Dua's Monthly Read for March 2026

“My Monthly Read for March is Bad Feminist by Roxane Gay. It’s an essay collection that feels like a conversation with your smartest, funniest, wisest friend who’s always prepared to work things out alongside you. In some places, it’s genuinely hilarious. Others, deeply compassionate. And occasionally, totally devastating.

“If you’re wondering how it’s possible to be a feminist to your core at the same time as loving lyrically problematic songs, reality TV and the occasional questionable romcom, congratulations, you are exactly the kind of 'bad feminist' Roxane Gay is talking about.

“And don’t be fooled by the title – Bad Feminist makes the clearest case for feminism I think I’ve ever come across. As she shows, what’s really ‘bad’ is the casual 'trickle-down misogyny' we deal with as women every single day. By moving effortlessly from pop culture to politics, taking in race, class, sexuality and body image, Roxane explores how our experiences as women are as distinct as they are unifying.

“I can’t wait to read this one with you all. Bring your hot takes, your contradictions, and your best – baddest – feminist rants.” – Dua Lipa
