She Bulls
In a world still arguing over who should lead, provide, and nurture, She Bulls by Shirley Staggs offers a quiet but unflinching look at how gender roles have shifted, and what those changes cost families, workplaces, and identities. Through the story of the Carter family, Staggs traces the evolution from the 1960s household model to the modern era, where women often carry economic leadership, and men redefine purpose beyond the paycheck. Denise Carter rises as a capable, driven professional navigating success, scrutiny, and workplace harassment, while her husband Mark anchors the home, challenging long-held assumptions about masculinity, provision, and respect. Rather than casting blame, She Bulls examines why women grew harder, why men grew uncertain, and how both were shaped by history, war, necessity, and survival. The book explores the tension between strength and tenderness, authority and care, and asks whether balance is possible without returning to the past. Honest, reflective, and grounded in everyday life, She Bulls is not a manifesto; it is a mirror. It speaks to readers who feel the strain of modern expectations and are searching for a way forward that honors both responsibility and humanity. This is a story about work and home, power and partnership, and the quiet revolutions that begin not in movements, but at the kitchen table.
