Meer over het boek

The book examines the pervasive influence of sexuality in modern culture, linking it to shifts in sexual politics since the post-war era. It is divided into three sections: the evolution of pornography from elite to mass culture, the role of sexuality in contemporary art by figures like Jeff Koons and Madonna, and the portrayal of sex and gender in various media. The author analyzes how representations of sexuality and gender roles reflect significant societal changes, highlighting both progress and backlash within advanced capitalist societies.
