520 "Shirley Jackson Award-winning author and three-time
Lambda Finalist, Chavisa Woods presents one hundred
personal stories of sexism, harassment, discrimination,
and assault. Recounting her experiences with sexist
discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual violence--
beginning in childhood, through the present--Woods lays
out clear and unflinching personal vignettes that build in
intensity as the number of times grows. Individually, and
especially taken as a whole, these stories amount to
powerful proof that sexual violence and discrimination are
never just one-time occurrences, but part of a constant
battle all women face every day. In these extraordinary
pages, sexual violence and sexist discrimination occur
regardless of age, in all spheres of society, in rural and
urban areas alike, in the US and abroad, from Woods' youth
through adulthood. Demonstrating how often people are
conditioned to endure sexism and harassment, and how
thoroughly men feel entitled to women's spaces and bodies,
100 Times forces the reader to witness the myriad ways in
which sexism and misogyny continuously shape women's lives,
and are built-in facets of our society"--|cProvided by

520 "An undeniably powerful account of one hundred experiences
of sexism, harassment, discrimination and assault by
Shirley Jackson Award Winner, Chavisa Woods. Here are
Woods's personal stories of 100 times she suffered or was
witness to a sexually charged experience--from gender-
based discrimination in work places, to unsolicited
groping from strangers in public, to sexual assault--
beginning from the time she was five years old to the
present. Laid out in direct and unflinching vignettes,
building one after another, the stories are powerful proof
that sexual violence and discrimination are never just one
-time occurrences, but part of a constant battle women
face every day. In these extraordinary pages, sexual
violence and sexist discrimination happen to women
regardless of their age, in multiple spheres of society,
in rural, and urban areas alike, in the U.S. and abroad,
from the time they are very young or come out as women.
Demonstrating how often women (heterosexual, homosexual,
bisexual, queer, and transgender alike) are conditioned to
endure sexism and harassment, and how men are allowed to
feel entitled to women's spaces and bodies, 100 Times is
powerful in its blunt and straightforward recitation"--
