The Beauty Myth
This is Vintage Feminism: classic feminist texts in short form with a new introduction by the author. Every day, women around the world are confronted with a dilemma - how to look. In a society embroiled in a cult of female beauty and youthfulness, pressure on women to conform physically is constant and all-pervading. In this shortened edition you will find the essence of Wolf's groundbreaking book. It is a radical, gripping and frank expose of the tyranny of the beauty myth, its oppressive function and the destructive obsession it engenders.
The Beauty Myth
In the struggle for women's equality, there is one subject still shrouded in silence - women's compulsive pursuit of beauty. The myth of female beauty challenges every woman, every day of her life.
Naomi Wolf exposes the tyranny of the beauty myth through the ages and its oppressive function today, in the home and at work, in literature and the media, in relationships between men and women, between women and women. With pertinent and intelligent examples, she confronts the beauty industry and its advertising and uncovers the reasons why women are consumed by this destructive obsession.
The Pfizer Papers
The Pfizer Papers features new reports written by WarRoom/DailyClout research volunteers, which are based on the primary source Pfizer clinical trial documents released under court order and on related medical literature. The book shows in high relief that Pfizer’s mRNA COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial was deeply flawed and that the pharmaceutical company knew by November 2020 that its vaccine was neither safe nor effective. The reports detail vaccine-induced harms throughout the human body, including to the reproductive system; show that women suffer vaccine-related adverse events at a 3:1 ratio; expose that vaccine-induced myocarditis is not rare, mild, or transient; and, shockingly, demonstrate that the mRNA vaccines have created a new category of multi-system, multi-organ disease, which is being called “CoVax Disease.”
Despite the fact that Pfizer committed in its own clinical trial protocol to follow the placebo arm of its trial for twenty-four months, Pfizer vaccinated approximately 95 percent of placebo recipients by March 2021, thus eliminating the trial’s control group and making it impossible for comparative safety determinations to be made.
Just as importantly, The Pfizer Papers makes it clear that the US Food and Drug Administration knew about the shortfalls of Pfizer’s clinical trial as well as the harms caused by the company’s mRNA COVID vaccine product, thus highlighting the FDA’s abject failure to fulfill its mission to “[protect] the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, and medical devices.”
The Pfizer Papers offers an in-depth look at how Big Pharma, the US government, and healthcare entities stand protected behind the broad legal immunity provided by the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act) when creating, prescribing, and administering vaccines; and, under that shield of protection, do what is best for their bottom lines rather than for the health and well-being of Americans.

Vagina
Kniha Naomi Wolfové, autorky úspěšné a oceňované knihy Mýtus krásy, se v roce 2012 stala mezinárodním bestsellerem. Wolfová patří mezi autorky třetí vlny feminismu, pro něž je sex nejen osobně důležitý a potřebný, ale je také závažným sociálním tématem. Svou nejnovější knihu se rozhodla napsat na základě vlastní traumatické zkušenosti se sexuální dysfunkcí, která jejím sexuálním prožitkům vzala „duchovní rozměr“. Tato pro ni zásadní hodnota sexuálního života se stává předmětem jejího širšího, kulturně společenského průzkumu, který v knize zaznamenává. Nebo přesněji – patří k jejím hlavním tématům. Stejně důležitá je totiž snaha Wolfové vyložit „vaginu“ čili ženskou sexualitu neurofyziologicky a psychofyziologicky. Autorka poutavě spojuje osobní pocity a postoje s vědeckými fakty; zkoumá možnosti ženského sexuálního prožívání optikou novodobé kulturní historie a feminismu. Při pátrání po „vědomí vaginy“ uvažuje o vlivu tradičního společenského uspořádání i ženské emancipace na spokojený sexuální život. Mnohým jistě překvapí – vagína se v tomto „životopise“ stává bytostí i bohyní; v jejím propojení s mozkem ožívá „duše ženy“, a pouze pokud je tato duše spokojená, je šťastná a spokojená i žena samotná.

Mýtus krásy
Ako sú obrazy krásy zneužívané proti ženám Je krása objektívnou kvalitou? Koho sa vlastne týka? Prečo sa týka predovšetkým žien? Aké sú jej kritériá? Aké súvislosti existujú medzi krásou a prácou, kultúrou, náboženstvom, sexom, hladom a násilím? To sú otázky, ktoré kladie kniha americkej feministickej autorky Naomi Wolf. Mýtus krásy sa stal bestsellerom doma i v zahraničí. Ukážka: Mýtus krásy nám navráva, že kvalita zvaná krása objektívne a univerzálne existuje. Ženy ju musia chcieť stelesňovať a muži musia chcieť vlastniť ženy, ktoré ju stelesňujú. Toto stelesňovanie je imperatívom pre ženy, a nie pre mužov. Je to stav nevyhnutný a prirodzený, pretože je daný biológiou, sexualitou a evolúciou: Silní muži bojujú o krásne ženy a krásne ženy sú úspešnejšie v reprodukcii. Krása žien musí korelovať s ich plodnosťou, a keďže tento systém je založený na sexuálnom výbere, je nevyhnutný a nemenný. Nič z toho nie je pravda.
