Girl on girl how pop culture turned a generation of women against themselves /

Gilbert, Sophie


Index and list of notes included. From Atlantic critic and Pulitzer Prize finalist Sophie Gilbert, a blazing critique of early aughts pop culture. What happened to feminism in the twenty-first century? This question feels increasingly urgent in a moment of cultural and legislative backlash, when widespread uncertainty about the movement's power, focus, and currency threatens decades of progress. Sophie Gilbert identifies an inflection point in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the energy of third-wave and "riot grrrl" feminism collapsed into a regressive period of hyper-objectification, sexualization, and infantilization. Mining the darker side of nostalgia, Gilbert trains her keen analytic eye on the most revealing cultural objects of the era, across music, film, television, fashion, tabloid journalism, and more. What she recounts is harrowing, from the leering gaze of the paparazzi to the gleeful cruelty of early reality TV and a burgeoning internet culture vicious toward women in the spotlight and damaging for those who weren't. Gilbert tracks many of the period?s dominant themes back to the rise of internet porn, which gained widespread influence as it began to pervade our collective consciousness. The result is a devastating portrait of a time when a distinctly American blend of excess, materialism, and power worship collided with the culture?s reactionary, puritanical, and chauvinistic currents. Amid a collective reconsideration of the way women are treated in public, Girl on Girl is a blistering indictment of the matrix of misogyny that undergirded the cultural production of the early twenty-first century, and continues to shape our world today.

If you were here

Johnson, Abigail, 1980-,


Junior Library Guild. Lili Gardner hasn't been back to Nantucket, her dad's favorite place, since her parents divorced six years ago. But Dad passed away recently, leaving her a house on the island and an unsolved mystery about a maligned Gardner ancestor. Lili is determined to finish his life's work, and convinces her mom and sister to spend the summer in Nantucket with her while she looks for answers, and for a connection to her dad. Wren McCleave has a passion for history, but his father refuses to showcase anything real in their tourist trap of a "museum." So when Lili asks Wren for help with her research, Wren can't resist the opportunity to throw himself into something real, even if he dislikes tourists on principle. Lili and Wren only have a summer to find out the truth about Lili's ancestor. But the most surprising truths they uncover aren't about the distant past, but about themselves right here in the present, and about what they want out of the future.
