[edit] STRIPTEASE CULTURE
Striptease Culture explores this 'sexualisation' of contemporary life, considering the impact on mass culture and relating it to wider changes in post-war society.
Striptease Culture explores the 'sexualisation' of contemporary life, relating it to wider changes in the sexual politics of post-war societies. Key issues discussed include: - the development of pornography, following its movement from elite to mass culture and examining the culture of confession, as seen in day-time talk shows and reality TV, the contemporary fascination with 'porno chic' - the use of sexuality in contemporary art, and the 'striptease' of artist like Jeff Koons, Madonna, Gilbert & George and Natasha Merritt who have used their own naked bodies in their work - the representation of sex and gender roles in a variety of media. Moving from backlash elements in straight male culture and changing images of women to the representation of gays in contemporary film and television shows such as Ellen and Queer as Folk, McNair argues that the changing structure of representation of sex and gender mark significant progress in the sexual politics of advanced capitalist societies.
