DETAILS: very good dust-jacket BUT darkened and faded by light along spine and edges of front panel, cover price $14.95, attractive copy, near fine red half-cloth with cream white boards, paper is slightly darkened from age. BROWNMILLER, SUSAN. Femininity. New York: Linden Press/Simon & Schuster, 1984, 1st printing number line ending with 1, 270pp., . Dust-jacket design by Anne Winslow. Brownmiller addresses the set of societal strictures, esthetic ideals, and assigned "characteristics" which governs the lives of half of America, and which goes by the name of Femininity. Biological femaleness, writes Brownmiller, is the smallest part of the elusive quality we know as femininity, which "always demands more. It must constantly reassure its audience by a willing demonstration of difference, even when one does not exist in nature." Body and gesture, skin and hair, conversation and clothing; the way a woman speaks, the way she sits, the way she smells: all are ruled by a code that requires enhancement, containment, exaggeration, or even denial of woman's nature. Whether an individual woman finds in femininity the luxuriant pursuit of a positive identity or an implacable standard she can never hope to meet, femininity remains, at bottom, "a powerful esthetic based upon a recognition of powerlessness." - CONTENTS: Body -- Hair -- Clothes -- Voice -- Skin -- Movement -- Emotion -- Ambition. 9780671246921 ISBN 0671246925. …
