"Is there no difference between 'telling people to change their desires' and asking ourselves what we want, why we want it, and what it is we want to want? Must the transformation of desire be a disciplinary project (willfully altering our desires in line with our politics) or can it be an emancipatory one (setting our desires free from politics)?"

"The question posed by radical self-love movements is not whether there is a right to sex (there isn't), but whether there is a duty to transfigure, as best we can, our desires."
