«Women on Top» is Nancy Friday's essay on female sexual fantasies, published by Arrow in paperback (544 pages, in English).
Drawing on interviews and letters, Nancy Friday examines how feminism and sexual freedom have transformed women's erotic fantasies. The book brings together explicit and varied testimonies, from furious or lustful accounts to tender and dark ones, challenging social taboos and the image of the compliant woman.
This edition was published in 1993. The work continues Nancy Friday's research begun in My Secret Garden and Forbidden Flowers.
For readers interested in female sexuality, feminism, and erotic non-fiction literature.
Nancy Colbert Friday was an American author who wrote on the topics of female sexuality and liberation. Her writings argue that women have often been reared under an ideal of womanhood, which was outdated and restrictive, and largely unrepresentative of many women's true inner lives, and that openness about women's hidden lives could help free women to truly feel able to enjoy being themselves. She asserts that this is not due to deliberate malice, but due to social expectation, and that for women's and men's benefit alike it is healthier that both be able to be equally open, participatory and free to be accepted for who and what they are.
