Peggy Orenstein on the Messages We Teach Boys About Sex

For more than 25 years, Peggy Orenstein broke new ground with her intimate explorations of girls and sexuality in New York Times bestsellers like “Girls and Sex.” Now she turns her eye to “Boys and Sex,” hearing directly from young men about their most intimate experiences. Christiane speaks with her about the pervasive messages our culture sends about emotional suppression and sexual aggression.
