Book Review of Dateable: Are You? Are They?

Dateable: Are You? Are They?
reviewed Horrid on


This book is a feminist's nightmare. Its view on sex is demeaning and damaging, often advising kids to imagine doing what they are doing with their significant others instead with their grandmothers, implying both that what they are doing is gross and that their grandmothers are gross. It strongly supports the idea that sexual boundaries are and should be largely determined by the woman, who, by the way, needs to close her mouth in order to be "mysterious".

Disturbing and horrible. I had moral issues listing this book here.
