Contemporary, affective, and beautifully written. Bad Sex recenters the political, personal, and wider significance of queer theory in popular culture during uncertain times. The intersectional and queer approach sets Bad Sex as a pivotal frame to examine popular culture, nostalgia, intimacy, representations on television, and what future possibilities could look like.

Bad Sex explores how sex and sexuality are depicted on screen in shows from Fleabag to Euphoria. It charts the movement away from previous depictions of sex as either liberating or traumatizing, attending to the complex territory in between. The book makes a vital contribution to media and cultural studies.
