"From the empowerment and appreciation of women and femininity of all kinds, to living openly as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, to healing and moving on from trauma, I have attempted to include as many aspects of my own life as possible that, despite being the experience of myself and so many others, is still considered a taboo or "too political" of a conversation." - Jennifer Belle Baird.Being a Woman and Other Taboos is the debut poetry collection from Scottish writer and poet Jennifer Belle Baird. It contains poems that discuss both women's issues and life as a member of the lgbtqia+ community. These topics are touched on throughout the book using a variety of tones and poetic techniques to keep each and every piece feeling new and exciting. The collection is both a celebration of femininity and an expression of the poet's anger and frustration at the treatment of women and lgbtqia+ people in today's society. It is an emotional and evocative read which every woman, lgbtqia+ member, and person healing from trauma can benefit greatly from. Being a Woman and Other Taboos is a short and delicate collection of poems with a heartfelt and powerful message.
