Abstract:
Examines the enormous cultural impact of this newest wave of post-feminism. The author explains that these new women believe they are expressing sexual liberation and female empowerment, when really they are only conforming to stereotypes cooked long ago. This book stands firmly in the tradition of Faludi's "Backlash" and Wolf's "The Beauty Myth".
