This book covers everything from the history of slut shaming, to how it impacts minority groups (Black women, queer people), how we can reflect on our own tendencies to slut shame and how to advocate for ourselves when being slut shamed in medical settings. This is a really easy to follow and informative book that I consider essential reading for anyone looking into sociopolitical books.
