The Equality Illusion by Kat Banyard
The Truth about Women and Men Today
This book argues that apparent gains in gender equality mask deep, systemic inequalities by examining how political, economic and cultural institutions perpetuate male dominance; it critiques market-friendly or celebrity-driven 'lean-in' feminism and corporate diversity initiatives as often cosmetic, explains how austerity, labor markets, unpaid care work, media representation and violence against women maintain unequal power, and uses evidence and case studies to call for structural change, collective political action and a redistribution of resources and power rather than individual solutions.
