- Description
- This book paints a picture of women's active involvement in reshaping intimate and public sexual life in East Asia. In bringing together new feminist research on sexuality from East Asia and making it available to a wider audience, this book unsettles stereotypes, rectifies lack of awareness and demonstrates that East Asia matters. The chapters address the diversity and variety of everyday sexual lives and sexual politics in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and Japan. They range from workplace sexual cultures, trans-national sexual relations, the conditions of sex-work and the emergence of new sexual desires, cultures and movements.
