Up until a few years ago, she still envisioned her sexual experience \"eventually reaching a terminus, like a monorail gliding to a stop at Epcot Center.\" Like many people, she imagined herself disembarking, finding herself face-to-face with another human being, \"and there we would remain in our permanent station in life: the future.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut, as many of us have found, things are more complicated than that. Love is rare and frequently unreciprocated. Sexual experience doesn't necessarily lead to a future of traditional monogamy--and why should it? Have we given up too quickly on the alternatives? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eFuture Sex\u003c\/i\u003e, Witt explores Internet dating, Internet pornography, polyamory, and avant-garde sexual subcultures as sites of possibility. She observes these scenes from within, capturing them in all their strangeness, ridiculousness, and beauty. The result is an open-minded, honest account of the contemporary pursuit of connection and pleasure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Farrar, Strauss \u0026amp; Giroux-3pl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780374537272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Emily Witt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42761749889205,"sku":"9780374537272","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_a6f76358-9bd3-4b9f-b5d3-c96a9b866c75.jpg?v=1678202940","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/future-sex-9780374537272","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
