This was fun, heavy, heartbreaking and empowering all at the same time. This was so well researched, phrased and structured that I don't really know what to say except that it does exactly what it promises and it does it incredibly well. This is a concise and at times painful analysis of consent, sexualized violence, gendered roles and experiences, political events, popcultural media, historical developments and movements and most of all, a clever and well-crafted answer to many (anti-feminist) rhetorical claims about women's positions and experiences around sex and consent. The author stresses that she can only speak on behalf of a very specific experience which is why she regularly quotes writers that have added queer and/or BIPoC perspective to discussions on these topics and I appreciate that transparency and acknowledgement.
I'm already looking forward to Katherine Angel's future writing.
