Summary: Emer O'Toole once caused a media sensation growing her body hair and singing 'Get Your Pits Out For The Lads' on national TV. You might think she's crazy - but she has lessons for us all. Emer takes us on a hilarious, honest and probing journey through her life - from cross-dressing and head shaving, to pube growing and full body waxing - exploring the performance of femininity to which we are confined. Funny, provocative and underpinned with rigorous academic intelligence, this book shows us why and how we should all begin to gently break out of gender stereotypes.
