Purity Myth
From the bestselling author of Sex Object, a searing investigation into American culture's obsession with virginity, and the argument for creating a future where women and girls are valued for more than sexualityThe United States is obsessed with virginity--from the media to schools to government agencies. Through in-depth cultural and social analysis, Valenti reveals that powerful messaging on both extremes--ranging from abstinence-only curriculum to Girls Gone Wild infomercials--place a young woman's worth entirely on her sexuality. In The Purity Myth, Jessica Valenti argues that the country's intense focus on chastity is damaging to young women.
Valenti sheds light on the value--and hypocrisy--around the notion that girls remain virgins until Morals are therefore linked purely to sexual behavior, rather than values like honesty, kindness, and altruism.
