READING: GOOD GIRL EXIT - On the End of Female Availability

Silvi Carlsson reads from her book "Good Girl Exit - Vom Ende weiblicher Verfügbarkeit" at Hugendubel bookshop in Rostock.

What if being nice is not a personality trait but a survival mechanism? In the book, Carlsson steps away from the role of the ever-obliging, understanding woman and asks what happens when we stop constantly making ourselves available for others. Writing in a radical, personal and political voice, she explores people-pleasing, emotional availability and female socialisation - and how deeply the good-girl complex shapes relationships, careers and bodies.
