'Rough Sex' and the Criminal Law - Global Perspectives (Hardcover)

'Rough sex' has been at the forefront of criminal law in recent
years following several high-profile murders of women killed during
alleged consensual sex 'gone wrong', leading to widespread calls
for reform to prevent the use of what has been termed the 'rough
sex defence.' Situated in a global context in which violence
against women is one of the leading preventable contributors to
death and illness for women aged 18-44 worldwide, this timely
collection examines the rough sex defence and responds to some of
the wider debates around sex and the law. Drawing on a range of
empirical and theoretical standpoints, chapters delve into a range
of topics including the female experience of 'unwanted' slapping,
choking and spitting during sex, the BDSM community, the impacts of
pornography, the normalization and sexualization of violence
against women, early depictions of BDSM involving the eroticization
of non-consensual relations, problematic perceptions of BDSM as
inherently violent, and more. Bows and Herring expertly collate a
wide-reaching mix of perspectives to contribute to a powerful
feminist investigation of this critical issue. It is a compelling
read for scholars interested in the intersection of sex, the law,
and the criminal justice system.
