| Tiivistelmä: | This article introduces a new theory of erotic capital as a fourth personal asset in addition to economic, cultural and social capital. Erotic capital has several distinct elements, one of which has been characterized as "emotional labour". Erotic capital is not only a major asset in mating and marriage markets, but can also be important in e.g. labour markets, the media and politics. Women generally have more erotic capital than men. Given the large imbalance between men and women in sexual interest over the life course, women are well placed to exploit their erotic capital. |
