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.

评分Nothing guarantees a different outcome.
评分最后一章流泪读完,yes, we pave the way for our daughters.
评分三星半 故事、数据和slogan的铺陈总结,没有什么特别深刻的洞见,但作为了解当代女性生活的物料集倒还可以,也正好是从各个角度想一想,自己想要选择的是什么样的生活。
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。
读完了这一本书,这一本书罗列了许多事实、数据、史料,比较全面地谈论了美国的单身女性团体。在许多方面颇有启发性。 遗憾的有两点: 1. 中美国情不同。在中国,对于单身女性、不婚主义者、甚至高学历女性的接受度更低,且中国的社会福利制度、医疗保健制度、购房补贴制度尚不...
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...
评分生而为人 但作为女人 和男人是有很多社会意义上的不同的 这本书主要基于美国单身女性群体在社会的发展和影响历史来论述事实上单身女性在如今美国社会是非常普遍现象 以及表达作者自己很欣赏单身女性独立自主生活方式的态度 读这本书 让我很有共鸣 因为这一两年 我间或地思考这...
