Summary

To niesamowite, ale też takie zwyczajne, jak nasze ciała prowadzą nas przez życie。 - Emily Ratajkowski

Emily Ratajkowski, jedna z najsłynniejszych modelek i influencerek, długo sądziła, że skoro jej ciało należy do niej, decyzja, aby go użyć i na nim zarabiać, oznacza akt siły。 Dopóki wybór był jej, dopóty ona korzystała。

Z czasem jednak pojawiły się wątpliwości: a co, jeśli decyzja tylko pozornie należy do mnie?

Co, jeśli zasady ustalają mężczyźni, a kobieta jest wynagradzana wyłącznie za to, czy swoim ciałem wpisuje się w ich fantazje?

Co to znaczy być kobietą i towarem?

Ta świadomość okazała się brutalnym przebudzeniem, a jego owocem jest książka o roli ciał w uprzedmiatawiającej i szowinistycznej popkulturze i próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, jak kobiety mogą wyzwolić się od władzy męskiego punktu widzenia。

incredibleWow。 I’m surprised by how much I loved this book。 Beautifully written and a glimpse into a world so few of us really understand or will ever know。 Yet somehow, every woman can relate to Emily’s words and thoughts on what it means to live in this world in the body of a woman。

Un romanzo per tutte le eterne ragazzine che hanno vissuto la Britney del 2007, per tutte quelle che non si sono sentite mai abbastanza belle, mai abbastanza femministe, mai abbastanza alte, ricche, intraprendenti, simpatiche e donne。 Emily Ratajkowski è una piccola sorpresa che tiene compagnia nelle sere estive solitarie。 Grazie

I could read Emily Ratajkowskis’ shopping list and still be entertained! Honestly her writing is so good I hope she’ll continue writing and publishing!Other then her writing I thought that the story that she told, her story, was SO interesting and different。 I already know that I will now recommend this book to everyone I know!

Putting your dignity back on can be difficult after cavorting about in the altogether for all the world to see。 This book is such an attempt。 Perhaps it will work。

This book was real, raw and important。 It was emotional but putting voice to experiences, thoughts, questions and emotions that either I or a close friend have gone through in every essay。 Ratajkowski is a phenomenal writer, and has important statements to make in this book that is not only about her life but about the female experience in a male rewarding world。 She also doesn’t aim to answer questions, but rather grapple with navigating and finding your place within broken systems。 I hope ever This book was real, raw and important。 It was emotional but putting voice to experiences, thoughts, questions and emotions that either I or a close friend have gone through in every essay。 Ratajkowski is a phenomenal writer, and has important statements to make in this book that is not only about her life but about the female experience in a male rewarding world。 She also doesn’t aim to answer questions, but rather grapple with navigating and finding your place within broken systems。 I hope everyone reads this book。 。。。more

ya lo dije y lo vuelvo a repetir: es muy difícil empatizar con una persona cuando su único discurso es "siempre he sido muy guapa y delgada y tener este cuerpo me ha dado todo en esta vida ugh qué difícil es ser yo"。 ya lo dije y lo vuelvo a repetir: es muy difícil empatizar con una persona cuando su único discurso es "siempre he sido muy guapa y delgada y tener este cuerpo me ha dado todo en esta vida ugh qué difícil es ser yo"。 。。。more

Osobiście książka nie przypadła mi do gustu。 Po przeczytaniu nie czuje, że zdobyłam nową wiedzę, niczego się z niej nie nauczyłam。 Jeśli jesteś fanem autorki książka na pewno ci się spodoba。

Casey

A quick, intimate read。 Albeit triggering at times, it’s empowering in a way that makes you want to give both Emily and yourself big hugs。 Worth it!

Niestety to straszny bełkot。 Marnie napisane, narcystyczne, banalne。 Pisać każdy może, ale nie każdy powinien。 Jeżeli jest tu "feminizm" to tylko w najbardziej prymitywnej, instagramowej formie pop, którą uważam za toksyczną i jałową。 To w zasadzie taka woda po kisielu liberalnych wypocin。 Feminizm nie jest o wachlowaniu swojego ego, o tym, że jesteś tego warta。 Przynajmniej nie dla mnie。 To taki "feminizm" w stylu reklam luksusowych kosmetyków。 Niestety to straszny bełkot。 Marnie napisane, narcystyczne, banalne。 Pisać każdy może, ale nie każdy powinien。 Jeżeli jest tu "feminizm" to tylko w najbardziej prymitywnej, instagramowej formie pop, którą uważam za toksyczną i jałową。 To w zasadzie taka woda po kisielu liberalnych wypocin。 Feminizm nie jest o wachlowaniu swojego ego, o tym, że jesteś tego warta。 Przynajmniej nie dla mnie。 To taki "feminizm" w stylu reklam luksusowych kosmetyków。 。。。more

emrata is gorgeous and a really, really good writer。 “In my early twenties, it had never occurred to me that the women who gained their power from beauty were indebted to the men whose desire granted them that power in the first place。 Those men were the ones in control, not the women the world fawned over [。。。] How limited any woman's power is when she survives and even succeeds in the world as a thing to be looked at。” before reading this memoir keep one thing in mind: the title is the conte emrata is gorgeous and a really, really good writer。 “In my early twenties, it had never occurred to me that the women who gained their power from beauty were indebted to the men whose desire granted them that power in the first place。 Those men were the ones in control, not the women the world fawned over [。。。] How limited any woman's power is when she survives and even succeeds in the world as a thing to be looked at。” before reading this memoir keep one thing in mind: the title is the content of the book。 my body isn't an analyzes of sociological problems in a broad scale, it's emrata reflexing about her experience with commodifying her body and sexuality for profit and the effects and consequences of it。 she isn't apologizing for pretty privilage。 this book really resonated with me deeply。 the prose is vividly and full of imagery and profoundly immersive。 。。。more

Overall, I really enjoyed this book! Emily Ratajkowski is one of those people who I just can’t help but envy— she’s beautiful, successful, and as I know now, extremely intelligent。 As someone who may not have always fit into societies’ beauty standards, it was interesting to hear her perspective on the modeling/acting industry and the way her body has been treated as a commodity throughout her life, it really showed me that being hot and skinny (for lack of a better descriptor) may not be like w Overall, I really enjoyed this book!

Enjoyed her writing style, but she seemed to take a pretty privileged stance。 I was waiting for her to at least acknowledge that。 I understand and appreciate the points she’s making, but this is a kind of feminism that isn’t very intersectional or accessible。

Emma

I liked it, Pleasantly surprised。 Emily writes well and I could (sadly) concur with a lot of what she had to say about the male gaze, growing up as a female, and deeply rooted patriarchal notions of beauty, power and control。

I have been intrigued by Emily Ratajkowski since she first burst onto the scene after starring in the Blurred Lines music video。 Perhaps because we share our first name, but more likely because she is so jaw-droppingly beautiful it is unfathomable to the human brain。 A friend of mine recommended this book to me and from the pull quotes alone I was hooked。 I am not sure what I was expecting but I was certainly surprised by the depth and vulnerability from which Ratajkowski writes。 She shares her I have been intrigued by Emily Ratajkowski since she first burst onto the scene after starring in the Blurred Lines music video。 Perhaps because we share our first name, but more likely because she is so jaw-droppingly beautiful it is unfathomable to the human brain。 A friend of mine recommended this book to me and from the pull quotes alone I was hooked。 I am not sure what I was expecting but I was certainly surprised by the depth and vulnerability from which Ratajkowski writes。 She shares her sharp insights on femininity and it's conditional power within a society saturated by the male gaze。 I was especially moved by lines like, "In my early twenties, it had never occurred to me that the women who gained their power from beauty were indebted to the men whose desire granted them that power in the first place"。Ratajkowski's writing is the strongest when she is deconstructing her own assumptions and beliefs around the systems set up to reinforce institutions of power。 It is clear that control (or the illusion of it) is vital to Ratajkowski; which makes it all the more heartbreaking to unravel the fragility of her influence as an "object of desire"。 If one were to summarize this book in a dismissive fashion, it would be easy to write this book off as a narrative around "pretty people problems"。 And while certainly the message of, "there are no free lunches" is lobbied around, I think the contents of this book push farther than that。 From Ratajkowski's first hand experiences the reader can witness how dehumanizing it is to be desired for nothing but your body。 How it strips you of your autonomy and agency。On the whole, I think that this is a great feminist book。 That being said, I had some issues with it because it felt imbalanced。 This book has a lot to say about womanhood, but specifically white womanhood。 And to be fair, this is about Ratajkowski's first hand experiences, so it would have been presumptuous/weird for her to speak on behalf of BIPOC women。 But I suppose I am mentioning this because I think this book would have been stronger if Ratajkowski had acknowledged more of her privilege。 While her parent's didn't seem wealthy, it did seem like she had a comfortable lifestyle growing up in San Diego。 That, coupled with the fact that she is white seem like important facets to acknowledge in her commentary about women, power, and influence。Another thing that I wish this book addressed was the ways in which Ratajkowski is complicit in perpetuating the very systems she supposedly detests。 I think it would have spoken volumes if she acknowledged/grappled with the ways she fuels the capitalistic male gaze。 She explicitly writes something along the lines of, "I know the system is messed up, but it's not going anywhere。 So as long as it's still here then f*ck all of it's problematic parts and I'm just going to make money off it"。 While this is a valid viewpoint to take, I wish she had unpacked this more。 If she had, I think I would have been more sympathetic to the parts of the book that feel more tone deaf (i。e。 being paid to advertise the Maldives but being wildly unhappy during that vacation)。 In summary, I would recommend this book。 I also think it would make a great book club book because there's a lot of fodder here to sift through。 I think my main issues were that I wish she had included more parts to take accountability, but other than that the book was thought-provoking and a highly interesting read。 。。。more

I'm not entirely sure if I should even rate this book。 It's so personal and intimate that it feels almost wrong to comment on it。 But also, I want to remember how I felt about this book because it was such an experience to read。 I think that Emily Ratajkowski is definitely a writer。 I don't think she's another famous person who chose to write a memoir or a short story just because they knew an audience was already out there, waiting to listen to them。 I think she wrote because she really felt sh I'm not entirely sure if I should even rate this book。 It's so personal and intimate that it feels almost wrong to comment on it。 But also, I want to remember how I felt about this book because it was such an experience to read。 I think that Emily Ratajkowski is definitely a writer。 I don't think she's another famous person who chose to write a memoir or a short story just because they knew an audience was already out there, waiting to listen to them。 I think she wrote because she really felt she had to, and I love that。 Her essays are simply written but very impactful。 I was apprehensive at first about listening to a model comment on feminism and the beauty industry, but she handles her privileges and vulnerabilities respectfully and honestly。 Pretty much the only negative comment I have is that the last essay did not feel like a proper conclusion to me。 I wasn't expecting to turn the page and get hit with the acknowledgements and, unless the book is part of a continuing series, that surprise is never very pleasant for me。 I wish she had added another essay that could've wrapped things up。 Something that explains when she decided what she has to say is important enough to be published。 Or, you know, anything else that feels like an ending。 Anyway, besides that note, I would highly recommend this book。 It offers a perspective that is unique, but not so unrelatable that you feel mad at the author。 It's also an easy read, so you don't need to brush up on feminist theory before you start。 Overall, pretty damn good。 。。。more

4。5 Even if you’re not a model, actress, or ig influencer, I think every woman, in one way or another, can relate to something Emily Ratajkowski has written in her book。 Although the flow of ideas was not very clear at times, she is a great storyteller and a great writer, and I look forward to more of her work。

One day you read a book and your whole life changed。

i was not expecting for emrata to be such an amazing writer! that woman has been through a lot and this was an amazing book

Addie Pittman

I think this book is important for people who envy models and actresses。 I think this would be a great book for many young adults and teens However… I’m not a fan of her writing style and the book felt rambled in my opinion。

adele

I watched Black Swan with my mom last night (mistake- do not watch Black Swan with your mom!) and thought that reading this would be the logical next step。 I was correct。 I really want to write a review for this but I don’t think I can form a cohesive thought right now as I just got off of work, so a more comprehensive review will be coming!

4。5 ⭐️If Emily Ratajkowski has a million fans, I am one of them。 If Emily Ratajkowski has one fan, it is me。 If Emily Ratajkowski has zero fans, I am dead。

Stunning and absolutely amazing。 I had not known of Emily Ratajkowski before listening to this incredible collection of essays - I’m so glad I got to know her through the lens of her own voice。 Perhaps one of my all time favorite memoirs。

Claire Fairtlough

I have complicated feelings about this one。 There are a lot of good essays in here。 When she talks about the commodification of her body and how men treat her, i’m paying attention。 She writes about experiences that are very common for a lot of women, but then she starts to act as if she’s the only one who’s experienced this in the same way。 Emily talks a lot about wanting to be special, I think for a lot of her life she’s suffered from “i’m not like other girls” syndrome。 We’ve all gone through I have complicated feelings about this one。 There are a lot of good essays in here。 When she talks about the commodification of her body and how men treat her, i’m paying attention。 She writes about experiences that are very common for a lot of women, but then she starts to act as if she’s the only one who’s experienced this in the same way。 Emily talks a lot about wanting to be special, I think for a lot of her life she’s suffered from “i’m not like other girls” syndrome。 We’ve all gone through it。 But as the essays go on and on, I start to wonder, “When will this end?” Emily is so beautiful that its hard to always relate with her。 She lives a life that is completely different from my own。 I found it interesting to read about someone who loves to be naked, while also suffering from the same shame that society places on women who are deemed as sex symbols。 But there comes a time in reading this where you wonder, how much does Emily play a role in this? She very much paints herself to be a victim, and in so many ways she is。 She’s a victim of sexual assault。 She’s a victim of being pushed into the modeling industry at such a young age。 She’s a victim of feeling like she is only worth as much as her body。 She is a lot more, she has a mind and a soul just like everyone else。 Honestly, I hope she goes to therapy。 She seems like a chronic people pleaser, at the expense of herself。 She basically never stands up for herself, and it can kind of be irritating。 There are a lot of times she’s in front of powerful and intimidating men, and it’s super understandable。 But there are also a lot of times where she just seems to be complaining about stuff that she was more than happy to do in the moment。 There’s this element of a lack of self-awareness, while also thinking that she’s self-aware。 She never acknowledges her very obvious disordered eating, which I wanted to know more about。 Her body is definitely natural, but the amount of times she very briefly talks about losing 10 pounds in a week and skipping meals came off as tone deaf。 Especially when it was in the same essay of liking to be ‘in control of your body’。 I think she paints a picture that she has high self-esteem, she’s beautiful and knows it。 She likes being naked。 The problem is that people don’t see HER as anything but a body。 She’s so much more than that, it’s other peoples problem。 But it seems like she really has low self esteem, and consistently reduces herself to her looks that doesn’t feel as empowering as she claims it to be。 I also thought her anti-capitalist sentiments were annoying。 Yes, you were initially just doing this for money。 But now you have more than enough。 You’re a capitalist Emily。 It’s okay to admit that you are also the system。 Sometimes it feels like Emily doesn’t like other women that much。 She constantly is looking for male validation, and almost every woman in the book has some critique attached to her name。 This book shouldn’t be considered to be a book of activism。 It had a lot of potential to be, but it just isn’t。 I have a lot more to say about this book。 But I don’t have the characters。 Emily is smart。 She’s a great writer。 She’s of course, beautiful。 But I wish she gave us more。 I wish she gave some of her female audience more credit。 I hope that she continues to grow and learn how much more she is than her body。 Because right now, i’m not so sure。 。。。more
