"Verantwortungsvoll ejakulieren" ist der provokante Debattentext für alle, die keine Angst davor haben, patriarchal geprägte Tabus zu brechen. Gabrielle Blair knöpft sich in diesem New York Times-Bestseller den Mythos vor, dass Verhütung Frauensache sei. In 28 bestechenden Argumenten legt sie dar, warum sich Männer darum kümmern müssen – aus physiologischen ebenso wie aus Gerechtigkeitsgründen. Denn Männer können lebenslang 24/7 Kinder zeugen, während Frauen pro Zyklus nur einen Tag fruchtbar sind. Darüber hinaus können Frauen ihren Eisprung nicht verhindern, während Männer ihren Samen durchaus lenken können – und sei es in ein Kondom.

Capitalist ideology wants us to believe that there is an optimal way to live. "Making connections" means networking for work. Our emotional needs are to be fulfilled by a single romantic partner, and self-care equates to taking personal responsibility for our suffering. We must be productive and heteronormative; we must have babies and buy a house. But the kicker is most people cannot and do not want to achieve all or any of these life goals. Instead, we are left feeling atomized, exhausted, and disempowered. Radical Intimacy shows that it doesn't need to be this way.

What is 'woman' if not 'mother'? Anything she wants to be. Foregoing motherhood has traditionally marked a woman as 'other.' With no official place setting for her in our society, she has hovered on the sidelines: the quirky girl, the neurotic career obsessive, the 'eccentric' aunt. Instead of continuing to paint women without kids as sad, self-obsessed, or somehow dysfunctional, what if we saw them as boldly forging a new vision for a fully autonomous womankind? Or as journalist and thought leader Ruby Warrington asks, what if being a woman without kids were in fact its own kind of legacy?
