The truth about slutshaming and what we can do to fight it

Brought to you by Penguin.

You might have thought the era of slutshaming was behind us. But it’s far from over.

In this powerful and timely investigation, Beth uncovers the persistent reality of slutshaming in today’s world. She examines how these harmful attitudes have changed over time, why they are so dangerous, what we can do to challenge them, and how we can all have better conversations about sex.

The fight starts now.
