We know all about women in slang, a pretty sorry story, but women and slang is an undiscovered territory. This is a book-length study of one of language's most intriguing, but previously unexplored questions: what is the relationship of women to slang? Do they use it, do they create it, and is 'female' slang different to the well-known 'male' version? The relationship of women to slang has never been systematically explored. This book provides something entirely new, namely a work wholly devoted to girls' and women's uses of slang.
