	QUEERING ECOLOGICAL FEMINISM
		As queer theorists have shown, the larger problem is the erotophobia of Western Culture, a fear of the erotic so strong that only one form of sexuality is overtly allowed; only in one position; and only in the context of certain legal, religious and social sanctions.
		For both the charge that queers are "unnatural" and that women, by virtue of their association with nature, are dangerously carnal converge to legitimate and reinforce heterosexual social institutions and practices insofar as both are alleged to stand in need of the external control afforded through the strict moral (and religious) proscription of sexual impulses.
		Underwritten through the valuation of women as mothers whose "place" is in the home, itself eroticized in terms of its guarantee of sexual availability and de-eroticized via the home's traditional association with procreative duty and family, the contradictory coding of women as producers supports forms of unpaid domestic labor fully concordant with heteropatriarchal ideology.

		But despite the prevalence of sex in the popular culture, attorney and erotic arts activist Ince argues that "erotophobia," the powerful and irrational fear of our own sexuality, is prevalent, contagious and continuing to shape American attitudes towards human sexuality.
		The bulk of the book explores the three distinct forces that fuel erotophobia: "antisexualism," the irrational negative response to harmless sexual expression; "nasty sex," which includes rape and violent pornography; and "rigidity," the inability to enjoy "playful and spontaneous" sex.
		Ultimately, however, many of his arguments about the unhealthy persistence of erotophobia feel redundant; anyone interested in the causes and effects of sexual repression will already be well versed in many of them.
