Synopsis
"A must-read for any student--present or former--stuck in hookup culture's pressure to put out." --Ana Valens, Bitch Offering invaluable insights for students, parents, and educators, Lisa Wade analyzes the mixed messages of hookup culture on today's college campuses within the history of sexuality, the evolution of higher education, and the unfinished feminist revolution.

Thank you for a great transaction.

    I purchased multiple books from this seller, and this was a great experience! Each book was listed at a great price! Everything was shipped out quickly, and arrived only a few days after that. The book was packaged appropriately as well. The condition of the book was even better than what was listed, as it looked almost brand new, rather than the “very good” that was stated. I absolutely would buy from this seller again!

    Highly Recommend seller due to professionalism, great communication, and kind to work with. Fun, interesting store to shop in. Quality of book purchased was like new, value was good, and the appearance of it is as if picked up off shelf in any high end bookstore. Very happy with it. Packed very well with extra coupons inside. Shipping cost fair. Delivery was on time. Would buy again due to the care taken with the whole transaction. Thank You for being a day maker with simply good business!!
