In this book, Katherine Angel surveys medical and psychoanalytic understandings of female desire, from Freud to Kinsey to present-day science; MeToo-era debates over consent, assault, and feminism; and popular culture, TV, and film to challenge our assumptions about female desire.

In this demimonde, these dames entretenues exchanged sex, company, and sometimes even love for being "kept".
