Mariana Valverde

Exploding many traditional notions of sexuality, Sex, Power & Pleasure investigates the sexual lives of women today. Mariana Valverde, supportive of the changes wrought by the "sexual revolution," here unravels the stormy debates surrounding it now. She explores the issues of pornography, censorship, eroticism and power. Highlighting both the experiential and the theoretical, Valverde candidly discusses heterosexuality, lesbianism and bisexuality. With wit and insight she evaluates the dramatic changes women are making in their sexual lives and argues that they are not simply victims of society's conditioning. Sex, Power & Pleasure is a controversial and exciting work that adds a new and fascinating dimension to our understanding of women's sexuality.
