Raunch gay

Frightened? “What appears to be liberating rebellion is actually a kind of stifling conformity.”

Levy rightly questions the “empowerment” of a narrow definition of sexuality that puts women’s needs second.



However, Levy fails to recognise that the source of sexism isn’t the explosion in public representations of sexuality; and that the depiction of alternative sexualities can play a positive role; and that sexual liberation is not individual decisions about how to survive in a system that commodifies sex and sexuality.

They play an important role in the struggle for democratic rights and against persecution; and in exploring sexual pleasure and desire. Sexism and queerphobia, and the economic system that underpin them, are.
