![]() Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. ![]() ![]() Definitely an exploration of sex. From what can be gleaned from her comments throughout the book, the author grew up in Evangelical Christianity and purity culture and now identifies as a queer woman. She has considered a lot of history and modern scientific research and explores a good number of the domains of sexuality: courtship/dating/premarital sex, marital sex, extramarital sex, same sex relations, toys, kink, contraception, abortion, etc. What she presents certainly challenges predominant views about what sex and sexuality should be. Those from a religious and/or culturally conservative background will find much of it licentious and provocative, and yet it remains important to grapple with differing views and be willing to see where our views might well be more culturally conditioned than we'd care to have previously admitted. Definitely provocative. The author does not hide her perspective. But you might learn some things. **--galley received as part of early review program Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
"With curiosity and irreverent insight, science writer Rachel Feltman breaks down the long, weird, illustrious history of sex. She guides readers through the kaleidoscopic archives of centuries-old porn and erotica, as well as the bizarre history of treatments for erectile dysfunction, including radium suppositories and goat testicle transplants. Feltman provides the history of huge scientific questions-e.g., How are babies made?-and considers the ancient from a modern perspective: What was it like to have herpes several millennia ago? Even from unlikely sources like Hildegard von Bingen's treatise on the female orgasm, there's a lot we can learn about our modern-day sexual proclivities and practices from the historical record. And these figures from the past, from gay cowboys to polyamorous Vikings, prove that when it comes to how we have sex and who we do it with, there's no such thing as normal"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
