Recenzii
’Risky Pleasures? is a groundbreaking book, which foregrounds women's experience of Manchester's contemporary club spaces. Situated within a detailed discussion of risk, pleasure, drug use and sex, Hutton draws on interview material, highlighting the ways women negotiate tension and conflict. An exciting read which provides a new and relevant agenda for the discussion of women in club spaces.’ Sheila Whiteley, University of Salford, UK ’This ground-breaking book uses the voices of young women to address the everyday gendered negotiation of risk and pleasure in clubbing. It makes both an important contribution to the risk thesis literature and to setting an innovative feminist agenda for exploring sexual and drug-based behaviour in club cultures.’ Jenny Ryan, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK ’The book is important in drawing on the voices of young women in both mainstream and underground clubs, exploring their experience and attending to the value of "attitude" in respect of women's feelings of safety and security...It is by bringing gender differences to the fore that [the author] is able to show the oppositional potential in female clubbing practices.’ European Journal of Communication ’...makes a useful contribution to the academic enterprise of club studies.’ Cultural Sociology 'The book weaves a coherent picture of how drug use, sexuality and risk are part of the defining style of female club culture. We learn about 'new femininities' merging expressions of sexuality and femininity in the controlled spaces of club cultures...

Descriere
In this book Fiona Hutton provides a fascinating insight into women's experiences of clubbing. Revealing the important role of different spaces and atmospheres in how women participate in club scenes, she argues that drug taking and sexual pleasure are always contextualized within the environments created in different spaces, and that the risk and danger negotiated by women clubbers are counterbalanced by fun and pleasure - and ultimately empowerment.
