HAVE YOU EVERa Obsessed over your body's 'problem areas'? Killed an hour on the Sidebar of Shame? Wondered whether to try '50 Sex Tips to Please Your Man'? Felt worse after doing any of the above? Holly and Rhiannon grew up reading glossy mags and, like most women, thought of them as just a bit of fun. But over time they started to feel uneasy - not just about magazines, but about music videos, page 3, and women being labelled frigid, princesses or tramps. So, following the amazing success of their Vagenda blog, they wrote this book. Welcome to your indispensable guide to the madness of women's media.

Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett and Holly Baxter, after laughing at absurd magazine articles about women's issues, felt uneasy about the patronizing tone of such media. This led them to create The Vagenda blog in 2012, culminating in a humorous book that encourages women to demand a media representation that reflects their true selves.

Through dark comedy and keen insights, the narrative explores themes of professional failure and personal reinvention, offering a humorous yet poignant look at modern life and the media landscape. The protagonist's journey is filled with wit and relatable struggles, capturing the absurdities of contemporary journalism.
