Meet the Female Chauvinist Pig -- the new brand of "empowered woman" who embraces "raunch culture" wherever she finds it. In her groundbreaking book, <I>New York</i> magazine writer Ariel Levy argues that, if male chauvinist pigs of years past thought of women as pieces of meat, <I>Female Chauvinist Pigs</i> of today are doing them one better, making sex objects of other women -- and of themselves. Irresistibly witty and wickedly intelligent, <I>Female Chauvinist Pigs</i> makes the case that the rise of raunch does not represent how far women have come; it only proves how far they have left to go.
