Where the Girls Are: Growing Up Female with the Mass Media by Susan J. Douglas

4.0

Makes me wish I taken her classes while I was at Hampshire. I particularly enjoyed the way the explains the visceral importance of music to young women -- something I can absolutely relate to. She also points out how feminism is the civil rights movement most connected to anti-consumerism and how deeply cynical it is that corporations found a way to coopt the movement (you're worth it! enjoli, etc.) the book was published in the 90s -- I would love to read a follow up if there is one.
