"Startling, poignant, real-life stories of how good girls are turned into 'sluts''and why. Leora Tanenbaum is a brilliant young writer."-- Gail Sheehy, author of "New Passages and "The Silent Passage""Slut! is a bracing corrective for any young woman who finds herself at the mercy of the double standard."-- Susan Faludi, author of "Backlash and "Stiffed"Leora Tanenbaum is one of the most astute and thoughtful of the new generation of feminist writers."-- Elizabeth Wurtzel, author of "Prozac Nation and "Bitch"An excellent book. . . . It should be mandatory for [students in] high schools and colleges to read it. These stories are heart-breaking."-- Janeane Garafolo, actor and comedian"Tanenbaum's argument is as sharp as the tongue of a ninth grade girl."-- "BUST Magazine"Leora Tanenbaum has taken one of the most hateful words of abuse and used it as the title of a book to help teenage girls."-- "CBS This Morning"Through bitter experience, either their own or a friend's, [young women] know that Leora Tanenbaum is right."-- "The Washington Post"An eye-opening book."-- "Redbook"Tanenbaum has written an important and alarming book; it deserves serious attention and should encourage serious action."-- "The Women's Review of Books"Tanenbaum [has made a] bold step into the literary world to start a bold discussion."-- "Newsday"Tanenbaum deserves praise for addressing the complications of sluttiness. . . . She makes interesting connections between sluttiness and braininess, gutsiness and independence. . . . This is refreshing stuff in light of the recent attention given to books such as "A Return to Modesty by Wendy Shalit."-- "Nerve"Highly recommended for anyone who has ever judged or beenjudged--which means pretty much everyone."-- "Bitch Magazine""Slut! is a powerful book.... It has potential as an instructional tool (and a cautionary tale) for educators."-- "Seattle Times"A brisk and straightforward analysis of sexual harassment among preteens and adolescents. . . . An especially good resource for young women and their parents."-- "Publishers Weekly"Offers up striking images of the cruelty of teenagers, both male and, more significantly, female, toward the girls whom they have labeled 'sluts.'"-- "Kirkus Reviews"As Tanenbaum persuasively shows, slut-bashing has enormous consequences for everyone, not only for the girls who are harassed."--"San Francisco Bay Times
Includes firsthand accounts from women ages fourteen through sixty-six about how being labeled a "slut" can affect every aspect of one's personality and how growing up with a bad reputation not only hampered, but also freed them. Reprint. 20,000 first printing.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Girls may be called 'sluts' for any number of reasons, including being outsiders, early developers, victims of rape, targets of others' revenge. Often the labels has nothing to do with sex -- the girls simply do not fit in. An important account of the lives of these young women, Slut! weaves together powerful oral histories of girls and women who finally overcame their sexual labels with a cogent analysis of the underlying problem of sexual stereotyping.
