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. From World War II-era "victory girls" to teen lesbians in the 1940s and 1950s, these nonconforming women and girls navigated and resisted intense social and interpersonal pressures to fit existing mores, using the upheavals of the era to pursue new sexual freedoms. Building on a new generation of research on postwar society, Littauer tells the history of diverse young women who stood at the center of major cultural change and helped transform a society bound by conservative sexual morality into one more open to individualism, plurality, and pleasure in modern sexual life"--Publisher description. 505 00 $t Conclusion: feminist sexual futures. $t Victory girls : sex, mobility, and adventure on the home front -- $t B-girls : soliciting drinks and negotiating sex in mid-century bars -- $t Tearing off the veil : women and girls respond to the Kinsey report -- $t Going steady : permissiveness, petting, and premarital sex in the 1950s -- $t Someone to love : teen girls, queer desire, and contested meanings of immaturity in the 1950s -- $t Conclusion: feminist sexual futures. 650 0 $a Sex customs $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Sex customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114306 650 7 $a Women $x Sexual behavior. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176942 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Kvinnlig sexualitet $x historia. $2 sao 651 4 $a FoÌrenta staterna. 650 7 $a Junge Frau. $0 (DE-588)4162897-4 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sexualverhalten. $0 (DE-588)4116485-4 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Soziale Norm. $0 (DE-588)4132883-8 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sozialer Wandel. $0 (DE-588)4077587-2 $2 gnd 651 7 $a USA. $0 (DE-588)4078704-7 $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 648 7 $a 1900-talet $2 sao 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Gender & American culture. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021015614.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092255.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=75A46EA8580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
