La inequidad de género es o fue una "ley natural" o parte inherente de la naturaleza humana? Siempre fue igual? Qué factores produjeron cambios? Cuál fue el efecto de la religión organizada? Qué es el feminismo? Es "de izquierda"? Para responder estas preguntas, recorreremos los eventos, las culturas que nos nutrieron y sus aspectos familiares, religiosos y sexuales, desde la prehistoria hasta nuestros días.

Veremos que en Occidente la mujer fue subyugada, en mayor o menor medida, desde los albores de la civilización. No fue hasta el siglo 20 que la mujer logró acceder a la educación universitaria, al trabajo profesional, al voto, al divorcio, a la patria potestad, a su propio control reproductivo y al repudio social a la violencia doméstica y a su explotación sexual. En pleno siglo 21, todavía le queda camino por recorrer, sobre todo en las esferas política y laboral. La Triste Historia de la Mujer en Occidente es un viaje introductorio a través de la historia de la mujer, desde su sometimiento hace milenios hasta su reciente liberación.

A lo largo de este impactante libro, visitaremos las culturas que nutrieron a la nuestra y los eventos bisagra de la historia y sus efectos sobre la condición de la mujer. Analizaremos matrimonio y familia, el factor religioso y la moralidad sexual en cada época. Espiaremos a la sexualidad a través de la mirilla del arte: cómo eran las mujeres representadas por artistas hombres y cómo se representaban a sí mismas. Conoceremos a mujeres notables, creativas, asertivas, combativas y a las pioneras del feminismo. Relataremos también la historia del feminismo, desde sus comienzos en el siglo 19, hasta hoy.
