"This book will challenge you to think not only about the debates on pornography, but also about the very boundaries of the public, the private, the sexual, and the normal. It provides a substantive challenge to all we take for granted." - Beverley Skeggs, Professor of Sociology, Goldsmiths College, UK

"This original and highly readable book offers a fascinating insight into young people's relationships with sexually explicit media. Avoiding clichés about the 'pornification' of culture, Monique Mulholland makes a clear and convincing argument about shifts in the way young people understand sex and sexiness, and how their ideas of private and public are changing." - Feona Attwood, Professor, Cultural Studies, Communication & Media, Middlesex University, UK
