The Long Sexual Revolution: The Police and the New Gay Man

Abstract

The sexual revolution in the 1960s and 1970s should be seen in the broader perspective of a ‘long sexual revolution’ of the 20th century. Taking the Foucauldian notion of the sexual apparatus,1 with discipline and emancipation being two sides of the same coin, I argue that we should not disregard either. Instead we should acknowledge the increased possibilities for sex for its own sake, as well as critically analyse the subjectifications attached to the structures, or rather networks, of sexual self-management.
