Mommy’s Little Girl: On Sex, Motherhood, Porn, and Cherry Pie

by Susie Bright

Susie Bright has gained a reputation as one of the world’s leading writers on sex and sexual politics. Bright’s stories in magazines like Salon, Playboy, and Bust have drawn cultish followings, and her books are national bestsellers. Mommy’s Little Girl contains selected writing since the birth of Bright’s now twelve-year-old daughter, Aretha.

Challenging the idea that a woman cannot be a mother and sex goddess at the same time, this book positions Bright as a beacon of hope for women who feel that their days of openness about their sexuality must come to an end after they have a child. Bright describes how her daughter and her classmates have made her aware of how sexually charged children are these days, yet dangerously lack a proper education about their own bodies.

From reminiscing on her role as “lesbian consultant” to the directors of The Matrix to her hilarious instruction for both men and women on how to ruin their sex lives in twelve easy steps, Bright’s always provocative, often hilarious prose is sure to appeal to anyone with a heartbeat, and tops it off with the perfect end to perfect sex — a recipe for lustful cherry pie!
