About

Welcome to GIRLS. I’m Freya India, author of the upcoming book GIRLS®: Generation Z and the Commodification of Everything, which you can pre-order here:

UK: Amazon / Waterstones / All retailers

US: Amazon / Barnes & Noble / Bookshop.org

I’m also a staff writer for Jonathan Haidt’s newsletter, After Babel, and have written for publications including The Free Press, First Things, The Spectator and the New Statesman.

To get a sense of what I write about, here’s my latest conversation on Modern Wisdom:

In this newsletter I write more freely and personally, with a more intimate look into the lives of girls and young women today. In this age of atomisation, sexual liberalism, rapid technological change and a deepening mental health crisis, GIRLS is a series of dispatches trying to make sense of it all.

As often as I can I send out updates with whatever’s been on my mind lately or is going on in the lives of girls and young women. Expect all kinds of topics, from critiques of contemporary feminism to scrutiny of the mental health industry to rants about the relentless commodification of our lives.

I hope GIRLS can be a space where readers of all generations come together to figure out what’s really going on, what life is like for girls and young women today, and why so many of us feel as if we are falling apart.

If you enjoy my work, I would really appreciate your support through a paid subscription. It helps me out more than you know, and every contribution means I can keep writing about an issue very close to my heart. Thank you!
