Bisexuality
Bisexuality: A Critical Reader presents the essential primary texts on bisexuality from the last 100 years in an easy-to-read format. Exploring this often controversial concept from a range of perspectives, this book places bisexuality in its historical and cultural context and explores its many meanings and uses. Merl Storr's introductions give a straightforward overview of the texts included and sets them clearly in the context of debates on bi…

Deleuze and Queer Theory
This collection of work introduces a major shift in debates on sexuality: a shift away from discourse, identity, and signification, to a radical new conception of bodily materialism. Moving away from the established path known as queer theory, it suggests an alternative to Judith Butler's matter/representation binary. The book thus dares to ask how to think sexuality and sex outside the discursive and linguistic context that has come to dominate …
Classy Lingerie
Underwear is the most intimate form of dress, and the type of underwear known as 'lingerie' is particularly invested with meanings of femininity, sexuality and pleasure. This article focuses on mass-market lingerie and is based on an ethnographic study of Ann Summers home shopping parties at which lingerie, sex toys and other 'personal' products are sold to women in the UK. The analysis draws on the work of Bourdieu and Skeggs to argue that the a…

Challenging the Kerb Crawler Rehabilitation Programme
During recent years in North America and Europe many feminists have become increasingly critical of responses to street prostitution that concentrate solely on punishing women who sell sex while ignoring their male clients. In order to address this gender imbalance some feminists have advocated the enforcement and/or strengthening of kerb crawling legislation and other schemes that target men who pay for sex. During 1998–9 one initiative, which a…
Response to Elisa Glick
I agree with Elisa Glick's critique of the pro-sex glorification of sexual trans: gression; I agree with her diagnosis of the latent idealism in queer theory. I o welcome her call for a reinvigorated kind of materialist feminism, and I am s I excited by the prospect of new materialist debates and new materialist I praxis in the years to come debates and praxis with many hard tasks awaiting them in the real world, as the contributions to this issu…
Postmodern Bisexuality
Bisexual identity and politics have received unprecedented levels of attention in the US and UK in the last few years. This article begins by asking why it should be precisely now that there has been such an explosion of interest in bisexuality. In doing so it investigates the possible connections between bisexuality and postmodernity, and argues that while bisexuality may be a phenomenon of postmodernity, postmodernist theory - specifically, pos…
