But up to now their activities have been largely overlooked. In Pink-pilled\, journalist Lois Shearing interviews leading experts and infiltrates communities of tradwives and femtrolls to provide a cutting-edge account of how the far right uses the internet to recruit women. Shining a light on women’s experiences within these movements\, Shearing reveals horrifying examples of misogyny and violence. \n\n\n\nUnderstanding how and why women join movements that explicitly aim to restrict their autonomy is essential if we want to fight back. Pink-pilled offers key insights for countering women’s radicalisation and building communities resistant to far-right thought. \n\n\n\nLois Shearing is a freelance journalist and author. They are the author of Bi the Way: The Bisexual Guide to Life (2021) and the co-editor of It Ain’t Over Til the Bisexual Speaks: An Anthology of Bisexual Voices (2024). Their writing on sex\, sexuality\, gender\, relationships\, digital culture\, and politics has appeared in Cosmopolitan\, The Independent\, Mashable\, The Metro\, and Gay Times\, among others. \n\n\n\nWe are delighted to welcome back to Housmans the brilliant Maya Oppenheim\, former Women’s Correspondent for The Independent and author of The Pocket Guide to the Patriarchy\, to join Lake in conversation. The two will talk about roughly 45 minutes\, followed by a Q&A. \n\n\n\nAs always\, tickets are priced on a sliding scale. If you are unable to pay for a ticket please do not hesitate to contact us at shop@housmans.com\, and a free ticket will be made available. \n\n\n\nIf you choose ‘book + event entry’ or ‘special bundle’\, your copies of the book will be available to collect on the evening. If you would like to collect it earlier\, or arrange for delivery\, please contact us (postage is £2.95). Telephone 020 7837 4473 or email shop@housmans.com. \n\n\n\nDoors Open at 6:45pm\, Event Starts 7:00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShare this:\n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on Insta (Opens in new window)\n Insta\n Like this:Like Loading...
