Methodology 194 Acknowledgments 201 Notes 205 References 223 Index 231ReviewsDana Malone has produced an eye-opening and wonderfully candid account of how students navigate gender roles and negotiate sexuality on evangelical college campuses. Powerful and often poignant, the stories she tells illuminate the gap between the ideal of virgin purity and the messy realities students face as they develop relationships outside or prior to marriage. Her empathic portrait gives us the clearest glimpse yet of how young evangelicals are managing the conflicting standards between their strict religious world and what many see as a rule-less society beyond. --R. Marie Girffith author of American Religions: A Documentary History Sometimes insider information makes all the difference. Dana Malone does not disappoint in this carefully analytic description of the relationship culture on evangelical Protestant campuses. Malone painstakingly describes the dating--and sometimes mating--rituals that characterize this American subculture. It is, as she says, about navigating 'a minefield of contradictory messages, ' rules, norms, and codes. Conventional ideas of masculinity and femininity are certainly not dead. The book reminds me of the ways in which American youth aren't just polarized politically, but culturally around the oldest of institutions--marriage--and the most primal of practices, sex. --Mark Regnerus author of Cheap Sex: The Transformation of Men, Marriage, and Monogamy Christian college and university administrators, staff, faculty, and student leaders will all benefit from considering the results of Malone's study. --Christianity Today Selected New Books on Higher Education: How to Ease the Way for Transgender and First-Generation Students by Ruth Hammond mention--Chronicle of Higher Education Sometimes insider information makes all the difference.
