Description
Porn Chic explores the cultural shift in construction of femininity and masculinity at the turn of the millennium, as mainstreaming of pornographic imagery into fashion and popular culture became increasingly prevalent. This book examines expressions and meanings of "raunch chic" through various examples from film, media, marketing campaigns, and art exhibits.
Through a cultural and feminist lens, Annette Lynch challenges readers to question the sexual agency of individuals represented in these examples, such as those depicted in fashion inspired by celebrity culture or portrayed in online profiles. The book also explores the raunchy "bad boys" who profit from sharing their sexual exploits through various media channels.
Featuring artwork that critiques the permeable border between pornography and mainstream culture, this book offers a thought-provoking analysis of modern society's relationship with explicitness. With its engaging approach to popular culture, fashion, and gender studies, Porn Chic is an insightful read for anyone interested in these subjects.
