drtearex 's review for:
Girls & Sex: Navigating the Complicated New Landscape
by Peggy Orenstein
This is a very important book. I don't have children, but I think not only is this important for parents no matter the gender of their child, for school administrators, teachers, policy-makers, etc. It also made me reflect on my experiences in high school and university and how I found it difficult to say no and would often just go with the flow because it was the path of least resistance. I am a much more assertive person now in my 30s and I wish I could go back to my younger self and instill more of that into her.
To anyone who reads this book, the first parts will be, at times, discomfiting to the point of being horrific. But it ends on an optimistic note, I promise!
