(Part 2) Top products from r/menwritingwomen

So, this is exactly the opposite of what you might think it is. From one of Amazon's reviews:

>This book is unforgettable, although a little embarrassing if you are male. Spender is the best, simply the best, at accumulating wonderful insights and evidence about the silly attempts to discredit women authors, as women, regardless of their intelligence, insight and skill with language. Many male critics read writing by women who had written with male pen names, proclaimed the writing excellent, and then, ahem, cough, cough, "revised" their opinion way downward when the actual sex of the author became known. There is a lot more in the book beyond the history of women writers and the obstacles they faced. Much is about Spender's personal experience and research she conducted on "mansplaining", where men who know little kindly "splain" to a women expert all about the subject of her expertise.

One of the best series I've read where women are the same as men is the Steerswoman Saga by Rosemary Kirstein. It's a recognizable world, but one in which misogyny seems to just not exist, and is incredibly refreshing to read. (Also: people solving their problems by using intelligence, creativity, and diplomacy instead of with force!)

In more of a science-fiction vein, Hellspark by Janet Kagan has a similar humanist feel to it. The novel thinks a lot about how culture affects communication, and how our language shapes our roles.

Nicola Griffith's Ammonite is sci-fi but takes place on a low-tech world populated only by women. It's kind of cool how quickly this comes to seem normal. Griffith's books are all amazing, but some of her others do deal with sexual violence (though never minimized as scene-setters).

Uhm... don't want to crash the party but does this fit here?

I mean the author is a woman and the blurb actually states, that she wants to take the historical analysis of female prostitution out of the hands of male historians and actually take the side of the prostitutes. Seems to me like she just uses 'whore' instead of 'sex worker' or something else in general.

Please do at least some basic research on an image like that.

I definitely recommend Circe. It's a novel about the witch from Greek mythology. The author does a great job of descriptions and making mythical places feel very real and concrete and creates characters that (though gods) feel very human.

Agreed. Note that this is not an issue with the short story version...and that Paper Menagerie is just generally outstanding.

That actually sounds a bit like a story written by Nalini singh, I‘ve read a few years ago. The title is snow something, I think. Is she promoting this or is someone just copying her? She actually writes kinda nice, but very predictable, stories if you don‘t expect too much.

Edit: Found it: https://www.amazon.de/Kiss-Snow-Psy-Changeling-Band-10/dp/042524489X/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=kiss+of+snow&qid=1563016433&s=gateway&sr=8-1
It Sounds similar because of the main characters name and her hooking up with the alpha.

If anyone is interested, here’s a link to the amazon prime. The reviews were actually mostly good, which is disheartening

It's a woman who's upper half of her face is hidden by a hat. She's wearing bright red lipstick. Her shoulders are bare and before her chest she's holding a red rose.

Yup
