DescriptionWomen Unite: Our Bodies Ourselves. Copyright 1973. By the Boston Women's Health Book Collective. Softcover vintage book. Illustrated. 276 pages."The landmark women's health handbook was filled with sometimes graphic information about the most intimate aspects of women's lives. It was revolutionary in its candid discussions -- and depictions -- of the specifics of sex, birth control, childbirth, lesbianism and other formerly taboo topics. It was described by evangelical ...pastor Jerry Falwell as "obscene trash." High schools and public libraries banned it, while teenagers -- male and female -- hid it under their beds like a dirty magazine. Women across the country passed it to their friends, their sisters, their neighbors. They read chapters about rape in closets with flashlights. They gaped in dorm rooms at the photos of childbirth."Books will be packed securely for safe shipment. Books will ship via USPS Media Mail, unless otherwise requested.
