In Intercourse (1987) feminist writer Andrea Dworkin (1946–2005) explores the inherent power dynamics of heterosexual sex within a patriarchal system. Drawing on examples from fictional and historical figures, Dworkin illustrates the ways these themes of inequality are so embedded into culture that we treat them as innate and not as constructs.
