Just Sex: Students Rewrite the Rules on Sex, Violence, Equality and Activism

Since the early 1980s, a student movement has emerged from the belief that sexual violence is neither inherent not inevitable. Just Sex chronicles the move to bring an end to all forms of sexual violence and to mould a new sexual paradigm where explicitly consensual sex and sexual autonomy are the norm. Based on ten years of collaborative research and national organizing, Gold and Villari have compiled the writings of leading student activists and young scholars wrestling with complex issues of power inequities, free speech and societal constructions of gender and sexuality in accessible and mainstream dialogues. The authors also examine the generationally specific style of student activism which emphasizes peer education and institutional collaboration. Just Sex - the first ever gathering of primary documents including university policies, personal testimonies, position papers and scholarly essays - offers a glimpse of the working papers of a student movement which has altered the sexual landscape of our campuses and communities forever.
