About The BookToday’s adolescent girls are faced with so many pressures – the pressure to be popular, the pressure to fit in at almost any cost, the pressure to compete for attention from boys…often at the risk of their own self-worth, the pressure to have sex at a younger and younger age, the pressure to emulate the objectified images portrayed in popular music videos, television shows and magazines as well as the pressure to engage in behaviors that are in direct conflict with their fundamental beliefs.
