Abstract
Since Michelle Fine’s (1988) paper on the ‘missing discourse of desire’ in sexuality education, researchers have been investigating where and how women talk about their desire. Online weblogs have become a popular forum for the discussion of sexuality, particularly among women, and have been identified as one potential ‘safe space’ for the discussion of sexual desire. In this article, I use thematic analysis to explore how women write about their sexual desire in online weblogs. In this brief report, I present excerpts from one of the identified themes: women’s desire as active and embodied. The findings are considered in terms of masculine and feminine sexualities and postfeminism.
