Has feminism betrayed the very women it promised to empower? Deborah France-White, Louise Perry, and Erica Komisar go head-to-head on the hidden costs of sexual freedom.

In this heated debate, they discuss:
-
What casual sex is really doing to women.

Why relationships are declining.
-
The parenting crisis that no one’s talking about.
-
Why fewer people are having children.
-
How modern dating is affecting female self-worth.
