Near the end of the book Naomi Wolf writes "sex is in the mind" but continues that it is not what we are taught to do but what we are taught to think. Much of the work leading up to this statement reveals what we are taught and at times compares "modern western' social mores with those of the past and of other cultures. A thought provoking book that I recommend everyone read but especially recommend it for girls that are in the process of becoming 'women', not just physically, but emotionally and intellectually as a counter-balance to what may be taught in sex-ed curricula and/or religious indoctrination.

Naomi Wolf can not make up her mind. In her other books, she trashes our personal freedoms and now she's talking about promiscuity. Her suggestions in other books would make promiscuity illegal. This book is aweful.
