Unscrewed by Jaclyn Friedman – Paperback Book

Unscrewed is a nonfiction paperback book by Jaclyn Friedman examining sexual politics and power dynamics in America. The book investigates the state of sexual equity between genders and analyzes how media, religion, politics, and education shape intimate life and sexual autonomy. Friedman identifies and critiques what she terms “fauxpowerment”—the appearance of sexual agency without substantive power—and provides analysis of the cultural and systemic factors that contribute to this condition. The book combines reportage and cultural commentary to explore the roots of anxiety and fear around sexuality, then offers frameworks for readers to address these issues. Material: Paper. Country of origin: USA.
