Empowerment, liberation, choice. Once the watchwords of feminism, these terms have been co-opted by a society that sells women an airbrushed, sexualised and narrow vision of femininity. While opportunities may have expanded, the ambitions of many young girls are limited by a culture that asks them to see consumerism and self-decoration as their only proper occupation. Natasha Walter, writer of the groundbreaking The New Feminism and Kat Banyard author of The Equality Illusion – a call to action for women everywhere – discuss the major issues for twenty-first century feminism, from work and education to sex, relationships and having children. In conversation with writer Sarah LeFanu. Essential.
