Book Overview

An ancient title of respect for women, the word "cunt" long ago veered off this noble path. Inga Muscio traces the road from honor to expletive, giving women the motivation and tools to claim "cunt" as a positive and powerful force in their lives. In this fully revised edition, she explores, with candidness and humor, such traditional feminist issues as birth control, sexuality, jealousy between women, and prostitution with a fresh attitude for a new generation of women. Sending out a call for every woman to be the Cuntlovin' Ruler of Her Sexual Universe, Muscio stands convention on its head by embracing all things cunt-related. This edition is fully revised with updated resources, a new foreword from sexual pioneer Betty Dodson, and a new afterword by the author. "Bright, sharp, empowering, long-lasting, useful, sexy . . . " -- San Francisco Chronicle " . . . Cunt provides fertile ground for psychological growth." -- San Francisco Bay Guardian "Cunt does for feminism what smoothies did for high-fiber diets -- it reinvents the oft-indigestible into something sweet and delicious." -- Bust Magazine

Enpowering and wonderful

This is the most empowering book i've ever read. As a feminist, lesbian, and avid reader/student of women's studies, i have to say that this is the best book i've read all year. Inga Muscio talks about female anatomy, rape, abortion, orgasms, menstruation, and prostitution. While i didn't agree with EVERY point she made, i was shown an itelligent point of view that made me think of things i had never thought of before...

Prepare to have your worldview disrupted

This book has had an immeasurable impact on how I view myslef, my body, and my relationship with other women. It's rather empowering to have somebody (FINALLY) say all of the things that you've been thinking but never thought you had an audience for. As a rape survivor, I found one passage to be especially true:A man could, feasibly, sacrifice his lunch break raping a woman. That woman would then spend the rest of their...

read it, go out and buy lots of copies for your friends

while i do agree with the other los angeles reviewer who noted that the book is a little too centered around a simplistic dichotomy of dick=opressive power/cunt=beauty and all things positive, there is much in this book that is worth reading, worth mulling over, worth embracing. and, in a sense, thank god(dess) there are a few areas i couldn't wholeheartedly agree with (ie- why not lump all male artists into the category...

Cunt rules and if you don't think so, you don't get it.

When you read a book that changes something fundamental inside you, and you can't stop thinking about it for days, and you find yourself referring to it constantly, and you carry it with you in your backpack and relay specific quotes into your journal for safekeeping--then you know you've tapped into a literary archive of incredible genuius. Cunt: A Declaration of Independence, is such a nugget. Ms. Muscio interviews...
