Caitlin Kunkel, Brooke Preston, Fiona Taylor and Carrie Wittmer are satirists and comedy writers whose work has been featured in The New Yorker and McSweeney's. They believe that women of the #TimesUp and #MeToo generation need a new type of erotica to get them all hot and bothered so they set about writing a wickedly funny satirical book that "turns the tables on clichéd erotica". In New Erotica for Feminists, plumbers are just plumbers. A man putting the recycling out is a major turn-on, as is getting 14 solid hours of uninterrupted sleep. It's a place where all your feminist fantasies come true.

I walk into my office building, and a sharply dressed man walks in behind me. Feeling his eyes on me, I press the lift button. It lights up.
