Female Chauvinist Pigs are women who sexually only objectify other women and themselves. Some women gain empowerment by disciplining oneself from women who are “girly girls”, while simultaneously objectifying such women like going to strip clubs and reading Playboy. Others gain empowerment by objectifying themselves through sexual appeal.

By attempting to control and normalize sexual relationships and sexual tension, the Republic of Gilead made all types relationships and the sexual tension all the more strange.

At first, anything sexual and not modest was looked down upon. Regarding the book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Female, “It is impossible to estimate the damage this book will do in the already deteriorating minds of America.” However, the days of modest teens and young adults were clearly gone. Men and women alike were no longer afraid to experiment with one another—it was an age of so called love and lust, and nothing, as well as nobody, was off limits. As sex-symbols such as Marilyn Monroe began to emerge during the 1950’s, magazines with sexual images began to emerge as well. Playboy magazine first appeared in this time period, and seemed to bring together sex with everyday life.
People do not like/believe what she writes about because it is different (people are afraid of different) and because faith has taught them not to. Bordo writes about how advertising is now tailoring to male sexiness or homosexuality. In her first section she is going for the “shock factor”, to draw in readers and make them interested.

His daughters were totally in tune with it, but his son wanted no parts of it and Kinsey did not care. I did like that Kinsey brought couples out of their comfort zone; most of the couples he taught knew nothing about sex and it was like taboo them. Most of them did not know there were other positions in which to have sex. Also, Kinsey had his little pecker fixed and he started to enjoy sex in other positions, I am guessing that it was too little for any other positions. I feel the main message in the movie is that sex is something to enjoy, Kinsey believes that “people should explore all sexual even of the opposite sex, and oral sex.
However I believe that beneath this layer of “properness” there is the still the raw sexuality of our nature. If you look at romance novels you will find that women read about and find pleasure in some of the most heinous fantasies. Men on the other hand watch porn; both are manifestations of real, repressed desire. Additionally you have internet dating, face-booking, tweeting and other such impersonal ways of meeting a mate. It’s increasingly hard for people to display their true nature without an interface, or a gimmick because instances where one does can put that person at risk socially.
