Sex, Sexuality and Sexual Health in Southern Africa (Sexuality, Culture and Health)
by Deevia BhanaThis book—Sex, Sexuality and Sexual Health in Southern Africa—is structured around four major themes: gender and sexuality diversity; love, pleasure and respect; gender, sexual violence and health; and sexuality, gender and sexual justice. Chapters in this book analyse sexuality in relation to recent developments in the Southern African region and what this might mean for contemporary theory, policy and practice. Sex, sexuality and sexual health are often viewed through a narrow biomedical lens, ignoring the fact that they are profoundly social and historical in character. The contributors in this book bring to light the entanglements of sexuality with respect, recognition, rights and mutual respectful pleasure. Authors draw attention to partnerships, allyships and feminist, queer and trans coalitions in the pursuit of sexual health and justice in the region. The book will be of interest to final-year undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers and activists as well as those working in Women and Gender Studies, Critical Sexuality Studies, Sexual and Reproductive Health, Development Studies, Public Health, Psychology, Education, Sociology and Anthropology.
Sex, Society, and the Making of Pornography: The Pornographic Object of Knowledge
by Jeffrey EscoffierHardcore pornographic films combine fantasy and real sex to create a unique genre of entertainment. Pornographic films are also historical documents that give us access to the sexual behavior and eroticism of different historical periods. This book shows how the making of pornographic films is a social process that draws on the fantasies, sexual scripts, and sexual identities of performers, writers, directors, and editors to produce sexually exciting videos and movies. Yet hardcore pornographic films have also created a body of knowledge that constitutes, in this digital age, an enormous archive of sexual fantasies that serve as both a form of sex education and self-help guides. Sex, Society, and the Making of Pornography focuses on sex and what can be learned about it from pornographic representations.
Sex Sounds: Vectors of Difference in Electronic Music
by Danielle Shlomit SoferAn investigation of sexual themes in electronic music since the 1950s, with detailed case studies of &“electrosexual music&” by a wide range of creators. In Sex Sounds, Danielle Shlomit Sofer investigates the repeated focus on sexual themes in electronic music since the 1950s. Debunking electronic music&’s origin myth—that it emerged in France and Germany, invented by Pierre Schaeffer and Karlheinz Stockhausen, respectively—Sofer defines electronic music more inclusively to mean any music with an electronic component, drawing connections between academic institutions, radio studios, experimental music practice, hip-hop production, and histories of independent and commercial popular music. Through a broad array of detailed case studies—examining music that ranges from Schaeffer&’s musique concrète to a video workshop by Annie Sprinkle—Sofer offers a groundbreaking look at the social and cultural impact sex has had on audible creative practices. Sofer argues that &“electrosexual music&” has two central characteristics: the feminized voice and the &“climax mechanism.&” Sofer traces the historical fascination with electrified sex sounds, showing that works representing women&’s presumed sexual experience operate according to masculinist heterosexual tropes, and presenting examples that typify the electroacoustic sexual canon. Noting electronic music history&’s exclusion of works created by women, people of color, women of color, and, in particular Black artists, Sofer then analyzes musical examples that depart from and disrupt the electroacoustic norms, showing how even those that resist the norms sometimes reinforce them. These examples are drawn from categories of music that developed in parallel with conventional electroacoustic music, separated—segregated—from it. Sofer demonstrates that electrosexual music is far more representative than the typically presented electroacoustic canon.

Sex, Tech, and Faith: Ethics for a Digital Age
by Kate OttA values-based, shame-free, pleasure-positive discussion of Christian ethics in response to a range of pressing issues in the digital age—including online pornography, dating apps, sexting, virtual-reality hookups, and sex robots.Digital innovation has rapidly changed the landscape of sexual experience in the twenty-first century. Rules-based sexual ethics, subscribed to by many Christians, are unable to keep up with new developments and, more often than not, seem effective at little other than generating shame.Progressive ethicist Kate Ott steps into this void with an expansive yet nuanced approach that prioritizes honesty and discernment over fear and judgment. Rather than producing a list of don&’ts, Ott considers the possibilities alongside the potential harm in everything from the use of internet porn to the practice of online dating to human-robot intimacy. With the aid of thought-provoking anecdotes and illuminating research, Ott invites readers to wrestle with the question of how to practice a just and flourishing sexuality in the digital age—and does so by drawing on core values of the Christian tradition.A rich resource for both individuals and groups, Sex, Tech, and Faith includes discussion questions at the end of each chapter for those considering these issues in community, as well as extensive youth study guides for parents, pastors, and teachers in need of age-appropriate means of beginning these difficult conversations with teens. Readers of all backgrounds and identities will be challenged to consider how their choices and habits in the digital world can lead to sexual health, wholeness, dignity, and fulfillment—for themselves and those in relationship with them.
Sex vs. Survival: The Life and Ideas of Sabina Spielrein
by John Launer&“An impressively researched, documented, and readable biography&” of a woman who played a key role in the history of psychology (Library Journal, starred review). Who was Sabina Spielrein? She is probably best known for her notorious affair with Carl Jung, which was dramatized in the film A Dangerous Method, starring Keira Knightley. Yet her life story is much more compelling than just one famous relationship. Spielrein overcame family and psychological abuse to become a profoundly original thinker in her own right. Sex vs. Survival is the first biography to put her life and ideas at the center of the story and examine Spielrein&’s key role in the development of psychoanalysis. Drawing on fresh research into Spielrein&’s diaries, papers, and correspondence, John Launer shows how Spielrein&’s overlooked ideas―rejected by Freud and Jung but substantially vindicated by later developments in psychology and evolutionary biology—may represent the last and most important stage in the rediscovery of an extraordinary life. &“An invaluable resource for understanding Spielrein&’s significance, her progressive thinking, and her groundbreaking contributions to the history of psychoanalysis.&” —Publishers Weekly &“By the end of Launer&’s account, there&’s no mistaking what the founding fathers of analysis did to this particular founding mother—and probably to many other women. At least this biography offers Spielrein some retrospective justice.&” —Jewish Book World
Sex Work and Human Dignity: Law, Politics and Discourse (Interdisciplinary Studies in Sex for Sale)
by Stewart CunninghamThe notion of human dignity is frequently, yet enigmatically, invoked in legal and political debates on sex work, where many people use it without much elaboration on exactly what they mean by it. Sex Work and Human Dignity: Law, Politics and Discourse sheds light on this enigma, by exploring how dignity-based discourses are used by those who write and talk about prostitution and also what role these discourses may play in shaping wider cultural understandings of sex work and sex workers. The book draws on political discourse theory and is international in its scope, with analysis of legal cases, textual sources, and empirical data gathered through interviews with activists from several different countries in the Global North and South. The book traces how the concept of dignity is used in a range of legal and political discourses on sex work and ultimately asks to what extent dignity-based discourses help to advance, or hinder, sex workers’ social inclusion. This book will appeal to students and researchers interested in sex work and feminism, as well as those who study human dignity. Its interdisciplinary nature means it will appeal to those working in a range of disciplines, including law, sociology, philosophy, and political theory.
Sex, Work and Professionalism: Working in HIV/AIDS (Social Aspects of AIDS)
by Katie DeverellSex, Work and Professionalism examines what happens when professional concern is defined in terms of sex. Based on original fieldwork with outreach workers in HIV prevention it addresses issues of professionalism, emotion work and boundaries, integrating empirical insights with sociological theory. In most professional relationships sex is not defined as part of the relationship, in fact it is explicitly excluded in guidelines and codes of ethics. HIV prevention outreach workers work in sexual environments with a sexually defined target group and are often employed on the basis of their sexuality. They have to learn how to balance their work and professional lives, overcoming conflicts such as: * professional role V community role * sexual skills V sexual boundaries * personal experiences V professional understanding * professional identity V worldviews. Many of the questions being raised in this book about the meaning of professionalism, the pain and pleasure in emotion work and the management of boundaries between home, sex and work are being asked more generally by workers in a range of organisations. Sex, Work and Professionalism argues for a new understanding of professionalism more appropriate to the human services.
Sex, Work and Sex Work: Eroticizing Organization
by Joanna Brewis Stephen LinsteadSex is much more rife in the workplace than many would think according to this fascinating and controversial new book. It argues that not only does sexuality pervade every aspect of organizations, but also that organization pervades every aspect of our sexuality. This two-way conceptualization lends the book a two-part structure, covering firstly the ways in which organizational behaviour is shaped through issues such as male managers' experience of violence, organizational constructions of sexual harassment, and professionals who work with sex offenders. The second part of the book examines how sex is organized for commercial purposes, and considers sex work as an industry which can be analyzed as any other, with important insights for normal organizing. Key features of the book include sections on: * organizing as sexual activity* connecting desire, the erotic, the abject and organization* the 'hidden' penetration of organization processes by sexuality* the 'dark side' of sex and organization and the importance of transgression* the double effect of discursive and material placing* organizing sexuality within prostitution* prostitution as a complex and varied industry. Fascinating and informative, this controversial book is a valuable source of information for postgraduates and researchers in the fields of business, management and sexuality and gender studies.

Sex Work and Social Movement in India: Mobilizing in the Time of Pandemics (Routledge/Edinburgh South Asian Studies Series)
by Toorjo GhoseThis book examines and theorizes about the emergence, growth, impact, collapse, and rejuvenation of a sex worker movement in India, exploring the manner in which the two pandemics – HIV and COVID-19 – bookended a feminist movement through more than a quarter of a century, shaping its trajectory over the course of that time.Focusing on the sex workers’ collective Durbar Mahila Samanwaya Committee (DMSC) in Kolkata, the book asks these questions: How did a sex workers’ collective rise from the margins of Indian society during the HIV pandemic, to become the vanguard of a global sex work movement, with half a million members, and partner collectives stretching across the world? What were the strategies deployed by the collective to engage with the health, social, and political landscapes surrounding it? Moreover, what were the factors that led to the splintering of a solidarity that had endured for a quarter of a century? Finally, what does the DMSC story tell us about social movements that rise from the extreme margins of society in postcolonial contexts? Drawing on empirical research, the author explores the conceptual and practice implications for the fields of social movement, feminist, public health, and postcolonial political scholarship. The book suggests that activist, public health, social work, and policy initiatives in poor women’s communities in postcolonial contexts need to be informed by the temporal, community, organizational, institutional, and affective markers that emerge in the research.The first book to examine the DMSC sex work movement in India as a significant feminist movement of our times, this book will be of interest to researchers from a wide range of disciplines, including South Asian Studies, Sociology, Social Work, Public Health, Gender and Sexuality Studies, and Political Science.
Sex Work, Health, and Human Rights: Global Inequities, Challenges, and Opportunities for Action
by Shira M. Goldenberg Ruth Morgan Thomas Anna Forbes Stefan BaralThis open access book provides a comprehensive overview of the health inequities and human rights issues faced by sex workers globally across diverse contexts, and outlines evidence-based strategies and best practices. Sex workers face severe health and social inequities, largely as the result of structural factors including punitive and criminalized legal environments, stigma, and social and economic exclusion and marginalization. Although previous work has largely emphasized an elevated burden and gaps in HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) services in sex work, less attention has been paid to the broader health and human rights concerns faced by sex workers. This contributed volume addresses this gap. The chapters feature a variety of perspectives including academic, community, implementing partners, and government to synthesize research evidence as well as lessons learned from local-level experiences across different regions, and are organized under three parts:Burden of health and human rights inequities faced by sex workers globally, including infectious diseases (e.g., HIV, STIs), violence, sexual and reproductive health, and drug use Structural determinants of health and human rights, including legislation, law enforcement, community engagement, intersectoral collaboration, stigma, barriers to health access, im/migration issues, and occupational safety and healthEvidence-based services and best practices at various levels ranging from individual and community to policy-level interventions to identify best practices and avenues for future research and interventionsSex Work, Health, and Human Rights is an essential resource for researchers, policy-makers, governments, implementing partners, international organizations and community-based organizations involved in research, policies, or programs related to sex work, public health, social justice, gender-based violence, women's health and harm reduction.
Sex Worker Unionization: Global Developments, Challenges and Possibilities
by G. GallSex Worker Unionisation examines the challenges and opportunities offered by unionisation for Sex Workers. Exploring unionisation projects undertaken by Sex Workers in most major economies, this ground-breaking study shows how sex-workers have collectively sought to control and organise their work and working lives by co-determining the wage-effort with their de facto employers. It highlights the range of significant obstacles that have impeded their progress, including owner hostility, state regulation and the sway of radical feminism that is present in many unions. Outlining a more efficacious model for sex worker unionisation based upon combining occupation unionism and social movement unionism, this pioneering and controversial new book offers an important study of business organization in a unique industry.

Sexistence
by Jean-Luc NancySex, more than just a part of our experience, troubles our conceptions of existence. Drawing on a fascinating array of sources, ancient and modern, philosophical and literary, Jean-Luc Nancy explores and upholds the form-giving thrust of the drive. Nancy reminds us that we are more comfortable with the drama of prohibitions, ideals, repression, transgression, and destruction, which often hamper thinking about sex and gender, than with the affirmation of an originary trouble at the limits of language that divides being and opens the world.Sexistence develops a new philosophical account of sexuality that resonates with contemporary research on gender and biopolitics. Without attempting to be comprehensive, the book ranges from the ancient world through psychoanalysis to discover the turbulence of the drive at the heart of existence.
Sexografías
by Gabriela WienerEdición ampliada de las crónicas sexuales de Gabriela Wiener, un recorrido temerario y trepidante por el lado más salvaje del periodismo narrativo, con prólogo de Camila Sosa Villada. «Gabriela Wiener es una fuerza de la naturaleza y así escribe: un terremoto sobre nuestros tabúes y prejuicios. Este es un libro inteligente y delicioso».María Fernanda Ampuero «Gracias a Belcebú por la mano atrevida de Gabriela Wiener y por su libro, que desorienta a cualquiera que cree sabérselas todas sobre sexo. [...] Este libro es una criatura con sus propios caprichos, que conoce bien el camino al éxtasis, que entristece y desboca como cualquiera de nosotros. Una Wiener que se queda sobre nuestro pecho derramando preguntas mortales como un veneno. La incógnita sobre el sexo, sobre su estrategia para sobrevivir, renovarse y asegurar su perpetuidad. Cuán lejos podemos llegar para sentir algo, qué tan abajo, qué tan arriba y dónde se refugia nuestro placer. A pesar de haber sido escrito durante las últimas dos décadas, Sexografías me hizo pensar en lo necesario que es el sexo para nuestra cultura. Lo tengamos o no, lo deseemos o no. [...] ¿Que si me calenté al leer Sexografías? Sí. ¿Leyendo crónicas periodísticas? Sí. [...] Este libro no pide piedad, pero exige que no mezquinemos cuerpo como lectores. Si la escritora vende así su alma al diablo por la palabra, por qué nosotros no responder con la misma entrega».Del prólogo de Camila Sosa Villada Reseñas:«Gabriela Wiener es un fenómeno de la naturaleza que es un fenómeno de la literatura que es un fenómeno en sentido lato. Una vez, siendo jefa de redacción de un diario español, leí Sexografías y la llamé por teléfono. La llamé un minuto después de cerrar el libro, urgentemente. Cuando la tuve delante, reconocí a la jefa de la tribu. Otra vez leí Sexografías y abandoné el periodismo durante mucho tiempo. Hoy leo Sexografías y confirmo aquellas sospechas: es posible anudar creación, periodismo, compromiso y humor. Ella lo hace aquí. Gabriela Wiener existe».Cristina Fallarás «Gabriela Wiener se pasea por los mundos del sexo como una antropóloga curiosa que visita un planeta de alienígenas: observadora, detallista, divertida, aguda y atinada traductora del disparate de la vida».Rosa Montero «Este libro me cambió la vida y me la vuelve a cambiar cada vez que lo releo. En Sexografías, el sexo es un camino sutil que Wiener toma para armar una voz y dibujar una teoría implícita y profunda sobre el mundo y el sentido de experimentarlo, vivirlo y conquistarlo».Tamara Tenenbaum «Tan deliciosamente escrito como excitante y riguroso: libro de culto para el cuerpo, el deseo, el goce y el fin de los traumas. Leer Sexografías es disfrutar de una escritora exquisita yferoz».Cristian Alarcón «La nueva edición de este clásico contemporáneo multiplica su interés original gracias a la calidad y el jugo de sus renovaciones.

Sexual Abuse in Sport
by Helen OwtonThis book is about sexual abuse in sport, and specifically about one girl's experience of long-term chronic abuse in sport. A 'non-conventional' approach is employed to explore the experiences of a female athlete named Bella who was groomed, sexually abused by her male coach, and then subjected to years of athlete domestic violence. Through a collaborative auto-ethnography process, these experiences are reported through vignettes and selected poems seeking to involve the reader in the grooming process of a young female athlete, so that they might react from the different social positions they currently occupy. Bella's story acts as a pedagogical resource in ways that stimulate ethical discussions and enhance knowledge of sexual abuse in sport, by assisting those involved to better understand their own 'field' and the dynamics of abuse within it, in order to develop effective abuse prevention strategies.

Sexual Abuse in Youth Sport: A sociocultural analysis (Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and Society)
by Michael J. HartillCases of sport-related child sexual abuse have received increasing news coverage in recent years. This book documents and evaluates this important issue through a critical investigation of the research and theory on sexual violence and child sex offending that has emerged over the past thirty years. Based on life-history interviews with male and female ‘survivors’ of child sexual abuse in sport, this text offers a deeper appreciation for the experiences of those who are sexually victimized within sports and school-sport settings. Drawing on a wide range of sources, it also provides a new theoretical framework through which child sexual abuse in sport may be explored. Offering a critique spanning psychology, sociology and criminology, this book challenges existing theories of sex offending while advocating an alternative epistemology to help better understand and address this social problem. Presenting an original sociological approach to this field of study, Sexual Abuse in Youth Sport is important reading for any researcher, policy-maker or practitioner working in youth sport, physical education, sports coaching, sport policy, child protection or social work.
