Or a sex kitten in a teddy? This is the dual vision of the college girl, the unique American archetype born when the age-old conflict over educating women was finally laid to rest. College was a place where women found self-esteem, and yet images in popular culture reflected a lingering distrust of the educated woman. Thus such lofty cultural expressions as \u003cem\u003eSex Kittens Go to College\u003c\/em\u003e (1960) and a raft of naughty pictorials in men's magazines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As in \u003cem\u003ePink Think\u003c\/em\u003e, Lynn Peril combines women's history and popular culture--peppered with delightful examples of femoribilia from the turn of the twentieth century through the 1970s--in an intelligent and witty study of the college girl, the first woman to take that socially controversial step toward educational equity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynn Peril\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0393327159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780393327151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
