A nuanced investigation into the sexual, economic, and emotional lives of women in America. In a provocative, groundbreaking work, National Magazine Award finalist Rebecca Traister, “the most brilliant voice on feminism in the country” (Anne Lamott), traces the history of unmarried and late-married women in America who, through social, political, and economic means, have radically shaped our nation.
In 2009, the award-winning journalist Rebecca Traister started All the Single Ladies—a book she thought would be a work of contemporary journalism—about the twenty-first century phenomenon of the American single woman. It was the year the proportion of American women who were married dropped below fifty percent; and the median age of first marriages, which had remained between twenty and twenty-two years old for nearly a century (1890–1980), had risen dramatically to twenty-seven.
But over the course of her vast research and more than a hundred interviews with academics and social scientists and prominent single women, Traister discovered a startling truth: the phenomenon of the single woman in America is not a new one. And historically, when women were given options beyond early heterosexual marriage, the results were massive social change—temperance, abolition, secondary education, and more.
Today, only twenty percent of Americans are wed by age twenty-nine, compared to nearly sixty percent in 1960. The Population Reference Bureau calls it a “dramatic reversal.” All the Single Ladies is a remarkable portrait of contemporary American life and how we got here, through the lens of the single American woman. Covering class, race, sexual orientation, and filled with vivid anecdotes from fascinating contemporary and historical figures, All the Single Ladies is destined to be a classic work of social history and journalism. Exhaustively researched, brilliantly balanced, and told with Traister’s signature wit and insight, this book should be shelved alongside Gail Collins’s When Everything Changed.
Rebecca Traister writes about politics and gender for Salon, and has contributed to the New York Observer, Elle, the New York Times, Vogue, the Nation and other publications. She lives in Brooklyn, NY with her husband.
单身女性这一路走来太不易了,虽然书里略有偏颇有点为了观点而硬套用数据,但也真的感慨希望现代女生们能多些选择。
评分Quite well-researched in spite of the title. 政策研究大有可为 希望社会以更包容更开放更多元化的眼光看待女性的职业选择与婚姻状况 争取平权终归任重道远!
评分最后一章流泪读完,yes, we pave the way for our daughters.
评分五六年前,我处于一种周围人所给予的“你为何还不找男朋友”的压力之下。我一度因自己独身而产生过轻微的羞耻感。默认的模式是成双入对,单身是一种残缺状态。我不觉得这是什么女性主义,这不过是一种抗争,力求一种自主的权利。由你自己选择是否结婚。重要的是自主选择,只是后面的宾语,有时候恰好是是否结婚罢了。
评分非学术著作所以论著并不深入,但是却是向大众正面的介绍单身独立女性群体的一本好书。我相信当婚姻成为了一种选择而不是必须,在婚姻这个围城内外的人都会更开心。
生育跟婚姻可以分离,女性可以通过冻卵等技术选择生育年龄,拥有自己的事业理想,在关系中自由进出,在书的最后,我开始乐观。 读这本书的过程中,我时常感到难受,因为目睹社会对女性种种压制,从历史、政治、观念、生理各个方面发出的明枪暗箭,非常复杂,让人无力。 看到群...
评分对于远离家人的都市女性来说,《单身女性的时代》是一本像武器一般的书,每个单身女孩都可以拿着它对自己的家人说,看到没有,书上说了,一个人也可以过得很好。 这本书本身就是反击。长期以来,无论中外,对单身女性的污名都是压在这些女性头顶的大山,无论事业多么成功,她们...
评分单身和女性两个词放在一起,总显得有那么一点点特别,人们看到“单身女性”,第一时间冒出的想法也不尽相同。随着近来各种各样教女人为“奴”的内容甚嚣尘上,国内单身女性所处的社会环境实在不算友好,而反观大洋彼岸,丽贝卡·特雷斯特的《我的孤单,我的自我:单身女性的时...
评分《傲骨之战》第二季末尾,Lucca的母亲对她说,如果你想知道一段关系能否长久,可以设想每天回家看到门口停着那个人的车时是否会感到快乐。Lucca回答说她回家不想看到任何人,她母亲接着说,那你就应该等到有那样一个让你开心的人出现时。 建议女儿在明确自己所愿之前不贸然踏入...
