À propos de cet audio

Ditching the stuffy hang-ups and benighted sexual traditionalism of the past is an unambiguously positive thing. The sexual revolution has liberated us to enjoy a heady mixture of erotic freedom and personal autonomy. Right?

Wrong, argues Louise Perry in her provocative new book. Although it would be neither possible nor desirable to turn the clock back to a world of pre-60s sexual mores, she argues that the amoral libertinism and callous disenchantment of liberal feminism and our contemporary hypersexualised culture represent more loss than gain. The main winners from a world of rough sex, hook-up culture, and ubiquitous porn–where anything goes and only consent matters–are a tiny minority of high-status men, not the women forced to accommodate the excesses of male lust. While dispensing sage advice to the generations paying the price for these excesses, she makes a passionate case for a new sexual culture built around dignity, virtue, and restraint.

This counter-cultural polemic from one of the most exciting young voices in contemporary feminism should be listened to by all men and women uneasy about the mindless orthodoxies of our ultra-liberal era.

A must read for all women

I listened to the author on several podcasts and decided to find this book. This book approaches the issues of modern hookup culture from a rational feminist perspective, and goes into history of popular culture spanning the last century. There are some references to the work of David Buss, who is another author worth reading for those who find evolutionary psychology interesting.

Too often the books in this area can be overly pessimistic but nonetheless cathartic (Douglas Murray as an example), so it was pleasantly surprising to hear the objective and optimistic views expressed by the author. Towards the end of the book are several anecdotes followed by the author's genuine actionable solutions.

I look forward to reading more from Louise Perry. Her points were well articulated, and the structure of the book was clear.

Thorough analysis of past and present culture
