I don't think I follow the argument here.

Regardless, I do believe that when people will try to explain some of the weird ways in which America is haunted by sex, e.g. why there is collective pressure to construe some manifestations or forms of sexuality as threatening at certain points in time, the Foucault of The Will to Know (1976) will come in very handy, among many other texts and thinkers of course.
