Loving to Survive: Sexual Terror, Men's Violence, and Women's Lives - Feminist Crosscurrents
Dee L.R. Graham
Loving to Survive explores women's bonding to men as it relates to men's violence against women. It proposes that, like hostages who work to placate their captors lest they kill them, women work to please men, and from this springs women's femininity. Femininity describes a set of behaviors that please men because they communicate a woman's acceptance of her subordinate status.
