"Hard to Get "is a powerful and intimate examination of the sex and
love lives of the most liberated women in history--twenty-something
American women who have had more opportunities, more positive role
models, and more information than any previous generation. Drawing
from her years of experience as a researcher and a psychotherapist,
Leslie C. Bell takes us directly into the lives of young women who
struggle to negotiate the complexities of sexual desire and
pleasure, and to make sense of their historically unique but
contradictory constellation of opportunities and challenges. In
candid interviews, Bell's subjects reveal that, despite having more
choices than ever, they face great uncertainty about desire,
sexuality, and relationships. Ground-breaking and highly readable,
"Hard to Get" offers fascinating insights into the many ways that
sex, love, and satisfying relationships prove surprisingly elusive
to these young women as they navigate the new emotional landscape
of the 21st century.
