The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls

Published by USC Bedrosian Center on




In today’s episode we’re thinking about the patriarchy, and Mona Eltahawy’s tools for women and girls. Tools to take down the premise by which prevents so many women from living full human lives. The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls is a memoir, a manifesto, and a toolkit for women to retrain themselves to take up space in the world. To live fully, and without guilt for that humanness. 

Listen as Professor Nicole Esparza, Marisa Turesky, and Aubrey Hicks delve into the book.
