Taylor & Francis Ltd The ScienceFiction of Sex
Book SynopsisWhat can we learn from exploring the differences in male and female orgasmic experience? Is the penis an entity with a mind of its own? These issues and others, such as the popular portrayals of male sexuality as active and outwardly focused and female sexuality as passive and internally located, are discussed in The Science/Fiction of Sex. Contemporary feminist and poststructuralist theories of sex and gender are explored alongside an investigation of how people make sense of such concepts as heterosexuality, orgasm, sexual dysfunction, femininity and masculinity, and safer sex practice.Potts asks men and women about their actual experiences of heterosex. This interview material, combined with excerpts from sexological and medical texts and features from film and television, draws attention to the ways in which western cultural constructs influence our ideas and experiences of the body, sex, and gender. Potts also uses deconstructive theory as a textual tool, concentratinTrade ReviewPotts' analysis of current trends in sexology are on the mark. She offers an encyclopaedic overview of popular and scholarly writings together with original research that will be well received in sexuality, women's studies and cultural studies classes. - Leonore Tiefer, Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry, New York University of MedicineThe Science/Fiction of Sex is original, witty, extremely clever ... it has some remarkable chapters, such as the one on masculinity which I would rate among the best I've ever read. The analysis of the alternative erotic-theoretical systems proposed by Irigaray and Deleuze are first-class pieces of writing, daring and intelligent. - Rosi Braidotti, Netherlands Research School of Women's Studies, Utrecht UniversityAnnie Potts has opened up new ways of understanding the open potential of all forms of sexuality - an exciting and crucial project for feminists of the future. - Elizabeth Grosz, Rutgers UniversityAnnie Potts has opened up new ways of understanding the open potential of all forms of sexuality - an exciting and crucial project for feminists of the future. - Elizabeth Grosz, Rutgers UniversityThe Science/Fiction of Sex is original, witty, extremely clever ...

Taylor & Francis Becoming a Kink Aware Therapist
Book SynopsisAs a result of recent media interest, the practice of BDSM has become more mainstream yet remains marginalized. Now more than ever, greater numbers of heterosexual and LGBTQ couples are starting to explore some form of BDSM. However, profound misunderstandings continue leading to unintentional physical and psychological harm. Drawing on current research and ethnographic narratives from the kink community, this book seeks to provide psychotherapists with an introductory understanding of the culture and practice of BDSM, and presents specific therapeutic concerns related to common misconceptions. This book strives to de-pathologize BDSM practices, while also providing concrete ways to distinguish abuse from consent, harmful codependency, and more. Packed with practical suggestions and rich case studies, this book belongs on the shelf of every therapist seeing BDSM and kink clients.Trade ReviewPraise from the forewords:"The book lives up to its title. It is the first capable of taking an interested but wholly unexposed and untrained therapist through a process that will result in the ability to handle some complex therapeutic issues–or to know when those issues need referral to someone more experienced. Shahbaz and Chirinos have a commanding understanding of the research and clinical literature. They use their resources to persuade, through rational argument, those therapists who may not understand the paradigm shift within their own profession. The authors quickly and effectively demolish the pathology model by marshalling the scientific evidence used to change DSM-5…. The book is worth reading for the psychoeducational information alone, including the appendices and resources at the end."—Margie Nichols, PhD, founder and president, Institute for Personal Growth; psychologist and sex therapist"Becoming a Kink Aware Therapist is a much needed book on an understudied and misunderstood clinical issue. Traditionally, sex therapy had focused on married and partnered couples who experience problems of desire, arousal, or orgasm. The study of atypical or variant sexual desire and arousal has featured a psychopathology bias and treatment of the ‘identified patient.’ In contrast, Shahbaz and Chirinos have written an insightful book for therapists with a focus on a respectful understanding of the culture and practice of BDSM."—Barry McCarthy, PhD, professor of psychology, American University; author: Sex Made Simple and Rekindling DesireTable of ContentsForeword Margie Nichols Foreword Barry McCarthy Preface Acknowledgments Introduction 1. Reimagining Healthy Sexuality 2. There are More Than Fifty Shades of BDSM 3. Is it “Bad”, “Mad” and “Sick or, Is It Okay? 4. Psychotherapeutic Persecution: Kinkophobia and Othering 5.
