Watkins Media Limited Go the Way Your Blood Beats: On Truth and Desire
Book SynopsisUsing bisexuality as a frame, Go the Way Your Blood Beats questions the division of sexuality into straight and gay, in a timely exploration of the complex histories and psychologies of human desire. A challenge to the idea that sexuality can either ever be fully known or neatly categorised, it is a meditation on desire's unknowability. Interwoven with anonymous addresses to past loves - the sex of whom remain obscure - the book demonstrates the universalism of human desire. Part essay, part memoir, part love letter, Go the Way Your Blood Beats asks us to see desire and sexuality as analogous with art - a mysterious, creative force.

Watkins Media Limited Whore of New York: A Confession
Book SynopsisLiara Roux is accustomed to being mislabelled and misunderstood. As a child, Liara's inquisitive, instinctive, and rebellious nature was frequently problematised in a world designed around the requirements of their neurotypical, cis, heterosexual male colleagues. Coming of age in an oppressively restrictive home, they shuffled tarot and explored self portraiture to rationalise the injustice of chronic pain, toxic lovers, and the cruel silence of divinity. Critiquing capitalism's mechanisms of exploitation, the conservatism of Western medicine, and the politics surrounding sex work, Whore of New York: A Confession is a candid study of artistic awakening, and both spiritual and sexual growth after abuse, seen through the eyes of a proud outsider.Trade Review“While Liara tells her own story, she represents aspects of the stories of so many sex workers who've had overlapping experiences. A gripping and smooth read — each paragraph included for a reason.” "Whore of New York is a vibrant portrait of young life at the intersection of pleasure, politics, and personal growth. With a clear view of political, social and economic realities, Roux is doing important work in her portrayal of sex work not as apart from life in general, but as a part of life as a whole. Complex, raw, intimate."“Liara Roux writes with an intimate, anthropological eye about her experiences as a sex worker … an original reflection on joy, anguish, sex, love and labor.”“An incendiary new memoir … it’s an account of sex work that focuses on the actual experience of the person doing the working rather than employing the same old, one-dimensional tropes.”“Roux aims to portray sex work as work, in all of its chaos and charm.”

Indiana University Press When We Collide
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Epstein-Levi has written the first book in Jewish ethics that neither condescends nor preaches to its reader. This is nothing short of liberation. There are very few academic books that are such a joy to read."—Martin Kavka, Florida State University"Rebecca Epstein-Levi's When We Collide brings rabbinic texts to life, literally. Epstein-Levi looks at how rabbinic texts match up against life, how they illuminate, and are illuminated by, lived sexual experience in the 21st century. Epstein-Levi is not content to stay in the comfortable realm of scholarly theory, though she does that too. She gets into the nuts and bolts of sex – how people actually behave, not how they like to say they behave, or how think they should behave, but how they actually do – to find insights from canonical Jewish traditions that can serve as guidance. Those insights do not come from the usual rabbinic-text suspects, however, but from texts that on the face of it are entirely unrelated to sex – texts on purity, texts with stories about rabbis interacting with other rabbis, texts that issue laws of capital punishment. Epstein-Levi finds in these far-flung and faraway ancient texts the resources – or as Epstein-Levi calls it, the dialogue partners – for a fresh sexual ethics today. She is able to make these connections because she starts with the presumption that sex is social, not separate and private, and that it is bound up with who we are in the fullest sense – in all our sexual, physical, and neuro diversity – and with how our communities operate. As we face a never-ending pandemic and a climate crisis that keeps getting worse, Epstein-Levi's reflections on risk as it relates to social life, sex, and the human experience feel all too timely and utterly pressing. When We Collide helps us to read rabbinic texts and to navigate sexual and social relationships, and it does by bringing the two fields together – rabbinics and sexual ethics – in a totally new way."—Beth Berkowitz, Ingeborg Rennert Chair of Jewish Studies and Professor of Religion, Barnard College.Table of ContentsAcknowledgementsIntroductionPart I: Groundings1.

Taylor & Francis Married Women Who Love Women
Book SynopsisOriginally written in the 1990s, this book remains a key resource for women in heterosexual marriages who discover, or are coming to terms with, their lesbianism or bisexuality. This classic edition includes a new foreword from Ann Northropâveteran journalist, activist, and co-host of Gay USAâthat reflects on the changes in language, intersectionality, and understandings of gender since first publication.Celebrating 25 years since first publication, this book shares the authorâs personal story, as well as the descriptive experience of others, to provide validation and empowerment to multitudes of women in their search for their true identities. The author gives women ways in which to structure and restructure their lives and their families after they realize their samegender sexuality. Chapters consider questions such as how women make this discovery, reactions from loved ones, and the outcomes for marriages and families. Updated throughout with contemporary understandTrade Review'This book is a gift, to all of us. There’s a reason that Carren Strock’s amazing Married Women Who Love Women: And More... is now being recognized as a classic 25 years after it first came out. It's because there are profoundly interesting and moving stories here, but, most importantly, it is personal, straight forward, and real. It allows people to connect emotionally and offers life lessons for everyone.' Ann Northrop, veteran journalist, activist, and co-host of Gay USA'This book is a powerful tool for therapists and other professionals. It is easy to read, has accessible content, and is a pertinent addition to gender and sexuality studies. It has also proven to be a great support for the people who have gone through this experience.' Lisa Speidel, assistant professor in the Women, Gender and Sexuality Department, University of Virginia; co-author of The Edge of Sex: Navigating a Sexually Confusing Culture From the Margins (Routledge)'An enlightening book that addresses with sensitivity and compassion for all involved, the difficult circumstance—more common than many may realize—of women who are married to men, who then become aware of their primary desire for other women. Updated to speak to evolving sexual and emotional mores, this volume underscores how complex the human heart is, and how resistant to rigid and unchanging labels human sexual responses can be.' Naomi Wolf, author of The Beauty Myth and Outrages: Sex, Censorship and the Criminalization of Love, USA'This book provides a deep, thoughtful, and moving account of the diverse experiences of married women who find themselves unexpectedly but passionately falling in love with other women. The powerful first-person accounts in this book will shatter all of your stereotypes about what 'typical lesbians' or 'typical bisexuals' are supposed to be like, and whether those are even the right terms to apply to some of these cases! Anyone who has marveled at the power of love and desire to turn life upside down will find this book captivating and engrossing.' Lisa M. Diamond, professor of Psychology and Gender Studies, University of Utah, and author of Sexual Fluidity, USA'Carren Strock’s first book helped me find my authentic voice and life many years ago. Her words spoke to the depths of my heart, gave me the courage to step fully into who I am, and helped me to live an authentic life. I am sure that this edition will help many more women. I highly recommend it! As a 62-year-old woman who came out when I was 41, her words gave me the wings to fly. I will be forever grateful for her literary contributions!' Micki Grimland, licensed clinical social worker, USA'I think Married Women Who Love Women is a great book. I find it helpful for women who are debating what to do. I feel that it’s on a level with Nancy Friday’s My Secret Garden because it opens up the possibilities and normalizes a variety of sexual feelings and sexual ideas for a number of people.' Elisabeth Gordon, psychiatrist, Sexual Health, USA'Twenty-years after Carren Strock shattered barriers with her best-selling book, Married Women Who Love Women, changes in social mores and attitudes have necessitated a third edition. This book apprises the expanding consciousness of sexual attraction, orientation, fluidity and identity. By sharing highly personal and compelling stories of married women around the world who have an affinity for other women, she has created a safe space for kinship, understanding, and sisterhood for those who identify with this experience. Carren’s honest description of her own journey helps to sooth the angst that often accompanies this type of exploration. Married Women Who Love Women is a useful guide for therapists and helping professionals—and most of all, for women who love women, their partners, family members, and friends.' Margaret DaRos, psychotherapist, contributing author to the anthology, Out of the Closet, Into Our Hearts: Celebrating Our Gay Family Members, and board member of Portland Maine PFLAG, USA'Married Women Who Love Women deepens the complex narrative around women’s lives. While society is evolving and is seemingly more open to the fluidity of gender and sexual expression, the actual negotiations between the women and those they love--husbands, children, family, friends, and lovers—is still shrouded in societal norms and pressures. This edition using women’s words, and some of their husbands and children’s voices along with accessible professional/academic analysis allows the reader to begin to understand the complexities of gender but more importantly the fluidity of love.'JoAnne Myers, associate professor of Political Science and co-founder of Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Marist College, USA, and author of The Historical Dictionary of the Lesbian and Gay Liberation MovementsTable of ContentsForeword to the Classic Edition by Ann Northrop Acknowledgements Introduction 2020 or Recap Part One: The Discovery 1.

Inner Traditions Bear and Company Advanced Spiritual Intimacy: The Yoga of Deep
Book SynopsisSexual development does not end in adolescence. There are advanced stages of glandular, emotional, and erotic development based in the lifelong "puberty of the spine." Known in India as kundalini awakening, these stages form the energetic basis of all yoga forms and deeper erotic aspirations. They present an opportunity for couples and individuals to explore the consciousness-expanding abilities of sexual energy as both spirituality and sexuality transform into what Michel Foucault called ars erotica, far beyond the Freudian scientia sexualissexuality of the Western world. Offering a guide to the advanced stages of human sexuality and a passionately infused tantric yoga practice, Stuart Sovatsky explains how to awaken the complete spinal puberty, resulting in spiritual intimacy and orgasmic pineal maturity that far surpasses the gratifications of modern sexuality. With illustrated instructions, he reveals flow-yoga asanas, mantras, and devotional breathing practices for solo kundalini yoga as well as couples'' yoga practices and chakra meditations to awaken the heart and the divinely eroticized mind. He shares inspiring stories from those on this path about ever-deepening life partnerships, enriched family life, enhanced personal creativity, profound new understandings of conception, masculinity, femininity, and gender itself as well as healing emotional scars of romantic breakups and sexual abuse. Sovatsky shows that by transcending conventional Western sexuality and returning to the ars eroticabeliefs of ancient India, we can harness the divine energy--glimpsed for only an instant by most people--at the heart of all erotic yearning.

Independently Published Sexo Es Amor: Sexualidad, diamante por pulir
Book SynopsisEste libro es el reflejo de mas de cuatro decadas de busqueda, investigacion y estudios de lo que es la sexualidad. Sin embargo, tengo en claro que solo marca un comienzo. El sexo no se circunscribe a la parte anatomica a la cual nos remite tradicionalmente, sino que es un nucleo de poder, una fuerza primaria energetica, un portal que nos comunica con el universo y la tierra; es el primer eslabon de la cadena que nos llevara, a traves del amor, hasta la superconciencia, hacia nuestro espiritu.De ahi deriva el nombre de la saga, Sexo es amor, y este primer volumen da una vision somera de los elementos que es necesario conocer para entender que es la sexualidad humana.Comenzamos conociendo nuestro origen: somos un ser humano con un infinito poder de dar amor porque es nuestra esencia, y debemos despertar el principio dormido en cada uno de nosotros al verlo reflejado en nuestra pareja. En la relacion sexual consciente, se vive al ser humano tal y como es, en confianza y seguridad, sin barreras en nuestra intimidad, a fin de expresar nuestro amor sincero que, al unir nuestros sexos, nos permitira experimentar el verdadero orgasmo.Ximena Lagos Provoste es chilena.
