A six-chapter novella with first-person narrative and a loosely autobiographical tendency, 'The Politics of Sexuality', originally dating from 1984, explores the concept of sexual politics, or the notion that every mode of politics has a sexual corollary. Although such an idea was by no means new to John O'Loughlin's work at the time, it hadn't been explored to anything like the same extent by him before, and it is a theme to which he has since returned quite frequently, always seeking to logically or structurally improve upon his initial theories, which he has learnt, through bitter experience, to regard as more of a springboard to better things than a definitive statement, even if such a springboard is not, as in this case, without considerable literary merit.
