Drawing on twelve powerful stories of women around the world - their hopes, dramas, disappointments, tragedies, intimacies and successes - this book explains how the myths of toxic femininity trap women into trying to live up to impossible standards of perfection, not for their well-being but to fit into male-dominated narratives. Rooted in centuries of patriarchal power, toxic femininity pressures women to conform to limiting ideals, leaving them at risk of being overwhelmed by shame, depression, self-doubt and helplessness. As these stories reveal, toxic femininity can affect any woman - shaping her identity and reducing her agency. Yet these women's stories also offer hope, showing the path to an agentic independent femininity and self-love.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.51 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 29, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54091054514483,"sku":"9781837919413","price":27.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/iREtBcAQai9781837919413.webp?v=1789613223","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-myths-of-toxic-femininity-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
