This book looks at how gendered female bodies and non-phallic bodies function, are rhetoricized as functioning, are made to function, or are functioned upon in two extremized spaces?the private and the public. Using rape and menstruation as the marker of the invisible /private and the female body and non-phallic bodies on the street as the marker of the visible/public, it shows how these binaries often overlap in the global capital. The author discusses how the raped body constantly becomes visible in the media, the cycle of the bodily fluid is tabooed and consumerized in the market, and the street constantly marginalizes, victimizes, erases, hypersexualizes, and hyper-visibilizes the female body as valued/devalued capital, and homophobic-transphobic culture alienates the body which is non-heterosexual and non-heteronormative.
