I read this book many years ago. The only reason it gets 4 stars out of 5 is for the utilitarianism which can be a huge deal breaker for me. I think Singer made animal liberation accessible to a lot of people with this book.

Every time I try to rate this book I end up giving it another star. I don't think it matters whether or not Solanas was serious. This book turns misogyny on it's head and spits it back at the world in the form of the opposite. It is half spot on and half completely fucked up, but in the end, in holds up a mirror to misogynistic culture and says, "what if things were the other way around?"

Also, it's really good catharsis for people who are really feelin' the effects of the patriarchy that day and need someone who's more pissed off than they are to read.
