Rethinking Sex

Book • 2022

In 'Rethinking Sex: A Provocation', Christine Emba critiques the current consent-only approach to sex, arguing it may not be the solution to sexual malaise.

She advocates for a more humane philosophy that considers emotional, mental, and social implications of sex, drawing from historical thinkers and contemporary issues like #MeToo.

Emba suggests that while consent is essential, it should be complemented by a deeper understanding of what makes sex fulfilling and respectful.
