In Profit and Pleasure , Rosemary Hennessy develops a new understanding of sexual identities as they are linked to lived material realities, capitalism in particular. She points out that sexual identities have always been linked to gender, race, and nationality but these 'identities' themselves are inevitably linked to the structures of capitalism. Hennessy argues that as our world, and the United States in particular, changes, becoming more transnational and global in scope, sexual identities are also changing with it. From this exploration, she further examines the ways that these new identities have led to new forms of commodification of identity as well as the role of sexuality in achieving collective agency for social transformation.

讀瞭一個chapter, 是Queer Visibility In Commodity Culture這個章節。這章的論述,一句話概括,就是關注被“看不到”的others。在發錶的時間點,在美國的context下,Hennessy提齣瞭關於queer/homosexual class-specific visibility和對others的消耗的問題。作者主張,不僅僅關注“what to see”, 可以看到的圖像和符號,更要關注“how to see”, 我們是怎樣能夠看到一些圖像和符號的,是不是有對他者的消耗。然而,存在一個邏輯問題是,others的被剝削,更關於特定行業的勞動分工和全球化的資本轉移,和commodity所represent的subject,關聯不大。
