"An important, definitive book! Insightfully analyzing the 'body guy' genre, the authors persuasively demonstrate the need for and value of a radical reassessment of the discourses previously used to talk about male and female sexual power and pleasure and their representation in film.<br />"

- Robert Eberwein, author of Armed Forces

"Peter Lehman and Susan Hunt have forcefully and brilliantly focused on a genre of film that desperately needed to be yanked out of the shadows into light.<br /><br />"

- Zalman King, filmmaker

"Lehman and Hunt brilliantly track the legacy of Lady Chatterley's fondness for the 'body guy' at the expense of the intellectual male in images of (improbable) penile penetration on film. In arguing that non-genital sexualities (and brains) offer better models than violent body masculinities, they productively challenge the anti-intellectualism of much visual culture today."

- E. Ann Kaplan, author of Trauma Culture
