Foucault's summary of the dominant story"about sex and sexuality in the modern west Sexuality was carefully confined it moved into the home. the conjugal family took custody of it and absorbed it into the serious function of reproduction On the subject of sex, silence became the rule. the legitimate [meaning married and procreative couple laid down the lay. the couple imposed itself as model enforced the norm, safeguarded the truth and reserved the right to speak while retaining the principle of secrecy a single locus of sexuality was acknowledged in social space as well as at the heart of every household but it was a utilitarian and fertile one the parents bedroom"(3)
Foucault’s summary of the dominant “story” about sex and sexuality in the Modern West • “Sexuality was carefully confined; it moved into the home. The conjugal family took custody of it and absorbed it into the serious function of reproduction. On the subject of sex, silence became the rule. The legitimate [meaning married] and procreative couple laid down the lay. The couple imposed itself as model, enforced the norm, safeguarded the truth, and reserved the right to speak while retaining the principle of secrecy. A single locus of sexuality was acknowledged in social space as well as at the heart of every household, but it was a utilitarian and fertile one: the parent’s bedroom” (3)
Foucault's stated objective in questioning and reformulating the dominant"story"about sex and sexuality in the modern West Briefly my aim is to examine the case of a society which has been loudly castigating itself for its hypocrisy for more than a century, which speaks verbosely of its own silence, takes great pains to relate in detail the things it does not say denounces the powers it exercises, and promises to liberate itself from the very laws that have made it function. [. the question would like to pose is not Why are we repressed? but ather, Why do we say, with so much passion and so much resentment against our most recent past, against our present, and against ourselves, that we are repressed"( 8)
