Dit zeer ambitieuze werk bestaat uit een veertigtal artikelen die allemaal samen een overzicht willen bieden van vijfentwintig jaar feministische discussie over vrouwen en seksualiteit. Het boek is samengesteld rond vier hoofdthema's: 1) essentialisme versus sociale constructie. 2) constructie en deconstructie van seksuele categorieën. 3) de relatie tussen seksualiteit, macht en plezier. 4) commerciële seks. De samenstellers van dit werk hebben de grootste zorg besteed aan de representativiteit van de gekozen artikelen. Zowel wat behandelde onderwerpen, keuze van auteurs, strekkingen als tijdvak betreft, is deze reader een voorbeeld van een geslaagde evenwichtsoefening. De diverse artikelen worden omkaderd door een inleidend overzicht van de samenstellers, dat de verschillende denkrichtingen binnen de feministische beweging in een historische en politieke context plaatst.

This book offers a comparative study of the lives of young adult women and their mothers in Hong Kong and Britain. Set against the backdrop of debates regarding the consequences of late modern social change for family and intimate life, the authors consider the challenges of exploring these issues across differing cultures. The book focuses on a range of topics including: mother-daughter relationships; romantic, sexual and marital relationship trajectories; and the imagined futures of daughters. Throughout, it is argued that differences between Hong Kong and Britain are not attributable merely to local culture and tradition, but are the consequence of wider social, economic and political conditions through which cultural continuity and change are mediated. Women Doing Intimacy will be of interest to students and scholars of family life and gender studies.
