Ep.8: Uses of Absence: Sex Negativity
Tessel Vaeneboer, a PhD researcher bridging sexology and literary form, and Marija Cetinić, an assistant professor studying negativity and feminization, discuss sex negativity through feminist theory and psychoanalysis. They explore second-wave celibacy as political refusal, filmic abstraction in Melancholia, and how absence shapes politics, form, and critical thought.
