Summary:
"
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? 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 fulfill Michel Foucault's teasing promise, in 1976, that '
tomorrow
sex
will
be
good
again
.'"--Publisher.
