Description

What really happens behind the statistics of teenage promiscuity? Why will no one talk about the trend of young girls using sex to prove their worth -- to boys, to friends, and to themselves? Kerry Cohen, psychotherapist and author of the provocative memoir Loose Girl, answers these questions while providing real-life stories from teenage girls, in their own words.
