Zusammenfassung: | Heterosexuality as an idea and practice exists only as constant interplay between what counts as normal and what is relegated to the illicit. Explores the contemporary social phenomenon "pornification", that is potentially refiguring normative boundaries, and considers how this might be reorganizing heteronormativity. Uses the case study "SEXPO health, sexuality and lifestyle expos" through which to examine an instance of the pornification of the mainstream. Argues that while many acts and expressions of heterosexual practice are changing shape, a heteronormative culture remains front and centre. (Author abstract - amended) |
