Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award - "Enraging, enlightening, and invigorating, Backlash is, most of all, true."--Newsday

First published in 1991, Backlash made headlines and became a bestselling classic for its thoroughgoing debunking of a decadelong antifeminist backlash against women's advances. A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, Susan Faludi brilliantly deconstructed the reigning myths about the "costs" of women's independence--from the supposed "man shortage" to the "infertility epidemic" to "career burnout" to "toxic day care"--and traced their circulation from Reagan-era politics through the echo chambers of mass media, advertising, and popular culture.

As Faludi writes in a new preface for this edition, much has changed in the intervening years: The Internet has given voice to a new generation of feminists. Corporations list "gender equality" among their core values. In 2019, a record number of women entered Congress. Yet the glass ceiling is still unshattered, women are still punished for wanting to succeed, and reproductive rights are hanging by a thread. This startling and essential book helps explain why women's freedoms are still so demonized and threatened--and urges us to choose a different future.

NOT SLIM FIT.
Size: Large, Color: White
NOT A SLIM FIT. Misleading. White is off-white, cream. Not neutral, bright white. Decent material. Ok quality. Textured, thin but not too thin. Dressy, not very casual.

Great, snug on arms if you have bigger arms
Color: Red Navy Gingham, Size: Large
I had no issues with the fit as it was true to size. Large is snug on the arms if you have bigger arms.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Great Fit and Style for Casual Nights Out
Color: Navy Gingham, Size: Large
Use case: Casual wear, transitional weather 👕 Fit & Feel I’m really impressed with the cut of this shirt — it’s slim fit, but still relaxed and comfortable enough for casual settings. I prefer to wear it untucked, and it lays just right for a clean, stylish look. 🎨 Style & Material Color and pattern are on point, making it versatile for evenings out. The high cotton content feels soft, though I’ve avoided using a dryer to prevent shrinkage. Fabric is breathable and suitable for transitional weather — not too heavy, not too light. ✅ Final Thoughts Overall, this is a stylish and comfortable shirt that looks great and fits well for taller builds. I’d definitely order more in different patterns.

Nice color, lightweight, but runs small
Color: Blue Gingham, Size: Large
Nice cookie and can be work tucked or untucked. The material isn’t best quality but it’s about as expected for a shirt this price range. The size runs small so buy a size up from what you normally do. Expect some shrinkage is well. Otherwise it’s a nice shirt!
