Book Description
A provocative, elegantly written analysis of female desire, consent, and sexuality in the age of MeToo Women are in a bind. In the name of consent and empowerment, they must proclaim their desires clearly and confidently. Yet sex researchers suggest that women’s desire is often slow to emerge. And men are keen to insist that they know what women—and their bodies—want. Meanwhile, sexual violence abounds. How can women, in this environment, possibly know what they want? And why do we expect them to? In this elegant, searching book—spanning science and popular culture; pornography and literature; debates on Me-Too, consent and feminism—Katherine Angel challenges our assumptions about women’s desire. Why, she asks, should they be expected to know their desires? And how do we take sexual violence seriously, when not knowing what we want is key to both eroticism and personhood? In today’s crucial moment of renewed attention to violence and power, Angel urges that we remake our thinking about sex, pleasure, and autonomy without any illusions about perfect self-knowledge. Only then will we fulfil Michel Foucault’s teasing promise, in 1976, that “tomorrow sex will be good again.”

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The porn actor James Deen made a film with a fan named Girl X in 2010. She was nervous, but Deen said she was awe-struck by his celebrity. She could back out at any time, and he said they could rip up the contract if she was uncomfortable. #2 When Girl X asks herself what she is doing with her life, she is also asking herself if she wants to be slut-shamed for having sex with Deen. She is grappling with the spectators inside her head and the power of spectacle itself. #3 The experience of sex for Girl X is a painful and familiar one. She is pulled in different directions, and has to balance desire with risk. She has to pay attention to so much in the pursuit of pleasure. #4 MeToo has created a culture that prizes women’s speech, and yet many women are not being listened to or believed.

Book Description
On the fraught bonds between daughters and their fathers, women and the patriarchywomen patriarchy In this beguiling, incisive book, critically acclaimed writer Katherine Angel examines the place of fathers in contemporary culture with her characteristic mix of boldness and nuance, asking how the mixture of love and hatred we feel toward our fathers—and patriarchal father figures—can be turned into a relationship that is generative rather than destructive. Moving deftly between psychoanalysis from Freud to Winnicott, cultural visions of fathering from King Lear to Ivanka Trump, and issues from incest to MeToo, Angel probes the fraught bond of daughters and fathers, women and the patriarchal regime. What, she asks, is this discomfiting space of love and hate—and how are we to reckon with both fealty and rebellion? As in her earlier book Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again, Angel proves herself to be one of the most perceptive feminist writers at work today.

Book Description
The literature of lesbian/gay/queer studies reflects an urgent need for effective political and social action. However, writers in this area are often charged with ignoring this need, turning instead to sophisticated theorizing about identity and representations. In this collection of papers, scholars from a wide range of disciplines explore teaching and research theory, and examine its implications in spheres such as AIDS education, social services, law reform, and popular culture.
