    What We're Told Not to Talk About (But We're Going to Anyway)
    • This book is about vaginas. Fanny, cunt, flower, foo-foo, tuppence, whatever you want to call it, almost half of the world's population has one. Was Jessica Ennis on her period they day she won Olympic Gold? What do you do when you're living on the streets and pregnant? What does it feel like to have a poo after you've given birth? We all have questions, but it's not seen as very polite to talk about our fanny; in fact it is downright rude. This is an important, taboo-breaking book that shares the stories of pregnancy and periods, orgasms and the menopause, from women from all walks of life. From refugee camps in Calais to Oscar-winning actresses, to Nimko's own story of living with FGM, each woman shares their own relationship with their vagina and its impact on their life

      What We're Told Not to Talk About (But We're Going to Anyway)
    • "What do you do when you're homeless and on your period? What does it feel like to have a poo following childbirth? How do we learn to love our bodies again after they've been abused? It's rude. It's improper. It's disgusting. All justifications that leave women's questions about their bodies unanswered. And activist Nimko Ali has had enough of it. Following her own experience of FGM and rebuilding her relationship with her body, this important book contains the true stories of women sharing what they've always been told is secret and shameful - from east London to Ethiopia, from pregnancy to menopause. This is a call to arms. This is a cry to reclaim the narrative around our fannies and to refuse the taboos that silent us."--From publisher

      What We're Told Not to Talk about
    • Wie fühlt sich eine Vagina nach der Geburt an? Woher weiß ich, dass ich wirklich einen Orgasmus hatte? Wie lerne ich meinen Körper nach einem Missbrauch wieder lieben? Die britische Frauenrechtsaktivistin Nimko Ali spricht aus, worüber immer noch schamerfüllt geschwiegen wird. Denn bei allem Fortschritt in Sachen Feminismus und Emanzipation ist es erschreckend, mit welcher Unwissenheit und Verachtung die weibliche Anatomie immer noch betrachtet wird, sofern sie nicht straff, ordentlich bedeckt, verschönert und enthaart ist. Ali hat hierzu mit vielen Frauen von Äthiopien bis London gesprochen und vereint deren Stimmen in einem Buch. Ihre Sammlung intimer und unzensierter Lebensgeschichten räumt auf mit den Mythen rund um den weiblichen Körper und ist ein Aufruf, Erfahrungen zu teilen und die gesellschaftlichen Tabus zu brechen, die Frauen zur Passivität und zum Schweigen verurteilen. Bewegend, kraftvoll und direkt: ein Manifest über die großartige Vielfalt weiblicher Sexualität, über Unwissenheit, Diskriminierung und die Notwendigkeit über all das zu sprechen.
