Att få matriarkatet att rocka är inte särskilt tacksamt, säger Liz i en av dessa berättelser från den kaliforniska underjorden. PAT CALIFIA är varken anständig eller måttfull. Vad är det för vits med en erotisk novell om ingen blir kåt av den? undrar hon. Åtta läderflator tar sig an lilla Roxanne, eller är det möjligen tvärtom? En kvinna kidnappas av tre poliser, en födelsedagspresent från flickvännen och finner ett intresse för det manliga könet som hon inte visste om. En annan upptäcker att klubbvampyren är en riktig vampyr. Ingen har läst något liknande. Det som skiljer PAT CALIFIA från andra i genren är att man tror henne. Hon är en urstyv iakttagare. Man känner lukten av inrökta klubbar, värmen från dansande kroppar och den obestämda lusten. Hon skruvar upp historierna utan att släppa på trvärdigheten Macho Sluts is a book that apparently needs a lot of introduction: 75 pages of it out of the 400 page book. It makes sense, though, because a lot of the appeal and importance of Macho Sluts comes from the reaction to it. It was originally published in the 80s, during the feminist sex wars. BDSM was seen as a patriarchal power display, and something lesbians just didn’t do. Macho Sluts inspired a lot of outrage, but it also just kept selling...

When it was first published in 1988, Pat Califia's Macho Sluts, a collection of S/M stories set in San Francisco's dyke bathhouses, sex parties, and S/M gay bars, shocked the lesbian community and caused an upheaval in the field of queer publishing. Nobody had ever written so frankly about the kinky potential of woman-to-woman sex (and nobody has ever done it any better). If any book is responsible for the formation of the modern lesbian leather community, this one is it. Despite its graceful language, imaginative scenarios, and abundant humour, the lesbian press trashed Macho Sluts, and it became a focal point for the infamous legal battles between Canada Customs and Little Sister's, the gay and lesbian bookstore in Vancouver. But readers loved it, and to this day Macho Sluts remains a vital and moving classic that still has the power to educate, radicalize, and expand our notions of the body's potential to provide us with pleasure, pain, and love. This new edition, part of Arsenal's Little Sister's Classics series resurrecting classics of LGBT literature, includes a new foreword by the author, and an introduction by Wendy Chapkis, a Professor of Sociology and Women & Gender Studies at the University of Southern Maine in Portland. There are also essays by Jim Deva, co-owner of Little Sister's, and Joseph Arvay, chief counsel for the bookstore during its trial against Canada Customs.
