Tales from the Clit: A Female Experience of Pornography edited by Cherie Matrix
2001
Weight: 6.4oz
Method of Disposal: Taking Suggestions!
Any suggestions on how to best ensure that books about sex, pornography, sex work make it into the hands of someone who wants them? Let me know if you would like me to send this one to you!
I reread this book this year, and it is definitely dated. It was published in 1996 and is about the UK. Some things aged really well and some did not. I am sure there will still be readers who will relate heavily to some of the authors and their fantasies even now. This book was a good source of personal essays about pornography, S/M, and censorship. It does not delve into academic arguments for or against censorship. It is really more based on feeling and personal pleasures, personal stories. Some of the authors were arrested or had their homes torn up due to censorship.
If you are exploring sex and sexuality, but are fairly new to the world beyond heteronormativity, this might be a good introduction still.
