If female intimacy has always been determined by the patriarchy's desires, then the female and feminised body are the battleground through which this control has been wrested. The narratives constructed around these bodies as sexual objects and maternal vessels and almost nothing in between - map directly onto the structuring principles of the patriarchy: the economic and social disempowerment of marginalised genders, the proliferation of the nuclear family, and and the provision of free domestic labour.
