The liberal discourse around sexuality works in essentially the same way – not so much wrong as insufficient. The logic of both capital and desire supposedly centers on mutually beneficial exchanges between consenting independent adults with full disclosure of relevant communication. But this apparently liberated hedonism hides a far more puritanical, masochistic regime in which want is a solitary pursuit.
