ABSTRACT
Queen, who believes that sex is “sacred and healing”, is tireless in her efforts to promote a sex-positive climate that would begin to undo the ravages wrought by what she characterizes as our sex-negative culture. In fighting this good fight, she also contributes important concepts and terminology to the sex debates. Having discovered early in her life that “sexual honesty” is crucial to happiness, Queen never looked back. Queen respects both nature and culture, sees mental and physical differences as a source of pleasure and fascination, and provides astute analyses of the politics of sex and the joys of transgression. Queen is serious about promoting a sex-positive culture, and her writing has a strong utopian undertone, a vision of a sexually open and pleasure-loving society in which people won’t have to pay for the sex they want and need.
