Girl on Girl: How Pop Culture Turned a Generation of Women Against Themselves — Sophie Gilbert
From an Atlantic Critic and Pulitzer Prize Finalist · A Sharp and Urgent Cultural Critique
In Girl on Girl, Sophie Gilbert examines how the pop culture landscape of the late ’90s and early 2000s reshaped feminism into something far more commercialized, performative, and damaging. Moving through tabloid culture, reality TV, fashion, music videos, internet culture, and celebrity obsession, Gilbert unpacks the ways women were encouraged to compete, self-objectify, and police one another — often under the guise of empowerment. Smart, furious, and deeply researched, Girl on Girl connects the cultural forces of the early internet era to many of the conversations surrounding feminism, identity, and misogyny today.
