This study of pornographic magazine photographs--softcore, hardcore, transsexual/transvestite--analyzes the visual code of these images. It engages questions about masculinity and masculine sexuality such as Is there a necessary relation between difference and phallic desire? Can the masculine subject imagine otherness? Is there a will-to-asceticism in this (masculine) sexual surrender to indifferentiation?
