The Second Sex - Simone de Beauvoir
Synopsis
The Second Sex delves into the concept of feminism by looking at historical facts and biases, and explains how being a woman implies making yourself smaller so that you can fit in today's society, and how we reacted and fight for it.
Why
I've always intrigued by themes related to feminism, and would like to bring this into my future projects/researches. in her book The second sex, Simone de Beauvoir discusses the treatment of women in the present society as well as throughout all of history. I like her argues about "What is woman?", and that man is considered the default, while woman is considered the "Other". In addition, about the issues of women should get rid of the responsibility of "giving birth" etc.
⭑A Cyborg Manifesto - Donna Haraway
Synopsis
Haraway introduces the potential of a completely new ontology of hybridization of nature and culture through the cyborg, a combination of machine and organism. Haraway’s use of the cyborg illustrates her conceptualizations of socialism and feminism in the examinations of dichotomies such as nature/culture, mind/body, and idealism/materialism. Her cyborgs are a blending of imagination and material reality.
Why
I've always fascinated with the hybrid of human with other creatures and materials. I would like to explore the boundaries and possibilities of those. Furthermore, seeking the connections between my self identities and this manifesto.
A cyborg is a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organ ism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction.
Everything is a cyborg. We are cyborgs.
⭑The Ethical Sluts: The guide to infinite sexual possibilities - Dossie Easton & Janet Hardy
Synopsis
The Ethical sluts is a self-help and self-learning book, focusing on non-monogamy and polyamorous guidance.
Why
I've read this book several times over the years. For me, it is a book about self-understanding beyond "mainstream sexual ethics," and it guides you through different types of relationships. From my previous projects, love, sex, and relationships are topics that I delve into. Through these practices, I gain a deeper understanding of myself and my identities.
Witches, Sluts, Feminists: Conjuring the Sex Positive - Kristen J. Sollee

Why
