Sexed Up: How Society Sexualizes Us, and How We Can Fight Back

A powerful argument against sexual violence in all its forms, as well as a cutting examination of its damaging effects on the LGBTQ+ community and people of all genders. Julia Serano, author of Whipping Girl, posits that sexualization is a more wide-spread issue than just cis men objectifying cis women—it also encompasses racial stereotypes, sexual biases, class discrimination, and other modes of marginalization. Putting forth an original analysis and charting a path for resistance, Serano seeks to free us from the sociocultural binds of sexualization.
