性革命主導了我們對六〇年代的想像,半個世紀過去,我們對性革命的理解卻大多仍停留在「性、藥與搖滾樂」。但六〇年代的性革命不只有男人,也有女人;六〇年代的性革命也不只是浪漫的反叛神話,更是複雜的物質歷史。披頭四的女粉絲為何與性革命有關?女性雜誌、大眾小說與流行電影如何參與性革命的形塑與建構?從金賽、麥斯特與強森到《海特性學報告》,性學的崛起如何重新定義性與性慾,推動性革命的誕生?從安寇特的〈陰道高潮迷思〉到法拉黛的《我的秘密花園》,女人如何解構醫學權威,重奪女性情慾?海倫葛莉布朗 如何透過一本《慾望單身女子》,一本《柯夢波丹》,帶起六〇年代的單身女子浪潮?女性主義與性革命之間交織著怎樣的愛恨情仇?性革命又如何面臨一波又一波的反挫?在這場演講中,我們將以各式各樣的歷史檔案,試圖重構六〇年代性革命場景,細膩檢視性革命中衝突矛盾的意識形態,也重新召喚性革命中往往不被提及的女性身影。

Speaker: Paris Shih

The event will be conducted in Chinese.

The sexual revolution shapes our cultural imagination of the 60s. While much has been written about the history, its narrative is predominantly masculine and romantic. It is time for us to revisit the roles of women and popular cultures in the history of sexual revolution.  Why were female fans of the Beatles related to the sexual revolution? How did women’s magazines, popular fiction and popular cinema participate in the construction of the sexual revolution?  How did sexological studies from Kinsey’s, Masters and Johnson’s to The Hite Report redefine sex and sexuality?  How did women like Anne Koedt and Nancy Friday deconstruct medical authorities and reclaim female sexuality? What were the ideological contradictions between feminist movement and the sexual revolution? Why were there backlashes against the sexual revolution? This current talk attempts to answer these questions by restoring conflicting historical documents and resituating women in the history of sexual revolution.
