DESCRIPTION:Seminar talk by Andrea García-Santesmases (Universidad Nacional
  de Educación a Distancia\, Spain)\n\nTowards a New Sexual Contract: Femin
 ist Reflections on the Industry of Female Desire in Spain\n	Thursday\, Octo
 ber 23\, 11:30-1:00\n	IGSF Seminar Room\n\nAbstract: This talk offers a cri
 tical analysis of the female desire industry and its transformation in con
 texts where women assume the role of consumers. It examines the processes 
 of sanitization\, domestication\, and elitization within this industry\, a
 s well as female imaginaries and experiences of sexuality\, transgression\
 , and consumption. The analysis focuses on the fantasies sustained by and 
 for male providers\, who present themselves through archetypes such as the
  gallant\, the dominant\, and the therapist\, thereby embodying different 
 forms of masculinity in the provision of heterosexual services. Particular
  attention is given to heteronormativity and the performative staging of h
 eterosexuality activated by payment\, which is interpreted as an expressio
 n of the neoliberalization of intimate life and the ascendancy of postfemi
 nist discourse. Although the empirical phenomenon under study may be consi
 dered residual\, it opens a broader reflection on contemporary heterosexua
 l relations and the socio-political tensions underpinning them.\n
