![]() My concern is whether the popularity of a text like 50 Shades of Grey reflects a more pressing psychological matter regarding sexuality. Yet, my speculation is of a different nature. ![]() One headline declared that “ 50 Shades of Grey Could Turn Moms Into Sex Kittens.” Many have suggested that the book could be “spicing things up” in the bedrooms of its readers. Others say the novel’s success is a good sign for feminism, openly proclaiming that women have a natural interest in sex. Some have suggested that the book’s focus on a BDSM relationship appeals to a woman’s desire to be dominated. What I will note, however, is that the sheer success of this erotica novel has raised some notable questions about what interests women when it comes to sex. Because of that, I wouldn’t pretend to know what either the storyline or the writing style says about female sexuality. I admit, I have not read 50 Shades of Grey.
