Description
Episode Description
Birds do it. Bees do it. But we definitely don't want to think about our teens doing it. But eventually, do "it" they will. For her new book, "Girls and Sex. Navigating the Complicated New Landscape" Peggy Orenstein set out to find out how porn, pop culture and popular attitudes about sex influence the way our girls make their way in the world. The central tenet of today's women's movement is equality--in wages, treatment, opportunity. But what about in love and sex? Antonella Vitale is a PhD candidate at the Graduate Center, City University of New York and she is studying the practice known as fuitina, a Sicilian term used to describe the kidnapping of a woman for the purpose of rape or elopement. Very little has been written about it in any scholarly text. And while this may sound like an ancient practice in a far away land, in many countries the concept of reparatory marriage is still alive and well.
