Sexuality Beyond Consent: Risk, Race, Traumatophilia New York University Press, Sexual Cultures Series Click here to purchase. Read Sexuality Beyond Consent Risk, Race, Traumatophilia by Avgi Saketopoulou available from Rakuten Kobo. Avgi Saketopoulou presents us with an alternative: subjects that are always opaque to ourselves and with trauma that is never inert or erased, for whom experiences of overwhelm can open ourselves up to confrontations with that opaqueness in us, and with them strange new possibilities. In the vein of Oliver Davis and Tim Dean’s “Hatred of Sex” that we covered last season, “Sexuality Beyond Consent” speaks to a society that has become obsessed and terrified of trauma, rational subjects looking both to shield ourselves from any possible experiences that could create it and to heal and eliminate any of it that has already gotten inside us. We are thrilled to present our first episode of a series working through Avgi Saketopoulou’s brilliant “Sexuality Beyond Consent: Risk, Race, Traumatophilia”-a text so meaty that this episode does not make it past its introduction.
