She starts out by making sure it is very clear that her book is “…Not a fairy tale.” (Penny 1). The subhead of her book title is “Sex, Lies, and Revolution”, this gives preview into topics that will dominate most of the book in one way or another. Penny wastes no time with sugar coating her opinions and criticisms nor does she shy away from subjects that are thought of as difficult to talk about. Within the individual chapters there are many subheads, each which discuss a specific issue or bring up a certain point that relates back to the umbrella topic of the chapter. This organization of the book makes her points clear and easy to follow. Throughout this book she divulges information about her own life, in an autobiographical sort of way.

Penny also shares her thoughts on modern day feminism, politics, and the oppression of women. Towards the end of the book there is a call for a new kind of feminism.
