A review by sprouter
The Tragedy of Heterosexuality by Jane Ward

4.5

  • Love this type of academic/layperson hybrid reading
  • Liked her ethnographies of those dating coach things and analysis of not just feminist texts but the self help for straights throughout the decades 
  • Lots of fair criticism of the fact that her analysis still trended to feel binaristic (eg queer v straight)
  • I do wonder who exactly is the audience for this to hit the sweet spot
