Feminist book and memoir Bad Daughter by Sangeeta Pillai

YOU’RE A BAD DAUGHTER IF…

You’re sick and tired of being the Good Girl.

You’ve wasted years trying to be the Good Girl, Good Daughter, Good Sister, Good Partner, Good Neighbour, Good Colleague.

You’ve made yourself small, you’ve minimised yourself.

You’ve learnt that being the Good Girl stops you from being the Powerful Woman you are.

You no longer need to contort yourself into painful shapes to fit into what society expects women to be.

You no longer want to hide who you really are. You’re ready to unlearn a lifetime of conditioning.

You’re ready to figure out who you are, what you want.

You know that you’re the Bad Daughter: powerful, potent, undeniable, unafraid.
