From lustless sex & sexless lust: overcoming social compulsion & finding lively intimacy
No more sex at last!
The pressure to have great sex is omnipresent today. Beate Absalon invites you to shake it off and explore the possibilities of wilful and inventive pleasure.
You can feel sorry for sex. It could be a refuge for mutual pleasure and useless craziness - but it has become a cramped project that absolutely has to succeed so that we too can be considered successful, even where we are already doing better in queer-feminist terms.
In her search for de-stressing, Beate Absalon takes a culturally and historically informed look at the secluded but only supposed opposite side of sexuality: Unlust, asexuality, celibacy and dysfunction, which gleefully refuse to obey the sexual duty of service and open up unheard-of scope.
