![]() ![]() ![]() Another chapter on her time as a sex worker becomes an overview of the structures that regulate the perception of prostitution while using it to maintain a status quo. One chapter about her rape when she was a teenager ends up being an analysis of how women are taught to think about rape. The structure of King Kong is a constant camera movement zooming out to a long shot so wide that exposes everything around the frame. As this first book, King Kong Theory mentions her rape, but in a social critical way. Here the book and film are at times translated as Rape Me, though a more direct translation is Fuck Me. Reading King Kong Theory without having read or seen Baise-moi, or having heard of Virginie Despentes before. ![]()
