The new buzzword in female sexuality is “sexual fluidity” — the idea that for many women, sexual identity can shift over time, often in the direction of same-sex relationships. In a culture increasingly open to accepting this fluidity, Dear John, I Love Jane is a timely, fiercely candid exploration of female sexuality and personal choice. With a foreword by Dr. Lisa Diamond, the author of Sexual Fluidity, this book is comprised of essays written by a broad spectrum of women, including a number of well-known writers and personalities. Their stories are sometimes funny, sometimes painful — but always achingly honest — accounts of leaving a man for a woman, and the consequences of making such a choice. They discuss what they miss and dont miss in their new relationships; the impact its had on family, friends, and career; the rewards and promise of embracing their preferences; and, most importantly, the defining moment of truth that led them to reassess — and change — their romantic relationships. Arousing, inspiring, bawdy, bold, and heartfelt, Dear John, I Love Jane is an engrossing introduction to and reflection of a new era of female sexuality.
