Hating Girls provides an intersectional perspective that deconstructs the pervasive misogynies and gender-based violence against females and gender non-conforming people. The interdisciplinary analysis exposes the destructive, oppressive beliefs and practices inherent in our society and offers an equitable way forward.

Hating Girls is a collection of cutting-edge essays addressing the pervasive problem of misogyny from an intersectional framework, particularly focused on identities of gender, race, class, sexuality, and religion. Scholars, activist reformers, and social justice practitioners offer multiple perspectives of the misogyny that dominates our culture providing both macro-views as well as case studies in the United States. This interdisciplinary analysis exposes the destructive, oppressive beliefs and practices inherent in our society and offers a progressive, equitable way forward.
