"Most men prefer a self-deprecating woman." Generations of disapproval leave their mark and install mindsets that are hard to break. Project Boast offers 65 poems by 28 women poets who are speaking out about the straitjacket they've had to wear and celebrating the possibility of change. The result is a joyous encouragement and heartfelt rejoinder.
