CHAPTER

Challenging Heteronormative Sexual Dynamics

This chapter critiques traditional perspectives on heterosexuality, focusing on how penetrative sex is often prioritized at the expense of female pleasure and autonomy. It also explores societal pressures that influence sexual expectations, including the concept of 'maintenance sex' where women's desires are sidelined. Through discussions of consent and the portrayal of sex work, the chapter highlights systemic inequalities and the need to redefine sexual well-being in relationships.
