Cheap Sex

The Transformation of Men, Marriage, and Monogamy

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Sex is cheap. This new wide ease of sexual access has been made possible by technology far more than by political or religious shifts. Drawing on survey and interview data, the book scrutinizes the American mating market, highlighting how men's interests dominate it, even while their marriageability recedes.
