Dove chi ha trent’anni e non vuole figli non deve subire pressioni. Dove il ‘maschio alfa’ non è l’unico modello per un uomo. È un mondo dove le persone queer non sono considerate ‘diverse’. Dove ogni corpo è bello e degno di esistere. Cultura dello stupro e sessismo sono un brutto ricordo. Un mondo dove di sesso si parla anche a scuola, nei programmi di educazione sessuale e affettiva. Questo mondo non è ancora qui.

Riotous and galvanizing, Tits Up excavates the diverse truths of mammary glands from the strip club to the operating room, from the nation’s oldest human milk bank to the fit rooms of bra designers. Thornton draws insights from plastic surgeons, lactation consultants, body-positive witches, lingerie models, and “free the nipple” activists to explore the status of breasts as emblems of femininity. She examines how women’s chests have become a billion-dollar business, as well as a stage for debates about race, class, gender, and desire.

In the years after World War II, the airline stewardess became one of the most celebrated symbols of American womanhood. Stewardesses appeared on magazine covers, on lecture circuits, and in ad campaigns for everything from milk to cigarettes. Airlines enlisted them to pose for publicity shots, mingle with international dignitaries, and even serve (in sequined minidresses) as the official hostesses at Richard Nixon's inaugural ball. Embodying mainstream America's perfect woman, the stewardess was an ambassador of femininity and the American way both at home and abroad.
