This book investigates what women enjoy about consuming, and in
some cases producing, gay male erotic media-from slashfic, to
pornographic texts, to visual pornography-and how this sits within
their consumption of erotica and pornography more generally. In
addition, it will examine how women's use of gay male erotic media
fits in with their perceptions of gender and sexuality. By drawing
on a piece of wide-scale mixed methods research that examines these
motivations, an original and important volume is presented that
serves to explore and contribute to this under-researched area.
This book provides an authoritative overview of the contemporary
phenomenon widely labelled as 'acid attacks'. Although once thought
of as a predominantly 'gendered crime', acid and other corrosive
substances have been used in a range of violence crimes. This book
explores the historical use of corrosives in crime, legal
definitions of such attacks, the contexts in which corrosives are
used, victim characteristics, offender motivations for carrying and
decanting corrosives, and preventative strategies. Data is drawn
from the international literature and the analysis of primary data
collected in the UK (which is thought to have one of the highest
rates of acid attacks in the world) from interviews with over 20
convicted offenders and from police case files relating to over
1,000 crimes involving corrosive substances. This book adds
significantly to the international literature on weapons carrying
and use, which to date has predominantly focused around the
possession and use of guns and knives.
