- Abstract
"Dubcon: Fanfiction, Power, and Sexual Consent" by Milena Popova is a timely and accessible book that explores the relationship between power and sexual consent in erotic fan fiction. Popova uses case studies from specific fan fiction communities to examine how fan fiction engages with issues of sexual consent and whether it can be viewed as a form of cultural activism. The book covers topics such as the Omegaverse subgenre, arranged marriage AU tropes, and hockey RPF fan fiction, highlighting how these genres navigate power dynamics and consent. While the book may require some familiarity with fan fiction, it provides a nuanced and inclusive perspective on sexual consent and power dynamics in Western cultures.
