Description
Women are often considered to be the ones who want less sex. What happens when they want more?
Always Wanting More follows women whose desire has shaped their lives since adolescence. They're women who recognized from a young age that their desires felt different than those of their peers, who thought about sex more frequently, wanted sex more often than their partners, and whose sexuality was a constant presence as they navigated the world. Their stories-complex and unapologetic-shed light on the struggles of living in a culture that fails to understand them while also suggesting new pathways toward sexual autonomy and pleasure.
Alicia M. Walker weaves together personal narratives, cultural commentary, and sociological analysis to reexamine women's experiences with desire, stigma, pleasure, fantasy, emotional intimacy, and the social meanings attached to female sexuality. The result is a bold, necessary interruption to our socially-constructed ideas of gender and desire and a multifaceted portrait of women whose sexuality is both the operating force in their lives and psychologically central to how they view themselves.
Instead of dismissing a woman's desires as “too much,” Walker expands the terrain of possibility, revealing what happens when a woman dares to want a life that's different from what she's supposed to.
