Rebecca Reid's journalistic truth-telling and infamous debates with Piers Morgan are the stuff of legend. Her book, The Power of Rude, is a WAM must-read.

When journalist Rebecca Reid sushed a man who was speaking over her on Good Morning Britain the tabloids labelled her as ‘Rude Rebecca’. Tarred with this label, she got to wondering if the fear of being rude is actually holding women back?

In her brilliant book, The Power of Rude, Rebecca discusses the way women are constantly worrying about being polite. And how the fear of being rude leads us to uncomfortable and even self-destructive situations. For example, the woman who let her cousin practice kissing on her (because she didn't want to be rude!) and the vegan woman who ate an entire pork chop (because she didn't want to be rude!).

Join us as we discuss how this inability to be ‘rude’ results in pent up anger. And we explore how refreshing and releasing it can be to say what you actually think.
