She traces key moments in her life - from small-town tomboy in Canada, to international fashion model in the 90s, to bestselling author taking a polygraph test in 2002 to prove she writes her own work - and weaves her own experiences into a broader look at everyday sexism and issues surrounding the underrepresentation of women, modern motherhood and bodily autonomy, sexual violence, body image,\u00a0and the portrayal of women in politics, entertainment, advertising and the media. <\/span>\r\n\r\nDeeply personal and revealing, this is more than just Tara Moss's own story.
