Race, Performance, and Approval of Mayors Book

I am pleased that the 'Good Reads' star system uses the word 'liked' rather than 'enjoyed' - because there is not a lot to enjoy in this collection of excellent papers from the early 1990s exploring feminist approaches to, understandings of and reactions to pornography. The range of analyses is impressive and includes some of the big names in feminist and gender analysis unpacking the complex set of relations between gender, pornography and sexuality. The key thing is that the collection has barely dated in the last twenty years, mainly because we have moved backwards so much as pornography with its reactionary gender politics has become more acceptable, more pervasive, and more mainstream.
