女生的成長痛，是成為自己。「女生的成長痛，是成為自己。」她們的坦誠相見、揭穿與彼此療癒——ＭＺ世代女性主義者的戀愛、身體、欲望實錄☂專屬臺灣當代的、在地的女性主義者敘事☂集結作者與十位受訪者經驗的非虛構作品談擇偶，談伴侶，談仇女風氣與兄弟情誼，談為何在關係裡被傷與自傷、自棄，又如何自癒。談性與身體，落筆時的羞澀與羞恥，彰顯出書寫它是多麼必要，它又怎麼影響一名女性至深。書中指出大量認知與事實不協調的案例，直指「獨立女性」的硬傷，既想依賴又得保持自我，小至ＡＡ制、嫁娶儀式，男賺女賠邏輯更滲透進薪資差異下的職涯選擇、婚後的權力角色定位。在醫美顯學與身體焦慮的時代，夾縫在外貌物化與身體自主間，進化與調整自己如何不陷入凝視，也是當代女性宿命。若要在女性主義寫作傳統中，找到本書位置，它是安妮．艾諾（Annie Ernaux）書寫女性在私領域所遭受的困頓經驗。它也是莎拉．艾哈邁德（Sara Ahmed）的女性主義掃興者（feminist kill joy），分享女人在日常生活，反抗性別結構的行動小撇步。它更是羅珊．蓋伊（Roxane Gay）的不良女性主義者（bad feminist）──寫女性主義者面對性別不平等結構時，日復一日的妥協與協商。陷入框架、察覺框架、打破框架，似是女性主義者的行動三部曲，但現實與理想終究存在落差，那道不見天日的狹縫，期盼藉由本書窺知一二。
