Sample Book Insights:

#1 The goal of burlesque parties is to look fuckable. At such parties, students are often completely shitfaced.

#2 The first step in hooking up is to get shitfaced. Party-oriented students believe that drinking enhances their experience. They believe that alcohol improves their personality, and that getting drunk brings out their intoxicated self, which is freer and more fun to be around.

#3 At Central Michigan University, some students admitted that they pretended to drink and were even bullied for not doing so. The study even documented how non-drinkers were treated at parties.

#4 At college parties, women are expected to grind with any male that will have them. Men watch their female classmates mimic heterosexual grinding, but this is often accompanied by jokes and laughing with each other.
