My mother sent my son 'The Dangerous Book for Boys.' |
|
Son asks, "Is there one for girls?"
"Yes, it's 'The Daring Book for Girls.'"
"Is there one for mommies?"
"Yes. That one was written by Andrea Dworkin."

Thank you! Ellen.
Even without knowing either of the two books you mentioned, the "punch line" was clear. :D I've since googled and the context makes it even funnier.
LOL

6. I'm reading a book about christian spirtuality right now that |
|
references Andrea Dworking very positively, if not in any great detail.
It's The Cloister Walk. I periodically go on this tangent, reading about what people believe and how and why. This books is pretty good at trying to see a low-key feminist perspective in christian worship.
It's surprising, the places you can find Dworkin reference. :)
