Product Information
In “The Sex Myth”, journalist Rachel Hills uses her feminist voice to argue that society is controlled by a new brand of sexual convention that influences all of us. Hence, the Sex Myth, that used to mean we were dirty if we had sex, and is now looked upon as if we are defective if not having enough of it.
The book aims to show some of the building blocks upon which our assumptions about sex are grounded:
- What makes a person good in bed
- Beliefs regarding what is normal and desirable
- The appropriateness of how a man or woman behaves
The book also explains how the Sex Myth has made sex the foundation of our morals and identity, and how the link between sex and self is used to shape behaviors and desires.
