Don't Call Me Princess: Essays on Girls, Women, Sex, and LifeThe New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex and Cinderella Ate My Daughter delivers her first ever collection of essays funny, poignant, deeply personal and sharply observed pieces, drawn from three decades of writing, which trace girls' and women's progress (or lack thereof) in what Orenstein once called a "half changed world." Named one of the "40 women who changed the media business in the last 40 years" by Columbia Journalism Review,

The New York Times bestselling author of Girls & Sex and Cinderella Ate My Daughter delivers her first ever collection of essays--funny, poignant, deeply personal and sharply observed pieces, drawn from three decades of writing, which trace girls' and women's progress (or lack thereof) in what Orenstein once called a "half-changed world."

Named one of the "40 women who changed the media business in the last 40 years" by Columbia Journalism Review, Peggy Orenstein is one of the most prominent, unflinching feminist voices of our time. Her writing has broken ground and broken silences on topics as wide-ranging as miscarriage, motherhood, breast cancer, princess culture and the importance of girls' sexual pleasure. Her unique blend of investigative reporting, personal revelation and unexpected humor has made her books bestselling classics.

In Don't Call Me Princess, Orenstein's most resonant and important essays are available for the first time in collected form, updated with both an original introduction and personal reflections on each piece. Her takes on reproductive justice, the infertility industry, tensions between working and stay-at-home moms, pink ribbon fear-mongering and the complications of girl culture are not merely timeless--they have, like Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, become more urgent in our contemporary political climate.

Don't Call Me Princess offers a crucial evaluation of where we stand today as women--in our work lives, sex lives, as mothers, as partners--illuminating both how far we've come and how far we still have to go.

Excellent
Size: 400 Count
Bounty Paper Napkins, White, 400 Count, are a reliable and practical choice for both everyday use and special occasions. These napkins are designed with the classic white color that complements any table setting, making them versatile for family dinners, parties, or casual gatherings. The pack of 400 ensures you have plenty on hand, which is especially handy for larger events or frequent use. Bounty is known for its strong and absorbent paper products, and these napkins live up to that reputation. They hold up well against spills and messes without tearing easily, providing a sense of durability that many other napkins lack. Overall, these napkins offer great value for the quantity and quality. Whether you need them for daily meals or entertaining guests, Bounty Paper Napkins provide a dependable and simple solution. They’re easy to store, use, and dispose of, making clean-up effortless. I would recommend them to anyone seeking a straightforward, dependable napkin option that doesn’t compromise on performance.

Excellent, highly absorbent, napkins for every meal
Size: 400 Count
These napkins are amazing! They are soft and plushy feeling. The absorption is incredible and they have a nice , comfortable texture for wiping your hands and face when eating. I believe these can also be used as a paper towel when needed because the absorbency is so great. I am very sensitive to scents which I pick up on more than the average person and these napkins do not have a weird smell to them . I think these are great napkins for all to enjoy. The price is very reasonable for the amount I received (400ct) 🤗❤️

Great napkins
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)
I keep ordering these BOUNTY PAPER NAPKINS because their versatility, durability foldability appearance and size; these are all great attributes of these napkins. I don't use them for bathroom use but on occasion I do put water on a couple of them to cool my face off which is awesome because they don't tear with that much water as I put on them. The only thing I would suggest for BOUNTY to change is the roughness and thickness of the napkins. They're a little rough not so rough to where I can't stand them but if they were just a little bit softer, not much just a tad bit. Maybe also a little bit thicker. Besides that they're awesome and worth the money
