Synopsis: Fucking Law is an urgent call for everyone, not just academics and researchers, to find inventive ways to question the ethics of sexuality. Since a sex life is full of so many diverse moments of joy and suffering, for each and everybody, the book attempts to bridge a gap between philosophical and non-philosophical questioning.
Central to the book is the reality that everyone can challenge the ethics and laws of sexuality and ask questions, even where they seem frightening, or worse, even when we are told not to - by institutions and lovers alike.
Non-philosophical and accessible, Fucking Law is risky, explicit and provocative as it bridges the gap between academic and every-day questioning of sexual encounters.

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟
My Review: This book is a little harder to review than I thought it was going to be. It deals with sex and the issues that surround it. This one went deep into the ethics and philosophy of sexuality. I will say that you could really tell that the author did a lot of extensive research on this title. In the end this book was a lot to handle and unload. And if its your cup of tea I would totally check it out!
Trigger Warnings: rape, detailed sex, sexual assault, abusive relationships.
