At a time when women are more vocal than ever about our lives, there's one last taboo. We need to talk about porn.
When we think about porn today, we still mostly think about men. Men as the producers and the consumers. Women as the product. Most women aren't talking to each other about what they do and don't do with porn - not really. And when we do talk about it, we are divided into unhelpful binaries: for or against? Liberation or coercion? Too sexual or not sexual enough? But in a world where porn sites get more traffic than Netflix, Amazon plus Twitter combined, and one of the leading sites claims a third of its users are women, isn't it time to change that?
In this book, interviews with 100 women result in an extraordinary and powerful conversation on pornography. How they first encountered it. How they consume it. How it has affected their sex lives. What they like and what they don't. And what it means for their relationships.
Eye-opening, provocative and deeply moving, this book navigates the polarised public debates, to open an intimate window into porn and the sexual lives of women today.

Opinie krytyków
Besides being an audiobook, which can be at some point educational and entertaining, Fiona failed to make a point. She tried to cover many aspects on that topic without nailing anything down. Most of the couples mentioned in the book seem to have (had) much deeper issues than the ones described here, and the consumption could merly be seen as a symptom, rather than something that needs to be solved.
When it comes to violence, which, depending on the perspective, could be caused by the consumption of the mentioned material, it gets really wrong. At that point it feels like blaming the hammer for hurting someone instead of being used to hammer a nail into the wall.
The chapter on the Metaverse could have been omitted completely, and the author fairly mentioned that she is probably not the best person to speak about that topic.
In summary, it was a mixed bag, and I would only recommend to listen to it, if you don't have any expectations.
