Wanting More
Autor Peggy Orensteinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 mar 2027
How does a new generation define sexuality? Gender? Pleasure? Ten years ago, journalist Peggy Orenstein explored those questions in her landmark New York Times bestseller, Girls & Sex, engaging young women in honest, compelling conversations about their private lives. But times have changed: young men and women are more polarized than ever; porn and social media have rewritten sexual scripts; rough sex—especially “choking” of female partners by men—is as common as oral sex; girls have grown cynical and despairing over their schools’ response to sexual assault; some are embracing celibacy. Meanwhile, queer identities and gender transition are changing ideas about sex and femininity. And through it all the pleasure gap stubbornly persists. With compassion and candor, Orenstein once again gives voice to dozens of girls who describe their joys and frustrations with sex and connection. The result is an urgent, sometimes startling, always enlightening and deeply important portrait of young women’s expectation and experience in their most intimate relationships.

Recenzii
Praise for Girls & Sex
A vital work for parents and teachers of teenagers
Peggy Orenstein sheds light on an important and too often misunderstood topic. Her reporting shows how a healthy and direct approach to sexuality is a key component of gender equality
Fascinating. . . A wise and sharply argued look at how girls are navigating the complicated new landscape of sex and sexuality
Thought-provoking. . . Girls & Sex is full of thoughtful concern and empathetic questions
If you're going to talk about women in the 21st century, you MUST read Peggy Orenstein's Girls & Sex. No one else is asking these questions; so no one else, then, is finding out the answers
Girls & Sex should be mandatory for anyone who cares about the present and future cultural landscape for girls, women, humans
I'm not going to tell you to go right now and buy a copy. . . I'm going to tell you to buy two copies: One for yourself, and one for the teenager in your life
Thoughtful, empathetic
A nuanced read for anyone who remembers being a young woman and anyone who is raising the next generation of girls (and boys) for whom we hope the future holds sexual satisfaction, not pain or disappointment
Sex and teenagers have always gone together, but parents reading Orenstein's frank exploration of current trends may still be in for a shock. . . This isn't a comfortable book to read (Orenstein herself admits twinges a few times), but it's an important one
Orenstein is such a breezy, funny, writer, it's easy to forget she's an important thinker too
Praise for Boys & Sex
Blows your mind on every page
I can't think of a more important book for our times . . . Should be mandatory reading for anyone who cares about the next generation
A stunning portrait of young men in quiet crisis
Both an examination of sexual culture and a guide on how to improve it
Peggy Orenstein sheds light on a sensitive and too often misunderstood issue. . . Her reporting on sexuality is insightful
Every few pages, the boy world cracks open a little bit ... Even in the most anxiety-provoking moments of Boys & Sex, it's clear that Orenstein believes in the goodness of boys and the men they can become
A clear-eyed portrait of how toxic masculinity takes root-and how we must course-correct in raising our boys before it's too late
Broadly welcomed by men as well as well as women
An affirmation of hope, and an exercise in the power of listening
A sobering look at the landscape in which young men are growing up
Expertly written. . . A candid and fascinating portrait of young American masculinity
A brisk, bracing read
Eye-opening and compassionate
