NEW FROM WOMEN MAKE MOVIES:
HOW TO LOSE YOUR VIRGINITY!
HOW TO LOSE YOUR VIRGINITY is now available from WMM! This provocative and hilarious new documentary from Therese Shechter, director of I WAS A TEENAGE FEMINIST, uses personal testimony and ample wit to explore critical issues around female sexuality, youth and the confounding value of sexual purity in an otherwise hypersexualized American society.
Layering vérité interviews and vintage sex-ed films with candid self-reflection and wry narration, Shechter reveals myths, dogmas and misconceptions behind this "precious gift." Sex educators, porn producers, abstinence advocates, and outspoken teens share their own stories of having - or not having - sex. In a culture where "Be sexy, but don't have sex" is the overwhelming message to young women, the film goes through the looking glass to understand a milestone almost everyone thinks about but no one actually understands.
