In this graphic nonfiction book, drawn in chunky, punky pen, Swedish cartoonist Liv Strömquist traces how different cultures and traditions have shaped women's health and beyond. Her biting, informed commentary and ponytailed avatar guides the reader from the darkest chapters of history (a clitoridectomy performed on a five-year-old American child as late as 1948) to the lightest (vulvas used as architectural details as a symbol of protection). Like humorists Julie Doucet (Dirty Plotte), Alison Bechdel (Dykes to Watch Out For), and Kate Beaton (Hark! A Vagrant), she uses the comics medium to reveal uncomfortable truths about how far we haven't come. 521 8 Rated EX 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Feminism|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Human anatomy|xWomen|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Sex|xHistory|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Orgasm|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Menstruation|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Patriarchy|xHistory|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Graphic novels. 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcgft 655 7 Comic books, strips, etc.|2gsafd 700 1 Bowers, Melissa,|etranslator. 730 0 hoopla (Digital media service) 914 MWT12320056
