The Slut's Demise
"The Slut's Demise" is a journalistic book that delves into the reporting on the claim that today's youth are having less sex. Is it really true? Starting with the question of what happened to Samantha Jones from Sex and the City and sexual freedom at the beginning of the 2000s, Emil Åkerö investigates assertions, statistics, and facts surrounding what sex is and whether we truly are in a sexual downturn or not. It becomes a journey through perceptions of today's youth, societal development, and climate, but also the intimate and personal aspects, addressing questions about what sex really is and whether our society needs to broaden its understanding of what sex is and can be, as well as how consent is practiced. It also explores sex as a hobby, practice, and self-care, its political importance, and what happens when the private becomes depoliticized.
