Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape by Peggy Orenstein
informative
fast-paced
3.0
I think the point of the book was good and important and may have been more impactful for others who are maybe coming out of a more conservative mindset/lifestyle. For me, I skimmed a lot because it was just rehashing a lot of stories and statistics I am already aware of. I don't honestly feel like I learned anything I didn't already know or experience.
The author allows too much of her own bias in from chapter one. There is some transphobia in chapter 5 and xenophobia in chapter 6. Nothing "big" just a couple of comments that honestly could have been edited out and wouldn't have affected the book at all.
