The dominant force in the lives of girls coming of age in America
today is social media. What it is doing to an entire generation of
young women is the subject of award-winning Vanity Fair writer
Nancy Jo Sales s riveting and explosive American Girls.With
extraordinary intimacy and precision, Sales captures what it feels
like to be a girl in America today.&,nbsp,From Montclair to
Manhattan and Los Angeles, from Florida and Arizona to Texas and
Kentucky, Sales crisscrossed the country, speaking to more than two
hundred girls, ages thirteen to nineteen, and&,nbsp,documenting
a massive change in the way girls are growing up, a phenomenon that
transcends race, geography, and household
income.&,nbsp,American Girls provides a disturbing portrait of
the end of childhood as we know it and of the inexorable and
ubiquitous experience of a new kind of adolescence one dominated by
new social and sexual norms, where a girl s first crushes and
experiences of longing and romance occur in an accelerated
electronic environment, where issues of identity and self-esteem
are magnified and transformed by social platforms that provide
instantaneous judgment. What does it mean to be a girl in America
in 2016? It means coming of age online in a hypersexualized culture
that has normalized extreme behavior, from pornography to the
casual exchange of nude photographs, a culture rife with a virulent
new strain of sexism and a sometimes self-undermining notion of
feminist empowerment, a culture in which teenagers are spending so
much time on technology and social media that they are not
developing basic communication skills. From beauty gurus to
slut-shaming to a disconcerting trend of exhibitionism, Nancy Jo
Sales provides a shocking window into the troubling world of today
s teenage girls.&,nbsp,Provocative and urgent, American Girls
is destined to ignite a much-needed conversation about how we can
help our daughters and sons negotiate unprecedented new challenges.
