Sorry not sorry. Über weibliche Scham

In the organizer's words:

"Ever since I was a child, I've had the feeling that I'm not good enough. The fact that women are systematically kept down and taken less seriously than men has reinforced this feeling. While I spent years apologizing for almost everything I did or (didn't) say, I also felt the need to take up more space - and to escape socially accepted mechanisms of oppression."

Feeling shame is completely normal, regardless of gender. But women are particularly often ashamed and apologetic: for their own bodies, because they are considered too successful, are single or remain childless. Anika Landsteiner has noticed this phenomenon in herself and explores the question of why this is the case. In clever, personal texts about all aspects of her life - from work, illness and sexuality to coming to terms with her biography - she reflects on self-worth, crossing boundaries and the fact that she no longer allows herself to be belittled, either by herself or by others.

Anika Landsteiner was born in 1987 and works as an author and journalist. Her focus is on social injustice, taboo topics, feminism and pop culture. In the podcast "Hello, lovers!" she talks to couples therapist Dr. Sharon Brehm about how equal love can work. She is the author of three novels. "As you know me" was about coping with grief and domestic violence, and the novel was on the Spiegel bestseller list for several weeks. Her latest book "Nachts erzähle ich dir alles" is about female self-determination.
