“Does anyone date anymore?” Today, the authorities tell us that courtship is in crisis. But when Moira Weigel dives into the history of sex and romance in modern America, she discovers that authorities have always said this. Ever since young men and women started to go out together, older generations have scolded them: That’s not the way to find true love. The first women who made dates with strangers were often arrested for prostitution; long before “hookup culture,” there were “petting parties”; before parents worried about cell phone apps, they fretted about joyrides and “parking.” Dating is always dying. But this does not mean that love is dead. It simply changes with the economy. Dating is, and always has been, tied to work.
Lines like “I’ll pick you up at six” made sense at a time when people had jobs that started and ended at fixed hours. But in an age of contract work and flextime, many of us have become sexual freelancers, more likely to text a partner “u still up?” Weaving together over one hundred years of history with scenes from the contemporary landscape, Labor of Love offers a fresh feminist perspective on how we came to date the ways we do. This isn't a guide to “getting the guy.” There are no ridiculous “rules” to follow. Instead, Weigel helps us understand how looking for love shapes who we are―and hopefully leads us closer to the happy ending that dating promises.
Moira Weigel was born in Brooklyn. Her writing has appeared in The Guardian, The Nation, The New Republic, n+1, and The New Inquiry, among other publications, and she is currently completing a PhD in Comparative Literature at Yale University. After years of first-person research on dating, she is off the market. Labor of Love is her first book.
Freedom一章最佳 Cosmopolitan continues to speak as if having choices were the same thing as having power. 這類本質上依然以男性為中心的女權論調 剖析看來不少是由商業化立場驅動的 書的內容不局限於標題的錶述 由男女情場地位不同 擴展到瞭職場乃至整體社會認知的差異 後半漸入佳境!
評分在助教的課上聽到老師提起的reference,Sociological perspective的dating研究。約會從來都不是孤立的,而是和社會經濟fabric交織在一起的。約會不是個人問題,而是一個社會議題。在dating market上身為女性要自知不要被商品化的rhetoric自我綁架,要先清楚瞭解rules再決定要不要regulated by rules.
