Clarendon Book Club: The Right to Sex
For the second meeting of MT, we will discuss a very different book, ’The Right to Sex’ by Amia Srinivasan (of All Souls College, Oxford). The book is a collection of six essays on sexual ethics, in the broadest sense, covering sexual assault and workplace harassment, pornography, teacher-student affairs, the sexual ‘marketplace’, and the negative consequences of the justice system in this area. The author draws on radical feminism, philosophy and other academic disciplines to infer the meaning of sex in today’s world. We hope that this session of the book club will spark a healthy and passionate discussion on a topic on which everyone will surely have an opinion.
