520    "American Christian Women under 40 are being theologically
       trained in unprecedented numbers, accessing leadership in 
       their communities through both orthodox and unorthodox 
       avenues, and balancing the roles of professional, wife, 
       mother, girlfriend, and friend. With all of the perceived 
       progress, why do they feel like their young voices still 
       aren't being heard? And if they found the courage to speak,
       what would they want to say?  The latest book in the I 
       Speak For Myself series addresses the experiences of faith,
       gender, and identity that remain taboo for American 
       Christian Women Under 40. Is it our desire to remain 
       childless in a Catholic tradition that largely defines 
       women by their ability to reproduce? Is it our struggle 
       with pornography in an evangelical subculture that 
       addresses it only as the temptation of unsatisfied men? 
       From masturbation, miscarriage, and menstruation to 
       ordination, co-habitation, and immigration, this 
       collection of essays explores the most provocative topics 
       of faith left largely unspoken in 21st century American 
       faith life. For women and their partners, faith leaders 
       and their members, historians and their students, this 
       book documents the voices of young Christian women and 
       their refusal to be silent any longer"--|cProvided by
