On Frida Kahlo's moustache:a reading of Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair and its criticism; IndexThis is the first academic book ever written on women and body hair, which has been seen until now as too trivial, ridiculous or revolting to write about. Even feminist writers or researchers on the body have found remarkably little to say about body hair, usually ignoring it completely. It would appear that the only texts to elaborate on body hair are guides on how to remove it, medical texts on 'hirsutism', or fetishistic pornography on 'hairy' women. The last taboo also questions how and why any particular issue can become defined as 'self-evidently' too silly or too mad to write about.Body image in womenHairSocial aspectsElectronic books.Body image in women.HairSocial aspects.305.4306.4613Lesnik-Oberstein Karín852122MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465637303321The last taboo2257232UNINA00953nam 2200325 450 991047765300332120220720085743.0978885814317920210615d2021----u y0engy50 baitaITy 00 Quando l'Europa tradì se stessae come continua a tradirsi nonostante la pandemiaAlessandro SommaRoma; BariLaterza2021X, 184 p.22 cmAnticorpiPaesi dell'Unione europeaPolitica327.1722itaSomma,Alessandro263121ITUNINAREICATUNIMARCBK9910477653003321327.17 SOM 18358bfsXIV A 175710 cosDDCICCOLLEZ. 2188 (72)1416/2022FSPBCFSPBCDDCICbfsQuando l'Europa tradì se stessa1806698UNINA
