Unhooked: How Young Women Pursue Sex, Delay Love..

[ILG]

Okay, just finished the book. My take away from the book, although it wasn't particularly eye opening:

1. Hooking up began in the porn industry.
2. Children from stable Christian families are less likely to hookup.
3. The author appears to be focusing, mainly, on high achievers, which means, our brightest are without morals who want to lead our country.
4. Hooking up is mainly revenge on the male - something that Beyonce is pushing today.
5. My brother attended Duke University for his Masters in Mechanical Engineering - I have questions for him. lol

Agree with your points.

My sister has a doctorate in Educational Psychology. However, we are unable to discuss these types of issues.

I wouldn't expect her to do anything other than support a liberal agenda.

Agreed, but it's pretty great that a liberal is opposed to what is happening and sees a need for change!!

My observation - The feminist "values" are still in question, but the quote is a good try on her part. It sounds reasonable, but it doesn't play out that way in real life. You can't make yourself equal to a man no matter how hard you try. We are wired differently. And her book shows that women come away hurting more from that experience than a man.

I think it shows an interesting backfiring of the feminist agenda.

She, of course, had to appeal to her base, the liberal feminists, so that she wouldn't lose her place on the shelf in the world of journalism.

Sure. And she believes it besides.

So, the book is basically instructing teens in secular society - hookup, but bring your numbers down from 18 or 20.

Yeah, that's probably true, but from a conservative standpoint, I found it a fascinating read of what the feminist agenda and the porn industry have done to a generation of youth.
