Sex Media

Abstract

Attitudes towards sexuality and sexual practices have evolved dramatically with the proliferation of technologies like dating apps, smart sex toys and virtual reality (VR), and relationships between technology and the body have become more complex. Porn is now mainstream, the sex tech industry is buzzing and sex cultures are intertwined with new media practices more strongly than ever before. Feona Attwood's Sex Media addresses these issues from a humanistic, rather than behavioral, perspective, offering a broad, but useful, introduction to the study of gender, media and sexuality.
