About
Nineteenth-century America saw numerous campaigns against masturbation, which was said to cause illness, insanity and even death. 'Riotous Flesh' explores women's leadership of those movements, with a specific focus on their rhetorical, social and political effects, showing how a desire to transform the politics of sex created unexpected alliances between groups that otherwise had very different goals.
