The breast-kept secret male authors never wanted you to know...
From the brilliantly funny (and rightfully furious) creator of the viral Men Write Women Twitter account
Let-s face it, women-s representation in literature really sucks. And that-s mostly because of the male authors who write female characters like they-re nothing more than playthings in their stories. Whether they have breasts like ripe peaches or curves like a racetrack, the literary ladies gracing the pages of bestselling books rarely serve a purpose beyond supporting a male character (or giving him something to fantasize about).
But what are you supposed to do about it if you can-t even get a foot (or, I guess, a boob) in the door?
You beat them at their own game.
In this hilarious yet incisive guide, you-ll learn how to write women just like a bestselling male author-stereotypes, tropes, objectification, and all-so you can start dismantling the system from the inside. With thoughtful literary analysis, interactive exercises, and commentary that perfectly straddles the line between satirical hilarity and righteous indignation, A Tale of Two Titties is both an illuminating study of women-s representation in literature and an absurd (yet accurate) guide to writing through the male gaze.
