Year: 2019
Type: preprint
Abstract: The works of women's studies on sexuality generally focuses on sexual harassment or workplace romance to the exclusion of strategic forms of erotic capital. We consider women's strategic sexual performances as a form of social influence and address the positive and negative consequences that may follow. This review highlights the occurrence and complexities of erotic capital in Venice Min's career and discusses the important implications of use their erotic capital to influence others or gain desired ends. It gained that Venice Min not only use her erotic capital, but also cultural and social capital to improving her performances as a great entertainer. In so doing, the findings highlight a need for rethinking traditional conceptualizations of empowerment whereby resistance equals empowering and reproduction equals disempowering, and initiates a new direction for feminist scholarship in this regard.
