Riassunto

'If you're going to talk about women in the 21st century, you MUST read Peggy Orenstein's Girls & Sex.' - CAITLIN MORAN, author of How to Be a Woman *TIME Top 10 non-fiction books of 2016* *Amazon Best Non-fiction of 2016* A generation gap has emerged between parents and their daughters. Mothers and fathers have little idea about the pressures and expectations they face or how they feel about them. Drawing on in-depth interviews with young women and a wide range of psychologists and experts, renowned journalist and bestselling author Peggy Orenstein goes where most others fear to tread, pulling back the curtain on the hidden truths and hard lessons of girls' sex lives in the modern world.
