Explores the ways in which women have been systematically disconnected from their bodies throughout history and the transformative power of reclaiming that connection through pleasure. From the cultural mythology of sex as something women give and men take, to the historical demonization of female pleasure through witch trials and religious doctrine. ‘Pleasure’ traces the ways in which women’s bodies have been turned into religious battlegrounds. Yet, it also reveals the radical, healing power of reclaiming pleasure as an act of resistance and joy. Drawing on personal experiences, cultural analysis and interviews with experts, this title unpacks the myths we’ve inherited – from the virginity ideal to the male-centric view of sex – and how they affect women’s lives today.

In a culture of personal branding and the elevation of wellness jargon as a substitute for meaning, we seek out individuality in tribes. We want to be different, but we don’t want to do it alone. This book opens with an exploration of the role of labels in our culture – the stigma they bring and the doors they open. The way that they can both lubricate our understanding and confine our potential. Comfort and unsettle us. Laura Kennedy explores her own changing relationship with labels – the ones applied from childhood through to adulthood and how they shaped her thinking and experience; how and whether we choose to live outside the limitations of labels that help define our identity and our role in society.
