Marriage is a commitmentthat involves our bodies, our minds, our money, our families, and our friends. It is tied in inextricable ways to who we think we are and how we relate toothers. It has also been one of the most controversial subjects in feministdebate. Taking that history into account, A Feminist Guide to Marriage confrontssomething that many feminists still do not want to admit, which is that marriagemust be considered and analyzed for social justice to succeed. Many well-meaning people decide to marry, andthe future of all our intimate relationships-whether we marry or not-depends onappraising this thorny, contradictory institution more accurately. Written by a scholar ofpopular culture who has been teaching for 25 years and married to a man for 15,A Feminist Guide to Marriage shares stories from real people (includingthe author) about everything from dating to divorce.

Withchapters on sex, money, children, and monogamy, among others, this book willhelp you to use feminist ideals to live, think, act, and love.
