believe, like Adichie says, that this does a disservice to girls and women.

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Maria514626 Yes, it is. For me, I have to work on creating that karma. So I‘m fighting hard for our democratic challenger to a puke-inducing, NRA-sponsored republican Congressman. He is my local example of an old boys club, and I live in a deeply red district. So I‘m trying to manage my expectations, but also proud that our challenger is polling within 9 points of the incumbent. #startlocal #getoutthevote #getinvolved #fightthepateiarchy 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft Amen sistah. Couldn‘t agree more. 6y

For some reason #maneater reminds me of Stranger In A Strange Land. Although it was a toss up with The Girl With All The Gifts. #octoberxfiles

Cinfhen I‘ve heard of this book but know very little about it...has a great #GoodReads score (edited) 6y
Chrissyreadit @Cinfhen I read this when I was in high school or college. I just remember I liked it and the end of it. 6y

#OctoberXFiles Im going literal for this prompt...A real life adventure to New Guinea in 1945 in the final days of World War II. 24 bored soldiers and members of the Women‘s Army Corps embark on an aeronautic joy ride over a newly “discovered” landscape — mountains populated by thousands of combative #ManEater(s). But the joyride turns into an aerial disaster when the plane crashes, killing 19 onboard & leaving 3 survivors in the jungles below

Eggs Ooooo 6y

Don't know exactly why, but #Maneater made me think of the first Merry Gentry book.

This pic shows the German edition, which I bought for a friend.
