Rethinking Sex : A Provocation
Emba believes that our current norms and discussions about sex and consent aren’t enough, and I can see her point. However, not living in the current dating scene or having any idea how much mentioned in the book is true or not, I feel under-qualified to comment strongly either way.
However, I wonder if her argument is weakened by focusing primarily on hetero-normative couples in US / North American society. I suspect that by not including marginalized voices, and the insight they bring to how and why we talk about consent, Emba misses out on a wealth of discussion missing from hetero-normative discourse.
