Berebitsky recounts the actual experiences of female and male office workers; draws on archival sources ranging from the records of investigators looking for waste in government offices during World War II to the personal papers of Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown and Ms. magazine founder Gloria Steinem; and explores how popular sources-including cartoons, advertisements, advice guides, and a wide array of fictional accounts-have represented wanted and unwelcome romantic and sexual advances. By giving sex in the office a history, she provides valuable insights into the nature and meaning of sexual harassment today. 410 0$aSociety and the sexes in the modern world. 606 $aSex role$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen employees$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aWomen$xEmployment$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aSex role$xHistory 615 0$aWomen employees$xHistory. 615 0$aWomen$xEmployment$xHistory 676 $a331.40973 700 $aBerebitsky$b Julie$01543794 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789911503321 996 $aSex and the office$93797426 997 $aUNINA
