2009

Yes Means Yes: Visions of Sexual Power and a World Without Rape, an anthology co-edited by Friedman and Jessica Valenti, was published in January 2009.

It was selected as one of Publishers Weekly Best 100 Books of 2009, and is number 11 on Ms. magazine's list of Most Influential Feminist Books of All Time.

2010

In 2010 Friedman was selected as a delegate on the Nobel Women's Initiative's peace delegation to Israel and Palestine.

A documentary, Partners for Peace, has been made about the delegation, and Friedman is featured in the film.

In December 2010, Friedman debated Naomi Wolf on Democracy Now! concerning rape allegations against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, in which Wolf controversially described allegations of stealthing against Assange as representing “model cases of sexual negotiation.”

2011

In 2011, inspired by the questions that young women asked her while she was on book tour for Yes Means Yes, Friedman published her second book, What You Really Really Want: The Smart Girl’s Shame-Free Guide to Sex and Safety.

What You Really Really Want was a finalist for Foreword's Book of the Year award in Women's Issues.

Salon.com called it "a sex guide for today's girls," and said of Friedman that she "is the sex educator of many parents' nightmares. She’s also just the teacher young women need".

2012

In 2012, Friedman came under fire for her piece, Unsolicited Advice For Blue Ivy Carter, which was heavily criticized by African-American women for alleged racist overtones.

Friedman subsequently issued a public apology on her blog, and donated the fee she received for the piece to SisterSong, an activist group that primarily deals with women of color.

2017

In 2017, Friedman published Unscrewed: Women, Sex, Power, and How to Stop Letting the System Screw Us All.

In an interview with the Jewish Women's Archive, she identified a Reform Jewish youth group chapter in New Jersey, known as NFTY, as the source of her social justice framework.

Believe Me includes essays by Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, Tatiana Maslany, Samantha Irby, Dahlia Lithwick, Loretta Ross, Jamil Smith, Julia Serano, and more.

Publishers Weekly wrote: "Consistently well-written and soundly reasoned, these essays persuasively cast the tendency to doubt women as one of America’s greatest social ills. This illuminating call to action deserves a wide readership."

Friedman's writings have been published widely, including in The New York Times, Glamour The Guardian, The American Prospect, The Washington Post, The Nation and Salon.

Friedman has appeared as an expert on many shows, including Nightline, NPR’s 1A, PBS NewsHour, and Democracy Now.
