Product Description
Book Description
In this latest Hite Report the friendship between women and the societal definitions of such friendship are examined: what are the limits, does it include sex, its historical context, and other pressing issues. With high profile stars such as Madonna and Ellen de Generis very openly exploring the nature of female friendship and women everywhere questioning its nature, Dr Hite's extensively researched findings couldn't be more timely.

Shere Hite takes a whole new slant on female relationships - whether sisters, friends or work colleagues - and explains the underlying cause of their failure. When mothers keep their sexuality hidden from their daughters, it sets-up an atmosphere of distrust, which stays with women throughout their lives. If their mother is unwilling to share her sexuality with her daughter, then the daughter is left wondering if there's something bad about female sexuality (although most people don't have the words to express this). Daughters are left wondering if it's shameful to be a woman and enjoy sex? Is it okay for women to have orgasms? After all, if it were okay, why does their mother have to hide it from them? These questions and more remain unanswered between mothers and their daughters, leaving daughters disempowered and wondering if there's something shameful about being a woman.
Shere Hite writes lucidly. I would recommend this book to anyone trying to understand female relationships.
