Have you heard of the new movie, “20th Century Women”? The film takes place in the late 1970s and follows a single mother, Dorothea, who recruits two friends to help her raise her adolescent son, Jamie. The book “Our Bodies, Ourselves” plays a cameo role when Abbie, a punk rock photographer and one of the recruited friends, lends Jamie lends her copy, where he learns all about women’s orgasms.
