A SoCon Essay

Some parents do deserve blame for not raising their daughters properly, or even promoting a life of casual sex and promiscuity. But what of feminism and careerism? And this essay seems to downplay the agency of the young women themselves. What about their own poor choices?

Big Pimping by Peachy Keenan
