About the book

This insightful, deeply personal history of early-2000s subcultures lovingly explores the difficulty of applying radical feminist values to real-life dilemmas, and embrace an evolving political and personal consciousness. Whitney traces the sometimes painful clash between her feminist values and everyday, adult realities - and anyone who has worked to integrate their political ideals into their daily life will resonate with the histories and analysis on these pages, such as engaging in antidomestic violence advocacy while feeling trapped in an unhealthy relationship, envisioning a unified 'girl utopia' while lacking racial consciousness, or espousing body positivity while feeling ambivalent towards one's own body.
