Is heterosexual sex inherently damaging to women? This is the central question of <i>Straight Sex</i>, Lynne Segal’s account of twenty-five years of feminist thinking on sexuality. Covering the thought of sixties-era sexual liberationists, writing on female sexuality from the lesbian community, and the more recent shift toward sexual conservatism, <i>Straight Sex</i> examines an array of issues, including sex as a subversive activity, the “liberated orgasm,” sex advice literature, gender uncertainties, Queer politics, antipornography campaigns and the rise of the moral right.
