VERLAGSTEXT: / / Presents an analysis of the new sexual landscape faced by girls in today's high schools and colleges, revealing hidden truths, hard lessons, and important possibilities in girls' modern-world sex lives. / / The New York Times best-selling author of Cinderella Ate My Daughter presents an analysis of the new sexual landscape faced by girls in today's high schools and colleges, revealing hidden truths, hard lessons and important possibilities in girls' modern-world sex lives. 50,000 first printing. / / 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 stageâ€"high school through collegeâ€"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’ sex lives in the modern world. / While the media has focusedâ€"often to sensational effectâ€"on the rise of casual sex and the prevalence of rape on campus, in Girls and 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; 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 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 todayâ€"giving readers comprehensive and in-depth information with which to understand, and navigate, this complicated new world. / / / AUS DEM INHALT: / / Introduction Everything You Never Wanted to Know About Girls and Sex (but Really Need to Ask) 1 (6) / Chapter 1 Matilda Oh Is Not an Object---Except When She Wants to Be / 7 (38) / Chapter 2 Are We Having Fun Yet? / 45 (30) / Chapter 3 Like a Virgin, Whatever That Is / 75 (28) / Chapter 4 Hookups and Hang-Ups / 103 (38) / Chapter 5 Out: Online and IRL / 141 (26) / Chapter 6 Blurred Lines, Take Two / 167 (38) / Chapter 7 What If We Told Them the Truth? / 205 (32) / Acknowledgments 237 (2) / Notes 239 (32) / Selected Bibliography 271 (20) / Index 291 / / /
