About This Item
NY: Farrar Straus & Giroux. Fine in Fine dust jacket. 1990. Hard Cover. 0374148732 . Despite the supposed new freedoms of the sexual revolution, many women still feel they are "giving in" by having sex with a prospective boyfriend, according to Rubin. In our culture, she claims, gender-based power struggles and inequality continue to mark the meeting between the sexes, with women still expected to play the role of compliant caregivers, and men equating sexual conquest with masculine identity. Rubin ( Intimate Strangers ) interviewed 375 adults and teenagers for this revealing, sensitive probe, supplementing that data with 600 additional questionnaire responses. Among her findings: "Neither men nor women are terribly satisfied with the other in bed"; adolescents are highly tolerant of all types of sexual behavior; pornography has increasingly found its way into the lives of the "respectable"; despite lip service paid to fear of AIDS, teens aren't using condoms. A fine book in a fine dust Jacket 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Hard Cover. .

About biblioboy
We are biblioboybiblioboy dealers in Books, Stamps, Ephemera, Victorian Trade cards, Magazines, Postcards, Sheet Music, Engravings, and much more. I started out as a book collector and soon progressed to owning a book store with over 80,000 books and more than 10,000 pieces of ephemera, postcards, and other items. I exhibited my stock for years at book and paper shows around the eastern United States. As the book and paper business has changed over the years, I have changed the way I do business to evolve with the times. I now offer my items for sale on the web only, through my various listing services and web sites. Being a a collector, as well as a dealer, I understand the importance of condition, as well as rarity of an item, and the desire to own scarce and one of a kind items.
