How dare she?! Sophie Passmann on the everyday insanity of being a woman (online)
with Sophie Passmann
Botox or “aging with dignity”? Post too many selfies or follow every new beauty trend on TikTok? Women online are permanently under observation. Every like can turn into a lawsuit, every comment can be politicized. This is the topic of the new book Wie kann sie nur? [“How dare she?!”].
Author Sophie Passmann is part of this contradictory world of women’s self-representation. Radically self-critical and razor-sharp, she analyzes the phenomena shaping a whole generation, from the ascetic discipline of Hailey Bieber to the calculated sass of Charli xcx and the neurotic perfection of Taylor Swift. Why are we so fascinated by women who present us with an image – and why do we judge them for it at the same time? With a clear perspective, delicate humor and ruthless honesty, Sophie Passmann dissects everyday life in the digital world and the pressure society applies to women in particular – smart, self-aware and highly entertaining.
