NUIT · Thematic path
The words we use in bed.
Consent, normality, expectations: we use these words without always giving them the same meaning. Two essays offer different ways to examine them.
Follow the works in whichever order you prefer.
01 · La Conversation des sexes
A word to examine
Manon Garcia’s philosophy of consent addresses power and the conditions of equal relationships. Choose it for a developed argument rather than a list of immediately applicable tips.

What we call normal
Martin Page questions the place given to a practice in representations of sexuality. The discussion moves towards norms: who passes them on, and what place do they take in our expectations? These essays address related questions with different objects.

When you say something is normal, do you mean a personal preference or an expectation you assume others share?
You can keep this to yourself or discuss it. NUIT does not collect an answer here.
This path draws on the works’ official presentations. Profiles link to the sources. These introductions are not reviews based on reading, listening to or watching the works in full.
