Hite is an utterly fascinating figure and @rosavcampbell.bsky.social’s book about her is a brilliant read.

In the mid 1970s, Shere Hite radically changed how we talk about sex and female pleasure. This episode examines how Hite and other feminists linked sexual pleasure to power, patriarchy, and liberation. With @rosavcampbell.bsky.social buff.ly/LQM6vVq

Bravo @isaacbutler.bsky.social, what an illuminating read this is! Want to know why (and precisely HOW) the New Right came for visual artists in the 1990s? Why did they hate Robert Mapplethorpe SO GODDAMN MUCH that in order to censor him they sent his images to hundreds of thousands of people?!

In every academic book there is a secret second book hiding in the footnotes. Sometimes it is the first draft that had migrated there to escape the revisions. Sometimes it is the author's tortured secret rebuttal of their own claims, and sometimes it is the incipient form of the their next book.
