This volume speaks back to these problematic frames, through a rich offering of diverse voices from multiple genres of writing, which explore the complexity of sexual life in eras of disease. --Jeffrey McCune author of Sexual Discretion: Black Masculinity and the Polities of Passing (10/12/2022 12:00:00 AM) The arrival of PrEP and biomedical prevention helped rescue a public centering of gay men's desire, pleasure and sex that was becoming marginalized in the fight for same sex marriage. By returning to the all-but-abandoned anthology as a necessary strategy of critical queer community dialogue, A Pill for Promiscuity: Gay Sex in the Age of Pharmaceuticals offers a compelling collection of voices on the complicated cultural and political dynamics of sex in the era of PrEP. --Kenyon Farrow Managing Director of Advocacy & Organizing for PrEP4All (10/12/2022 12:00:00 AM) Author InformationANDREW SPIELDENNER is executive director of MPact: Global Action for Gay Rights and associate professor of communication at California State University San Marcos.
