‘This is not a fairytale. This is a story about how sex and money and power police our dreams.’

This is a book about poverty and prejudice, online dating and eating disorders and lies on the television. The backlash is on against sexual freedom for men and women and social justice. Penny speaks for a new feminism that is about justice and equality. It’s about the freedom to be who we are, to love who we choose, to invent new gender roles, and to speak out fiercely against those who would deny us those rights.
