Lunchbox / Soapbox: Kate Holden

Miss Misogyny

Why are women so mean to each other? Why the raking gaze in the change room, the disdainful glare on the train? Why the gleeful ‘celebrities without makeup’ magazine stories? Why is women's culture so often strung through with this insidious, unspoken sense of competition?

Kate Holden, ashamed of her own judgmental tendencies, will try to work out why, in a world where women have so much to share, we are sometimes anything but fair.
