LANGUAGE AND SEXUALITY
How are sexuality and erotic desire expressed in language? Do gay men
and lesbians have a language of their own? Does ‘no’ always mean no?
Is sexual desire beyond words? This lively and accessible textbook
looks at how we talk about sex and why we talk about it the way
we do.
Drawing on a wide range of examples, from personal ads to phone
sex, from sadomasochistic scenes to sexual assault trials, the book pro-
vides a clear introduction to the relationship between language and
sexuality. Using a broad definition of ‘sexuality’, the book encompasses
not only issues surrounding sexual orientation and identity – for in-
stance whether gay men and lesbians use language differently from
straight people – but also questions about the discursive construction
of sexuality and the verbal expression of erotic desire.
Cameron and Kulick contextualize their findings within current
research in linguistics, anthropology and psychology, and bring to-
gether relevant theoretical debates on sexuality, gender, identity, desire,
meaning and power.
Topical and entertaining, this much-needed textbook will be wel-
comed by students and researchers in sociolinguistics, linguistic an-
thropology and gender/sexuality studies, as well as anyone interested
in the relationship between language and sex.
