Sexual Behaviour and HIV/AIDS in Europe: Comparisons of National Surveys (Routledge Revivals)
by Michel Hubert; Nathalie Bajos; Theo SandfortOriginally published in 1998 Sexual Behaviour and HIV/AIDS in Europe is detailed study comparing the major population surveys on sexual behaviour and HIV/AIDS carried out in Europe at the time of publication. Leading European researchers explore the differences and similarities between European countries in patterns of sexual behaviour and responses to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. As well as providing an empirical and methodological base for future research, the comparative analyses lead researchers, policy makers, health-educators and the media to new insights and a deeper understanding of issues that are of central concern in many countries. The chapters include discussion of data on sexual initiation, homosexual and bisexual behaviour, sexual practices, sexual partners, risk behaviour, STDs, preventive practices, the normative context, knowledge of HIV/AIDS, and attitudes towards people with HIV/AIDS. The book results from a major European Concerted Action, funded by the European Union Biomedical and Health Research programme (BIOMED), and coordinated by the Centre d'Etudes Sociologiques of the Facultes Universitaires Saint-Louis, Brussels, Belgium. It follows Sexual Interactions and HIV Risk, published in 1997.
Sexual Chemistry
by Lara V. MarksMarks (former senior research fellow, history of 20th-century medicine, Imperial College) traces the origins of the pill to the Mexican yam plant, the American organic chemist, Russell Marker, and to scientists fleeing Europe for America during WWII. According to Marks, the novelty of the pill that it was separated in time from intercourse, that women could use it secretly, and that it molded perceptions that women were to take responsibility for birth control set the standards for forms of contraception that followed. The pill, one of the most investigated drugs in history, has been blamed as a creation by males to control females and use them as test subjects. But, says Marks, "This criticism not only ignores the historical context in which the pill was developed" but also the fact that "the research on the pill was both initiated and funded by women." Marks's research, partly based on new primary sources and oral interviews with key figures in the pill's history, yields an academic history with popular aspirations. Annotation c.

Sexual Enhancers From Nature
by Dr Angela FetznerAs you will read in this guidebook, it does not always have to be the blue pills, there are numerous mild yet safe herbal sexual enhancers. As you will read in this guidebook, it does not always have to be the blue pills, there are numerous mild yet safe herbal sexual enhancers. Many of the herbal sexual enhancers have been around for a long time in the often faraway countries of origin and their potency-enhancing effect has been used there for ages - but it is only gradually that these herbal sexual enhancers are also conquering the European market. Behind the desire for herbal sexual enhancers is, of course, also the desire not to have to "work off" the sexual act with a chemical pill, but deep inside us we carry the desire for a holistic sexuality - mysterious, unique, and mystical. And this is where love plants can start: These strengthen not only the potency, but awaken all the senses and can help to reduce stress and really relax again. If we take this to heart, our love life becomes (again) fulfilling and mysterious.

Sexual Fluidity: Understanding Women's Love and Desire
by Lisa M. DiamondIs love "blind" when it comes to gender? For women, it just might be. This unsettling and original book offers a radical new understanding of the context-dependent nature of female sexuality. Lisa Diamond argues that for some women, love and desire are not rigidly heterosexual or homosexual but fluid, changing as women move through the stages of life, various social groups, and, most important, different love relationships. This perspective clashes with traditional views of sexual orientation as a stable and fixed trait. But that view is based on research conducted almost entirely on men. Diamond is the first to study a large group of women over time. She has tracked one-hundred women for more than ten years as they have emerged from adolescence into adulthood. She summarizes their experiences and reviews research ranging from the psychology of love to the biology of sex differences. Sexual Fluidity offers moving first-person accounts of women falling in and out of love with men or women at different times in their lives. For some, gender becomes irrelevant: "I fall in love with the person, not the gender," say some respondents. Sexual Fluidity offers a new understanding of women's sexuality--and of the central importance of love.

Sexual Homicide: Patterns and Motives- Paperback
by Ann W. Burgess Robert K. Ressler John E. DouglasWho are the men committing the rising number of serial homicides in the U.S. -- and why do they kill? The increase in these violent crimes over the past decade has created an urgent need for more and better information about these men: their crime scene patterns, violent acts, and above all, their motivations for committing these shocking and repetitive murders. This authoritative book represents the data, findings, and implications of a long-term F.B.I.-sponsored study of serial sex killers. Specially trained F.B.I. agents examined thirty-six convicted, incarcerated sexual murderers to build a valuable new bank of information which reveals the world of the serial sexual killer in both quantitative and qualitative detail. Data was obtained from official psychiatric and criminal records, court transcripts, and prison reports, as well as from extensive interviews with the offenders themselves. Featured in this book is detailed information on the F.B.I.'s recently developed Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (VICAP) and a sample of an actual VICAP Crime Analysis Report Form.

Sexual Interactions and HIV Risk: New Conceptual Perspectives in European Research (Social Aspects of AIDS)
by Luc Van Campenhoudt Mitchell Cohen Gustavo Guizzardi Dominique HausserHow sexual risk is negotiated betwen partners is an area of considerable theoretical interest, with the dominant models of analysis focusing on individual decisions to engage in sexual behaviour and relying on "rational" decision-making. This work, based on the findings from work coordinated by the Centre d'Etudes Sociologiques in Brussels, offers a social critique of the theories and perspectives which have currently been brought to bear in the study of sexual risk behaviour and HIV. Leading European researchers offer a conceptual framework for analysis based on sexual interactions and their social context. The practical relevance of new perspectives on sexual behaviour in the context of HIV/AIDS prevention is also discussed.

Sexual Liberation, Socialist Style: Communist Czechoslovakia and the Science of Desire, 1945–1989
by Kateřina LiškováThis is the first account of sexual liberation in Eastern Europe during the Cold War. Kateřina Lišková reveals how, in the case of Czechoslovakia, important aspects of sexuality were already liberated during the 1950s – abortion was legalized, homosexuality decriminalized, the female orgasm came into experts’ focus – and all that was underscored by an emphasis on gender equality. However, with the coming of Normalization, gender discourses reversed and women were to aspire to be caring mothers and docile wives. Good sex was to cement a lasting marriage and family. In contrast to the usual Western accounts highlighting the importance of social movements to sexual and gender freedom, here we discover, through the analysis of rich archival sources covering forty years of state socialism in Czechoslovakia, how experts, including sexologists, demographers and psychologists, advised the state on population development, marriage and the family to shape the most intimate aspects of people’s lives.
The Sexual Life of Catherine M. (Books That Changed the World)
by Catherine MilletThis New York Times–bestselling memoir of one woman&’s erotic escapades is &“brilliantly literate, utterly unabashed [and] consistently provocative&” (The Philadelphia Inquirer). Since it was first published in France, The Sexual Life of Catherine M. has become a global literary phenomenon, hailed as one of the most important books on sexuality to be published in decades. Catherine Millet, the eminent editor of Art Press, has always led a free and active sexual life—from alfresco encounters in Italy to a gang bang on the edge of the Bois du Boulogne to a high-class orgy at a chichi Parisian restaurant. She has taken pleasure in the indistinct darkness of a peep show booth and under the probing light of a movie camera at an orgy. And in The Sexual Life of Catherine M., she recounts it all, from tender interludes with a lover to situations where her partners were so numerous and simultaneous they became indistinguishable parts of a collective body. A graphic account of physical gratification and a relentlessly honest look at the consequences—both good and bad—of sex stripped of sentiment, The Sexual Life of Catherine M. is &“truly a masterpiece of sexual exploration [that] will be a classic&” (The Hartford Courant).
Sexual Outlaw, Erotic Mystic

She attended classes at the Theosophical Society and began studying a tremendous amount of materials on various occult subjects. She taught correspondence courses to women and newly married couples to educate them on the sacred nature of sex, maintaining that her explicit knowledge came from her nightly experiences with an angel named Soph.

Sexual Selection in Homo sapiens
by Menelaos ApostolouThe present book aims to examine how sexual selection works in the human species. Almost all scholarly effort focuses on sexual selection in non-human species and extrapolates the findings to the human one. However, human mating has a unique pattern not found in any other species, namely parental influence over mate choice. Across preindustrial societies, the typical pattern of long-term mating is arranged marriage, where parents choose spouses for their children. By doing so, parents effectively become a sexual selection force. Traits that enhance an individual's chance to be selected as a son- or a daughter-in-law confer important reproductive advantages to those who are endowed with them, increasing in frequency in the population. The author has coined the term parental choice to describe the sexual selection force that arises from parental control over mating. He synthesizes extensive theoretical and empirical work in order to understand and model this force. The aim is to understand which factors give rise to parental choice and to combine these insights into constructing a more formal model. It also aims to further examine whether the predictions of the model fit the patterns of mating found across different types of human societies, and how the model can be used to understand the evolution of behavioral traits involved in mating. By synthesizing the various arguments put forward and published across the literature, the book offers a comprehensive argument and overview of an aspect of sexual selection unique to our species. Furthermore, the book revises and extends previously made arguments and models, while it provides useful insights on how the proposed revision of sexual selection theory can enable us to understand a wide range of human behavioral phenomena. It should be key reading for those interested in studying sexual selection in general and in the Homo sapiens species in particular.
