The Sexual Revolution on College Campuses: Are We Really Liberated?
Christine Emba is a staff writer at The Atlantic and a former opinion columnist and editorial board member at The Washington Post. In 2022, Emba released her book Rethinking Sex: A Provocation, which explores sexual ethics with an emphasis on sexual consent, casual sex, and sexual liberation. She argues that the increased access to casual sex in our modern society has left both women and men feeling unhappy and unsatisfied.
