Paperback. Condition: Very Good. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A Time Top 10 Book of the Year * A San Francisco Chronicle Book of the Year The author of the New York Times bestseller Cinderella Ate My Daughter offers a clear-eyed picture of the new sexual landscape girls face in the post-princess stage--high school through college--and reveals how they are negotiating it. A generation gap has emerged between parents and their girls. Even in this age of helicopter parenting, the mothers and fathers of tomorrow's women have little idea what their daughters are up to sexually or how they feel about it. Drawing on in-depth interviews with over seventy young women and a wide range of psychologists, academics, and experts, renowned journalist Peggy Orenstein goes where most others fear to tread, pulling back the curtain on the hidden truths, hard lessons, and important possibilities of girls' sexual behavior and sex lives in the modern world. While the media has focused--often to sensational effect--on the rise of casual sex and the prevalence of rape on campus, in this important work of women's studies, Girls & Sex, Peggy Orenstein brings much more to the table. She examines the ways in which porn and all its sexual myths have seeped into young people's lives as part of today's popular culture; what it means to be the "the perfect slut" and why many girls scorn virginity; the complicated terrain of hookup culture and the unfortunate realities surrounding sexual assault. In Orenstein's hands these issues are never reduced to simplistic "truths;" rather, her powerful reporting opens up a dialogue on a potent, often silent, subtext of American life today--giving readers comprehensive and in-depth information with which to understand, and navigate, this complicated new world. This essential book for parents, educators, and young adults tackles the urgent questions of modern girlhood: A Widening Generation Gap: Based on in-depth interviews, this book reveals what mothers and fathers don't know about their daughters' lives and provides the tools to start a conversation. The New Hookup Culture: Go beyond the headlines to understand what casual sex, from high school through college, actually means for girls and how they feel about it. Body Image and Social Media: Explore the complex intersection of self-objectification, hypersexualized pop culture, and the pressure to perform online. Sexual Consent and Female Pleasure: A frank discussion of the hidden truths surrounding assault, coercion, and why girls' own pleasure is often left out of the equation.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. From the author of Maine Characters and Playing with Matches, a sweeping love story in the vein of Rebecca Serle and Chloe Benjamin about a woman who knows the date she'll meet her true love--only he isn't quite as perfect as she always imagined. What if you knew exactly when you'd meet the love of your life? Edie Meyer knows. When her Grandma Gloria was a young woman, she had a vision of the exact day she would meet her soul mate--and then Grandpa Ray showed up. Since then, Gloria has accurately predicted the day every single member of the family has met their match. Edie's day arrives on June 24, 2022, when she's twenty-nine years old. She has been waiting for it half her life. That morning, she boards an airplane to her twin sister's surprise engagement, and when a handsome musician sits beside her, she knows it's meant to be. But fate comes with more complications than Edie expected and she can't fight the nagging suspicion that her perfect guy doesn't have perfect timing. After a tragedy and a shocking revelation rock Edie's carefully constructed world, she's forced to consider whether love chooses us, as simple as destiny, or if we choose it ourselves.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Peggy Orenstein's bestselling Schoolgirls is the classic study of teenage girls and self-esteem. Now Orenstein uses the same interviewing and reporting skills to examine the lives of women in their 20s, 30s and 40s. The advances of the women's movement allow women to grow up with a sense of expanded possibilities. Yet traditional expectations have hardly changed. To discover how they are navigating this double burden personally and professionally, Orenstein interviewed hundreds of women and has blended their voices into a compelling narrative that gets deep inside their lives and choices. With unusual sensitivity, Orenstein offers insight and inspiration for every woman who is making important decisions of her own.…
