Just Talking : A New Generation of Girls+ on Sex, Porn, Social Media, Opting Out and Finding Love

Award-winning author and journalist Peggy Orenstein explores how young women experience sex, gender and pleasure in the modern worldTen years after Peggy Orenstein''s seminal Girls & Sex was published, young people''s sexual experiences have been distorted by deepfakes, rewritten by extreme pornography and polarised by politics. In this brave new world, it may come as no surprise that for the young women of today sex and relationships are more fraught than ever.Reporting from the front lines of the sexual landscape, Peggy Orenstein draws on hundreds of interviews with young women to examine their generation''s reluctance to engage with men and the cynical, violent or simply boring encounters that result when they do. With her characteristic intimacy and urgency, Peggy''s thought-provoking research ultimately comes down to one thing: young women just want more.PRAISE FOR PEGGY ORENSTEIN:''If you''re going to talk about women in the 21st century, you MUST read Peggy Orenstein''s Girls & Sex'' Caitlin Moran''Girls & Sex should be mandatory for anyone who cares about the present and future cultural landscape for girls, women, humans'' Rashida Jones
