I am currently working on turning my doctoral research into a book, provisionally entitled Responsible Pleasures: Reframing the Sexual Subject in Seventies Britain. I am also preparing an article on the sexual politics of Alex Comfort’s manual The Joy of Sex and another on the “zoological turn” in postwar popular sexology. A chapter on the changing face of the male reproductive subject, the “Durex man”, is due for publication soon.
I have also begun preliminary research for my next project, a history of pornography in postwar Britain, and in particular the ever-shifting debate about its effects on sexual wellbeing.
