Recs if you like Men Explain Things to Me...

Aka Dua Lipa’s reading list. Everyone’s fave popstar on permanent holiday with a massive list of books to read, and she always seems to have incredible recommendations.

I am not part of Service95 or affiliated with Dua Lipa. I am just a fan curating this list based on the @service95bookclub IG account 💋

Different kinds of non-fiction books about gender, feminism, and related topics. People like black women or neurodivergent women are twice or more marginalised, and often it's not clear whether treatment was due to (for example) skin colour or perceived gender, so I'll add some books about other kinds of marginalisation as well. I haven't read all books (yet); if one is problematic, please tell me so in a comment!

Feminine rage, female empowerment, emotional validation. Women supporting women. Men being men. Feminism. Feminist reads.

Non-fiction titles all about love, romance, friendship, connection and relationships

A collection of non fiction books from women in science or any other field of knowledge! I'm so tired of having to listen to men that I am making it my mission to read as many non-fiction books from women I can.

Books that might help people of all genders (including men) to think critically about the patriarchy, incel/manosphere ideologies and sexism. Unpicking internalised sexism is important, and books might be a useful tool to help ourselves and others. Intersections with issues of age, race, class etc.are likely!

Celebrating women’s history month and feminism

Books about feminism, the manosphere, incels and anything else that will make you angry

Non-fiction books of all different types that I'm hoping to read to get inspired and learn new things.
