A New Guide to Sex in the 21st Century: The Young Adult Adaptation of ‘The Case Against the Sexual Revolution’
Book • 2025
This book is an adaptation of Louise Perry's 'The Case Against the Sexual Revolution' tailored for a young adult audience.
Perry argues that the changes brought about by the sexual revolution, such as the widespread availability of pornography and the normalization of casual sex, have primarily benefited a small group of powerful men while harming women.
She draws on her experience working in a rape crisis centre and presents a critical view of the sex-positive movement, highlighting its potential to mask harms and ignore the innate differences between men and women.
The book aims to guide young readers through the complexities and dangers of modern sexual culture.
