Diablo Cody Hearts Judy Blume. Don't We All!

Even though author Judy Blume has been maddeningly difficult to interview for The American Virgin, I still love her books, especially virginity-loss classic Forever. And although she keeps weasling out of interview requests, she did autograph my copy of Are You There God...It's Me Margaret for me.

I'm so excited for this! I loved "I Was a Teenage Feminist" and can't wait to see how Therese Shechter handles this subject!!

speaking as the newest fan of the American Virgin, I think this going to be a fantastic film. Speaking as the newest film crew member, I think the footage at the "ranch" will be awesome!

Much more than a basic rite of passage, how, when and why we lose our virginity has far-reaching implications rooted in religion, politics, culture and economics. The film connects the dots between the Christian abstinence movement, Hollywood coming-of-age films, the booming field of hymen restoration surgery, the ironic fantasy of 'virgin' porn, and why fathers walk their daughters down the aisle.
