What really happens behind the statistics of teenage promiscuity? Why will no one talk about the trend of young girls using sex to prove their worth-to boys, to friends, and to themselves? Kerry Cohen, psychotherapist and author of the provocative memoir "Loose Girl," answers these questions while providing real-life stories from teenage girls in their own words. "Dirty Little Secrets" is a ground-breaking examination of the subject and a genuine discussion about how we can make changes for ourselves, our daughters, and our culture.
