Slut! : growing up female with a bad reputation
- "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. Author Leora Tanenbaum herself was labeled a slut in high school. The confessional article she wrote for Seventeen about the experience caused a sensation and led her to write this book."
- "Leora Tanenbaum's Slut! is an account of the lives of young women who stand up to the destructive power of name-calling. Slut! seamlessly weaves together three narrative threads: powerful oral histories from an impressive and diverse group of girls and women who tell us their stories and how they finally overcame sexual labelling; Leora's own fascinating story; and her cogent analysis of the underlying problem of sexual stereotyping."
