Penny argues that we are living in a culture of "politeness" that is actually a form of oppression. Women are taught to be polite, to be nice, to not make waves. But this politeness is a trap. It prevents women from speaking out against injustice, from demanding what they deserve, and from living their lives to the fullest.

Penny draws on her own experiences as a woman and a feminist to illustrate the ways in which politeness can hold women back. She writes about the time she was told to "smile more" at work, the time she was harassed on the street, and the time she was slut-shamed online. These are just a few examples of the many ways in which women are silenced and controlled.

But Penny also offers a message of hope. She argues that we can break free from the culture of politeness and create a world where women are truly equal. She calls on women to be bold, to be brave, and to never give up fighting for what they believe in.

Don't Be Too Polite, Girls is a must-read for anyone who cares about feminism, equality, and social justice. It is a powerful and inspiring call to action that will leave you feeling empowered and ready to make a difference.
