In 'Women on Top', Nancy Friday explores women's sexual fantasies, based on letters and personal interviews. This book analyzes how female erotic lives have evolved in recent decades, breaking taboos and fostering an open conversation about female sexuality. The author examines whether the fantasies of women in the 90s are more liberated and experimental than those of the 70s, highlighting a greater freedom from guilt in explicit sexual fantasies among younger women.
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 Her writings argue that women have often been reared under an ideal of womanhood, which was outdated and restrictive, and largely unrepresentative of many women's true inner lives, and that openness about women's hidden lives could help free women to truly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.
