Synopsis

Tired of inauthentic prattle, CEO and president of Concerned Women for America Penny Young Nance is ready to change the way women today engage the culture. In her debut title, Feisty & Feminine, she takes an honest and transparent look at what it means to be a conservative Christian woman with thoughtful commentary on the real issues confronting American women.“Conservative women have never fit neatly into stereotypes, especially conservative Christian women,” says Penny Young Nance. “We’re not the humorless, dim-witted ‘church ladies’ Saturday Night Live has made us out to be. Today’s conservative women are intelligent, well-educated, compassionate, accomplished, funny, and fearless—and it’s time for us to stand up and be heard. In fact, we have an opportunity like never before to offer words of redemption to a world gone mad.”From Miley Cyrus to campus feminists, it’s clear that women are still searching for their voice in culture today. With Hillary Clinton running for president in 2016, there is even more of a need for a compelling, conservative, and credible female influence in the mix. Penny Nance is that woman. She is direct without being disrespectful, winsome but not shallow, and relevant while still holding to faith and conservative values.Accepting the baton of leadership from their foremothers, today’s conservatives have emerged as intelligent, hard-working women of faith who not only deal with issues like life and marriage, but are also advocates for the free market, for rights of conscience, and for female victims of radical Islam. Passionate about their role in society, they refuse to turn a blind eye to the sexual exploitation of women or the hypocrisy surrounding women’s issues. The time is right for this book—and for conservative women everywhere to be part of the conversation.

Goodreads review by Reza on September 17, 2017

In my opinion, no one can criticize feminists and feminism better than women themselves, and this book is one of the criticisms. As the author is one of the leading figures of Concerned Women of America (CWA), one of the conservative political policy groups, her message are unavoidably laden with re......more

Goodreads review by Emily on August 12, 2024

As a member of my local Concerned Women for America chapter, I was assigned to read this book along with the rest of the group. The book is pretty much what it says on the tin: Penny Nance, the CEO of CWA, presents her readers with information on various issues that she considers important for conse......more

Goodreads review by Mikayla on August 16, 2019

First of all, I should say that I ended up liking this book more than I wanted to. Second, this book is written for a very specific audience: Christian women who identify as politically conservative. And if you don't identify as a politically conservative Christian woman, you're not going to like or......more

Endorsed by Jim Daly, Beverly LaHaye, Mike Huckabee, Ben Carson, and other well-known conservative leaders, I was compelled to read Penny Young Nance's Feisty and Feminine in order to understand more deeply many of the current political issues affecting conservative, Christian women. I identify that......more
