Charlie Jeffries finds that most adults in this period hesitated to advocate for adolescent sexual and reproductive rights, revealing a new culture war altogether--one between adults of various political stripes in the cultural mainstream who prioritized the desire to delay girlhood sexual experience at all costs, and adults who remained culturally underground in their support for teenagers' access to frank sexual information, and who would dare to advocate for this in public. The book tells the story of how the latter group of adults fought alongside teenagers themselves, who constituted a large and increasingly visible part of this activism. The history of the debates over teenage sexual behavior reveals unexpected alliances in American political battles, and sheds new light on the resurgence of the right in the US in recent years"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $x Sexual behavior $z United States. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $x Public opinion. $z United States $x Public opinion. 650 0 $a Reproductive rights $z United States. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $z United States $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $z United States $x Social conditions. 650 7 $a Reproductive rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01745961 650 7 $a Teenage girls $x Attitudes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145416 650 7 $a Teenage girls $x Sexual behavior. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145449 650 7 $a Teenage girls $x Public opinion. $x Public opinion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145451 650 7 $a Teenage girls $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145452 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Jeffries, Charlie. $t Teenage dreams. $d New Brunswick : Rutgers University Press, [2022] $z 9781978806832 $w (OCoLC)1334104227 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230601010144.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A3623D36004111EEBB5E2E0C29ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
