Erotic Performance and Spectatorship

New Frontiers in Erotic Dance

Beschreibung

This book presents a unique investigation into the experiences of women and men erotic dancers who dance for women customers. This book offers a fresh theoretical perspective, combining queer theory with feminist insights to trouble the assumption that only women perform erotic dance, and only men watch. Pilcher develops a more complex account of people's experiences in erotic dance venues, highlighting the tensions around exercising agency in commercial sexual encounters.
