A review by tomwbrass
Sexuality: A Graphic Guide by Meg-John Barker

2.0

I appreciate I'm probably not the target audience for this book and its aimed at a younger audience BUT. I found it incredibly preachy and twisting itself around to maintain an "all sexualities are valid" perspective, which results in quite a few contradictions across the text. The haunted house visual metaphor is barely used because beyond a general "we're haunted by historical constructions of sexuality that serve to oppress us" vibe. I also think it doesn't make good use of what a graphic text can do because the format is just... sentences with pictures dotted around...

I also didn't like how the mouths were drawn.
