This chapter is an introduction and presents an overview of the book. Risman identifies her standpoint as a second-wave white feminist sociologist who has studied gender since throughout the 20th century women’s movement so that the reader knows the context from which she writes. Each chapter is briefly outlined. The second chapter offers a theoretical revision of Risman’s gender structure theory. The third chapter is introduced as a review of what we know about the developmental stage of emerging adulthood. The next several chapters offer a typology of how Millennials wrestle with the gender structure. The chapters are about true believers, straddlers, innovators, and rebels. The final chapter offers a utopian vision for moving forward.
