Don't Call Me Princess: Essays on Girls, Women, Sex, and LifeThe New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex and Cinderella Ate My Daughter delivers her first ever collection of essays funny, poignant, deeply personal and sharply observed pieces, drawn from three decades of writing, which trace girls' and women's progress (or lack thereof) in what Orenstein once called a "half changed world." Named one of the "40 women who changed the media business in the last 40 years" by Columbia Journalism Review,

The New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex and Cinderella Ate My Daughter delivers her first ever collection of essays--funny, poignant, deeply personal and sharply observed pieces, drawn from three decades of writing, which trace girls' and women's progress (or lack thereof) in what Orenstein once called a "half-changed world."

Named one of the "40 women who changed the media business in the last 40 years" by Columbia Journalism Review, Peggy Orenstein is one of the most prominent, unflinching feminist voices of our time. Her writing has broken ground and broken silences on topics as wide-ranging as miscarriage, motherhood, breast cancer, princess culture and the importance of girls' sexual pleasure. Her unique blend of investigative reporting, personal revelation and unexpected humor has made her books bestselling classics.

In Don't Call Me Princess, Orenstein's most resonant and important essays are available for the first time in collected form, updated with both an original introduction and personal reflections on each piece. Her takes on reproductive justice, the infertility industry, tensions between working and stay-at-home moms, pink ribbon fear-mongering and the complications of girl culture are not merely timeless--they have, like Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, become more urgent in our contemporary political climate.

Don't Call Me Princess offers a crucial evaluation of where we stand today as women--in our work lives, sex lives, as mothers, as partners--illuminating both how far we've come and how far we still have to go.

Perfect!!!
Size: 7-8 Women/6-7 Men, Color: Black-w001
I absolutely love these water shoes. I wear them around the house, getting out of shower, even outside. I’m a stroke survivor that was paralyzed. One of the biggest hurdles of walking again is feeling the ground . One day I thought water shoes would work. After trying a few types I fell in love with these. So easy to put on. Comfortable. Feels one nothing on . I’m buying in multiple colors . Love love love these. Game changer for someone learning to walk again. My feet don’t sweat in them . I wear with and without socks . Easy to wash quick to wrong put and dry. Non slip.

Number of Items: 6, Color: Black (6-pack), Size: X-Large
These black T shirts are a great buy. The quality is solid, the material feels comfortable, and they fit really well without being too tight or too loose. They hold their shape after washing and the color stays nice and dark. Perfect for everyday wear, whether it is for layering or just a simple outfit. The multipack makes it even better value for the price. Definitely worth it and I would buy again.

Good quality and value for my son!
Number of Items: 5, Color: Black/Sport Grey/Charcoal, Size: Large
I bought the Gildan Men’s Crew T-Shirts multipack on Amazon for my 12-year-old son, who is on the heavier side and thus sometimes difficult to shop for. Pre-teen kids grow fast and go through clothes quickly, so I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on basics he’ll probably outgrow in a year. These shirts are really affordable, especially for a multipack, and the quality is surprisingly good for the price. The fabric is soft and comfortable, and my son says they feel good to wear all day at school. They’re lightweight and did not shrink after washing. I also like that the shirts don’t get stretched out like some cheaper T-shirts do. The fit works well for him too. They’re simple, classic crew neck tees that can be worn on their own or layered under hoodies and jackets. We’ve used them for school and just everyday wear. Another thing I appreciate is that they’re easy to care for. I just toss them in the wash and dryer and they come out looking fine every time. Overall, these are a great value. If you need affordable, comfortable basic T-shirts for a growing kid (or an adult!), this pack is definitely worth buying.
