ABSTRACT
The desexualization of America struck social scientists in the aftermath of the Sixties. The great wave of free love and drugs had come and gone: what had been its determinants? Charles Winick, an American social scientist, wrote about Desexualization in American Life at the end of the Sixties. It may appear a gross exaggeration but a sexual history of our generation in America omitting erotophobia is like the history of Germany without Auschwitz or Italy without Fascism. Autobiographical disclosure may appear sentimental in scholarly analysis and doubdessly represents the inverse of Saint Foucault's own method sans the subject: the discourses of sexuality. Foucault resurrected these sex arrangements into their historiographies of surveillance, especially in the terms of its all-male relations, prison walls, and architecture of repression. The cultivation of Foucault is precisely what one would have expected from liberal American academicians.
