Promiscuities: The Secret Struggle for Womanhood Paperback - 1998
by Naomi Wolf
Brazenly exposing the truth behind the conflicting messages directed at young women during and after the sexual revolution, "Promiscuities" reveals how our "liberated" culture still fears and distorts female passion.
First line
Once upon a time, a scattered group of girls undertook the passage from girlhood to womanhood in a city built around a bay.
From the jacket flap
In this provocative and highly personal book, bestselling author Naomi Wolf explores a subject that has long been taboo in our society: women's sexual coming-of-age. Promiscuities brazenly exposes the truths behind the conflicting messages directed at young women during and after the sexual revolution. Drawing on surprising examples from the ancient and recent past, along with vivid recollections of her own youth, Wolf shows how our "liberated" culture still fears and distorts female passion. She also shares fascinating true stories that illustrate the fantasies and sometimes crippling realities women pass through on their way toward erotic and emotional discovery. A landmark book, Promiscuities is a call to women of all ages to reclaim and celebrate their sexuality.
