AudioFile Magazine
REDUCTRESS is a satirical women's magazine that takes down the mainstream media's condescension and hypocrisy regarding women's place in the world. Narrated by one of its founders, this savvy broadside exposes our culture's subtle biases and makes fun of everyone who participates, knowingly or not. The two narrators sound similar and have similar sensibilities. Their enthusiastic, often exaggerated performances will sound adolescent to some ears, and perfect for the material to others. Overall, their lively performances, the book's sharp wit, and the serious advice suggested in the narratives make this audio both fun and enlightening. With the disrespect of women now prominent in the cultural conversation, this kind of well-crafted humor will be yet another channel through which all of us can become more aware and evolved.

The writers behind the hilarious satirical website The Reductress skewer the most ridiculous tropes and clichés of millennial-era feminism in this send-up of advice books targeted at women. An “official timeline of feminism” sets the tone, marking women’s suffrage and the birth of Beyoncé as equally relevant, along with chapter introductions revering feminist “patron saints” like Oprah and Lena Dunham. The writers provide shrewd commentary on the divisiveness of feminist culture in which women are pitted against and ordered to support one another at the same time. Hillary Clinton tops a list of “bad feminists” because “her Twitter is whack.” Instead of the no-makeup selfie, they recommend the “no-self selfie” because “it takes a strong woman to show others the room she’s in.” The text is accompanied by stock photos curated for maximum absurdity, funny fake advertisements, and graphs, including one on work-life balance that asks, “What’s the most you can achieve without fucking up your kids?” Readers who cringe at popular culture’s use of the words spirit animal, don’t think their outfits should be a measure of commitment to the cause, and are tired of hearing about “having it all” will enjoy the irreverence.
