"Candid and incisive, Lust dismantles deep-seated assumptions about the interplay of female sexuality, money, and power. Erika Lust delivers a powerful rethinking of agency, respect, and who has a right to pleasure." --Monique El-Faizy, journalist and author of the forthcoming book In This Dark Room "Perhaps no topic in human sexuality is as widely discussed and poorly understood as pornography. Erika Lust brings much-needed nuance to the conversation, challenging readers to question their own assumptions and ask deeper questions about pleasure and power." --Justin J. Lehmiller, PhD, senior research fellow at the Kinsey Institute and author of Tell Me What You Want "Erika Lust has changed the way we see porn, sex, and kink forever--you''re in for a pleasurable read." --Reed Amber and Florence Bark , hosts of Come Curious "If ''the porn business'' is of any interest to you, this is a must-read. The message is timely and timeless: Pleasure is our birthright, rendering sex a suitable subject for art.
