Omschrijving

**AS HEARD ON BBC RADIO 4'S WOMEN'S HOUR**

Rough is a revolutionary non-fiction work exploring the narratives of sexual violence that we don't talk about.

A bad sexual experience.

A grey area.

Not rape but... A violation .

These are the terms we use to describe the experiences we don't have words for. The way we talk about topics such as sex, consent, assault aren't fit for purpose.

Through powerful testimony from 50 women and non-binary people, this book shines a light on the sexual violence that takes place in our bedrooms and beyond, sometimes at the hands of people we know, trust, or even love. Rough investigates violations such as 'stealthing, ' non-consensual choking, and non-consensual rough sex acts that our culture is only starting to recognise as sexual violence.

The book explores the ways in which systems of oppression manifest in our sexual culture - from racist microaggressions, to fatphobic acts of aggression, and ableist dehumanising behaviour. An intersectional, sex-positive, kink-positive work, the book also examines how white supremacy, transphobia, biphobia, homophobia, and misogyny are driving forces behind sexual violence.

Rough is an urgent, timely call for change to the systems that oppress us all.

'An incredible investigation into a frighteningly common part of our sexual experience, ' Dr Fern Riddell

'Rough speaks to how many women often feel after sexual encounters ...This book is excellent and demonstrates just how valid those feelings are, ' Adele Walton, founder of Humanitarian Hotgirl
