# Being ’sexy’ has become the most important accolade a teenager can aspire to, outdoing intelligence, success at school and character.

# Even parents have fallen foul of the fashion and everything around today’s women conspires to push them towards sex, sending the implacable message that the sexually inexperienced are uncool, abnormal or hopelessly undesirable.

# Nowadays, girls who resist a boy’s advances are no longer backed up by a social consensus which honors their right to say ‘NO’, their right to be chaste.

# Emphasising sex and beauty, the standards by which young women have traditionally been valued - their character, intellect or skills - are being eroded.

# Women are actually living in a profoundly anti-feminist landscape where girls compete for attention on the basis of how much they’re prepared to do sexually for men.
