Description

Explore the real history of the sexual revolution with this scholarly work from Routledge. While many believe the sexual revolution began in the 1960s, this book reveals that young couples were actually changing the rules of public and private life for many decades prior. Starting from the early years of the twentieth century, teenagers began to gain more freedom from adult supervision. This shift allowed them to take control of their own sexuality through various social behaviors. The text examines how practices like dating, going steady, necking, petting, and cohabiting sparked widespread concern and advice from adults, much of which was ultimately ignored by the youth of the era. By the time mainstream media started reporting on a revolution, these social changes had already been in motion for half a century. This book provides a necessary look at the long-term evolution of youth culture and social norms in the United States throughout the twentieth century.
