This is a vital book. Hand this out in schools, in the workplace, everywhere. It s also beautifully written. Olivia Colman Brilliant. Patriarchy 101 Amnesty UK Immersive and accessible Dazed Maya offers both a practical guide and a refreshing perspective on the challenges, barriers, and obstacles facing women today. This is 21st-century feminism in action. Angela Rayner, Deputy PMThe essential guide for women everywhere, The Pocket Guide to the Patriarchy is full to the brim with unbelievable stats, shocking figures and emboldening knowledge to understand and fight the patriarchal systems holding all of us back.Across the world, women are still denied opportunities and rights. The home remains the most dangerous place for women to be worldwide; with the majority of homicide victims who are women being killed by partners or relatives. In some countries, women who get abortions after they are raped face jail time. Less than 20 per cent of landholders in the world are women. Despite all these truths, many would prefer to blame women. For not demanding a seat at the table. For walking home alone at night. For not working hard enough to overcome the odds that are stacked against them. In her first fact-filled, inclusive and energising book, Maya Oppenheim supplies you with the unforgettable realities, real-world anecdotes and tales of resistance to help you combat denial and continued injustice as the far-right grows and women s rights come under attack. If yet another rebuttal of patriarchy leaves you lost for words, this book can be pulled out of your pocket. Utilising her breadth of experience as Women s Correspondent at The Independent - and as the only women s correspondent at a UK news outlet - Maya leaves no stone left unturned and sparks new conversations on:Women s HealthSexual ViolenceCriminal Justice SystemSex WorkPolicingFar RightAbortion RightsAnd much more across 22 chapters.Combining poignant stories with startling evidence, The Pocket Guide to the Patriarchy is a blazing examination of the systems rigged against us and offers a way forward that could prompt sustainable reform and build a better world for us all. This book will equip you with the facts, insights, and arguments to fight for total gender equality. Necessary reading for everyone. But most especially for men. Buy it for your next hinge date.

Twelve bobby pins, a tube of toothpaste, a bottle of water, a packet of chewing gum, two bus tickets, some keys, a toy car and a cookbook all find their way into Nancyâ ™s pouch. And thatâ ™s just for starters. Finally Alexanderâ ™s had enough. â ˜I canâ ™t take it any more!â ™ he shouts. â ˜Iâ ™m moving out!â ™ So Alexander moves into the room next to his sisterâ ™s. They make it all cosy, with a furry blanket and shelves for all his stuff. So itâ ™s just like his mumâ ™s pouch. Almost. The penultimate spread is Alexander sleeping with all his stuff strewn around him. The final spread is Nancy clearing out her pocket with a wink. It was time for Alexander to go. This is a heartwarming tale about a connection between a son and mother and a journey towards independence, beautifully brought to life.

A portable cockney kit, a pocket glossary of rhyming cockney slang, intended for quick and easy reference.Conventionally, a cockney is anyone born within the sound of Bow Bells - St Mary-le-Bow church, in London - but rather than fixating on Dirty Den from Eastenders, Dickensian villains or Pearly Kings and Queens, perhaps we should focus rather on comedian Arthur Smith s definition, which may be nearer the mark: a cockney is simply a non-posh Londoner .This pocket glossary is intended for quick and easy reference; it s a portable cockney kit. Supposedly rhyming cockney slang was originally invented to outwit authority and eavesdroppers. Whether that s true or not, it remains a closed language to the uninitiated. But its humour is too good to be missed, which is, in large part, the rationale for this compact, entertaining volume.Very rarely does a true cockney use his or her loaf of bread (head); a cockney uses simply their loaf . Where slang is abbreviated in this way, examples are given. Of course, rhyming cockney slang is constantly evolving and being added to, so this pocket guide cannot be the last word, but it offers a dependably solid foundation.Gemini PocketsFrom little guides to soothe your soul to all-access passes to the lives of pop icons, and from quizzes and puzzles for literature lovers to books on food, nature, fashion and more, Gemini Pockets are the perfect fit for your life and interests.

A pocket guide to Geordie, the English regional dialect spoken in Newcastle and on the banks of the river Tyne in the north-east of England.From Howay man! to Haddaway! become fluent in Geordie, including the variant found in historically coal-mining villages, Pitmatic .Geordie, spoken in Newcastle and on the banks of the river Tyne in the county of Northumberland in the north-east of England, is one of the most easily recognisable British dialects. At one time it was rare to hear Geordie elsewhere in the UK, but TV programmes such as Byker Grove, footballers such as Paul Gascoigne and Alan Shearer, and the presenters Ant and Dec have helped to make it more widely known.Geordie, which has its own distinctive vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, remains the best preserved British dialect largely because of its geographical isolation - there are parts of Scotland which are further south than Northumberland. Many present-day features of Geordie were once present in other dialects, but these were mostly eradicated when the English language was standardised during the eighteenth century.Further from the Tyne, the dialect becomes softer, sounding almost Cumbrian before the western boundary is reached; and in the colliery villages, a distinctive variety of Geordie, Pitmatic , is spoken, in which terms used in mining have entered everyday speech.This compact, handy book will help you to understand the English of the north-east.Gemini PocketsFrom little guides to soothe your soul to all-access passes to the lives of pop icons, and from quizzes and puzzles for literature lovers to books on food, nature, fashion and more, Gemini Pockets are the perfect fit for your life and interests.

Know your from Arbroath smokies from your wynds, your trews from your sporran, and . . . lang may yer lum reek!Some say that Scots use more Scottish slang than English, but whether that’s true or not, the speech of most Scots is certainly peppered with slang. So, whether you’re visiting Glesga (Glasgow), home to Weegies, short for Glaswegians, the Granite City (Aberdeen) or the capital – known as Auld Reekie for the same reason that London was once, and sometimes still is, known as the Big Smoke – this concise guide will come in handy.There are many old Scottish sayings dating back to our grandparents’ day and beyond, but there are also many fairly recent inventions. Some of the older ones are rarely used now, which may be just as well, as they may baffle even a Scot, particularly depending on which part of Scotland you’re in.Scottish English varies greatly from the Highlands to South Ayrshire and from the east of the country to the west, with different words sometimes being used to describe the same thing in different places.Some sayings will ‘make yer heid mince’, some are poetic and many will just make you laugh. This is a book for visitors to Scotland and for anyone crossing the border, in either direction. It will also evoke a pang of homesickness in any Scottish expatriate.While a concise guide can’t possibly be exhaustive, it can, as this handy pocket book does, offer a revealing and entertaining selection of words and idioms in common usage.Gemini PocketsFrom little guides to soothe your soul to all-access passes to the lives of pop icons, and from quizzes and puzzles for literature lovers to books on food, nature, fashion and more, Gemini Pockets are the perfect fit for your life and interests.
