Bad Girls: Young Women, Sex, and Rebellion Before the Sixties - Gender and American Culture
Amanda H. Littauer
In this innovative and revealing study of midcentury American sex and culture, Amanda Littauer traces the origins of the “sexual revolution” of the 1960s. She argues that sexual liberation was much more than a reaction to 1950s repression because it largely involved the mainstreaming of a counterculture already on the rise among girls and young women decades earlier.
Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Commendation Quotes: From victory girls and wartime prostitutes to teenage girls petting and going steady, American women in the mid-twentieth century challenged conceptions of sexual respectability. In a fresh and compelling book, Amanda Littauer reconsiders the roots of the transformation of U. S. sexual culture in the 1960s.--Leila J. Rupp, University of California, Santa Barbara Commendation Quotes: Amanda Littauer challenges the image of the sexually repressed 1950s, narrating the volatile stories of young women who found their voices and defied conventional morality. A much-needed and compelling exploration of the sexualized rebellion that catalyzed change in the years before the highly touted 'sexual revolution' of the 1960s.--Elizabeth Fraterrigo, Loyola University Chicago
