I admit, I have not read 50 Shades of Grey. Because of that, I wouldn’t pretend to know what either the storyline or the writing style says about female sexuality. What I will note, however, is that the sheer success of this erotica novel has raised some notable questions about what interests women when it comes to sex. Some have suggested that the book’s focus on a BDSM relationship appeals to a woman’s desire to be dominated. Others say the novel’s success is a good sign for feminism, openly proclaiming that women have a natural interest in sex. Many have suggested that the book could be “spicing things up” in the bedrooms of its readers. One CafeMom.com headline declared that “50 Shades of Grey Could Turn Moms Into Sex Kittens.”
