Shameless Self-Promotion: The Purity Myth is out!

I’m really excited to announce that The Purity Myth: How America’s Obsession with Virginity Is Hurting Young Women is out. (Though super nervous too!)
And while I’m anticipating some backlash – shit, even the title/cover of the book generated some conservative hand-wringing – I’m hoping that it will further the conversation about how the conservative movement uses young women’s bodies and moral panic myths to push traditional gender roles and punish women who don’t fit into the “pure” ideal.
If you want to get more of an idea of what the book is all about, you can download the Introduction here. Hope you enjoy it!
You can buy The Purity Myth on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell’s or Indiebound.
