There have been days in the last ten or twelve years when I thought my collected works would consist entirely of fundraising letters, scribbled outlines of speeches, statements hammered out at the birth of some new coalition, and introductions to other people's books.
An edition of Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions

Steinem's most diverse and timeless collection of essays are found here, from the humorous expose "I Was a Playboy Bunny" to the moving tribute to her mother, "Ruth's Song." The satirical and hilarious "If Men Could Menstruate" is alone worth the price of admission.
