The idea that if a male does something sexual they don’t receive any form of backlash and are often praised for it, whereas if a girl was to do something she would be slut shamed and everyone would turn against her is so true! It’s not fair that things can be so biased towards someone, it is their body and then can do what they choose to do and should not be judged because of how many sexual partners they’ve had. We have: Slut Shaming, White Privilege, Feminism, Coming to terms with sexuality that a religion doesn’t agree with, the apparent “friend zone”, Revenge Porn and so much more. It has so many topics that can start a conversation, all of the topics are problems that people may face in day to day life, and they are handled amazingly. Where to even begin with this book?! This is one of those where I would honestly want anyone and everyone to read it.
