- Abstract
- As many China scholars have observed and argued, contemporary China has witnessed a “sexual revolution” that enables an increasing number of expressions for individuals’ sexuality. This revolution, in my opinion, is still very much underway, which profoundly impacted the transactional sex scene. The commodification of sex for professional and “amateurs,” the decreased stigmatisation attached to it, and various rationalistic justifications articulated for it, are all manifestations of this sexual revolution. What implications does it have on Chinese people’s intimate life, their conceptualisations of desire and pleasure, their physical and mental health, and China’s law and regulations? It remains to be seen.
