Description | This book examines women, sexuality, social anxieties and cultural madness through a feminist psychological approach by integrating clinical case studies, cultural studies, qualitative interviews, and original essays. The author argues that women’s sexuality embodies a permanent state of tension between cultural impulses of destruction and selfishness contrasted with the fundamental possibilities of subversiveness and joy. The book is organized in four parts: How women see their partners through their own sexual experiences (women's emotion work, desire) : How broader cultural narratives about sexuality get created (KillJoy's Kastle and queer/lesbian feminism, the politics of turning rape into nonconsensual sex, women's attitudes about the vulva and vagina): How sexuality enters therapy and psychopathology discourses (definition of sex, sex addiction): and An analysis of how sexuality can serve as a form of resistance and revolt (linking up with anti-capitalism, anarchism, and collective feminist struggles). |
