The sexual revolution of the 1960's and 1970's is generally
considered a time when the women's movement made great strides.
In this provocative book, Sheila Jeffreys argues that this much
heralded sexual freedom did not constitute any real gain for
women but continued the tradition of their oppression. At the
root of sexual liberation, Jeffreys finds an increasing
eroticization of power differences within the heterosexual,
lesbian, and gay communities.
