History of Bad & Bonkers Advice to Women

Delve into the outrageous journey through centuries of misguided and harmful advice given to women in "You're Doing it Wrong," as told by the one and only Kaz Cooke. With a mix of humor, anger, intelligence, and wit, Kaz takes you on a hilarious trip from 14th-century clergy to modern-day influencers like the Kardashians. From wearing arsenic-laced dresses to engaging in risky behavior, the book exposes the absurdity of societal expectations placed on women.

Beyond just poking fun at silly advice, "You're Doing it Wrong" is a powerful critique of injustice, a call to arms for sisterhood, and a guide to breaking free from unattainable standards of perfection. Drawing from her 30 years of experience in advice-giving, including columns and best-selling books, Kaz presents a colorful and lively book filled with historical photos and instructions that will make you laugh and think.

Through examining societal expectations like changing our bodies, keeping quiet, and being responsible for all household chores, as well as the restrictions on expressing emotions, having practical clothing, and holding positions of power, "You're Doing It Wrong" sheds light on the toxic messages imposed on women throughout history. It's a refreshing take on the absurdity of gender norms and a reminder that it's okay to break free from the mold society tries to force us into.
