Download or read book Handbook of the New Sexuality Studies written by Steven Seidman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-03-12 with total page 661 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the field of sexuality studies has become a growth area in academia and classes on sexuality studies are incorporated into various disciplines, the expanding book market has been filled with specialist oriented texts which are often theoretically focused and contain too many summaries for an undergraduate audience. Addressing this imbalance, this key new volume presents the field of sexuality in an accessible and engaging way for undergraduates. Breaking new ground, both substantively and stylistically, this book offers students, academics and researchers an accessible, engaging introduction and overview of this emerging field. Its central premise is to explore the social character of sexuality, the role of social differences such as race or nationality in creating sexual variation, and the ways sex is entangled in relations of power and inequality. Through this novel approach, the field of sexuality is considered, for the first time, in multicultural, global, and comparative terms and from a truly social perspective. This important volume consists of over fifty short and original essays on the key topics and themes in sexuality studies, and interviews with twelve leading scholars in the field which convey some of the most innovative work being done. Each contribution clearly conveys the latest research with examples. Ideal for students of gender and sexuality studies, this topical and timely volume will be an invaluable resource to all those with an interest in sexuality studies.

Download or read book Transgressive Bodies written by Niall Richardson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the body has become one of the most popular areas of study in the arts, social sciences and humanities. Transgressive Bodies offers an examination of a variety of non-normative bodies and how they are represented in film, media and popular culture. Examining the non-normative body in a cultural studies context, this book reconsiders the concept of the transgressive body , establishing its status as a culturally mutable term, arguing that popular cultural representations create the transgressive or freak body and then proceed to either contain its threat or (s)exploit it. Through studies of extreme bodybuilding, obesity, disability and transsexed bodies, it examines the implications of such transgressive bodies for gender politics and sexuality. Transgressive Bodies engages with contemporary cultural debates, always relating these to concrete studies of media and cultural representations. This book will therefore appeal to scholars across a range of disciplines, including media and film studies, cultural studies, gender studies, sociology, sports studies and cultural theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social deviance—any behavior that violates a cultural norm—can involve something as major as crime or as minor as consistently and deliberately wearing lively mismatched socks. Whether a crime, a sin, or simply unique taste, what’s considered deviant at one time and place can change, as when extensive tattooing and "body art" evolved from a sideshow carnival spectacle to a nearly universal rite of passage within U.S. culture.

Download or read book The Weight of Images written by Katariina Kyrölä and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Weight of Images explores the ways in which media images can train their viewers’ bodies. Proposing a shift away from an understanding of spectatorship as being constituted by acts of the mind, this book favours a theorization of relations between bodies and images as visceral, affective engagements that shape our body image - with close attention to one particularly charged bodily characteristic in contemporary western culture: fat. The first mapping of the ways in which fat, gendered bodies are represented across a variety of media forms and genres, from reality television to Hollywood movies, from TV sitcoms to documentaries, from print magazine and news media to online pornography, The Weight of Images contends that media images of fat bodies are never only about fat; rather, they are about our relation to corporeal vulnerability overall. A ground-breaking volume, engaging with a rich variety of media and cultural texts, whilst examining the possibilities of critical auto-ethnography to unravel how body images take shape affectively between bodies and images, this book will appeal to scholars and students of sociology, media, cultural and gender studies, with interests in embodiment and affect.
Download or read book He is a Glutton and a Drunkard Deviant Consumption in the Hebrew Bible written by Rebekah Welton and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ‘He is a Glutton and a Drunkard’: Deviant Consumption in the Hebrew Bible Rebekah Welton uses interdisciplinary approaches to explore the social and ritual roles of food and alcohol in Late Bronze Age to Persian-period Syro-Palestine (1550 BCE–400 BCE). This contextual backdrop throws into relief episodes of consumption deemed to be excessive or deviant by biblical writers. Welton emphasises the social networks of the household in which food was entangled, arguing that household animals and ritual foodstuffs were social agents, challenging traditional understandings of sacrifice. For the first time, the accusation of being a ‘glutton and a drunkard’ (Deut 21:18-21) is convincingly re-interpreted in its alimentary and socio-ritual contexts.

Download or read book The Feeder written by Jennifer Jackson Berry and published by Yesyes Books. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Women's Studies. Body Positive. THE FEEDER by Jennifer Jackson Berry is a book of the body--an unblinking eye, a voice kicking open door after door on hushed topics of infertility, pregnancy loss, and how real bodies, in all their failings and flailings, seek and find pleasure. The poems are as secrets shared between good friends, so raw and dangerous, we can't look away. "IN THE FEEDER, Jennifer Jackson Berry gives us what we crave. In an authentic, incisive voice, she instructs:'... don't swat the wasp. / Let it happen. Let the sting happen.' And the sting does happen in these slicing poems of the body in delight and distress--poems of the fat girl speaking, poems of infertility, of sex and more sex, of debilitating loss. Berry delivers what so many others only strive for: the devouring of what's gone bad and the opening up of each remaining body to see it glisten."--Jan Beatty

Download or read book The Paraphilias written by J. Paul Fedoroff and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the thousands of papers and books about problematic sexual behaviors, most focus solely on sex crimes or so-called "hyper-sexuality" or "sexual addiction." Together, these publications present a grim and pessimistic prognosis for anyone who has unusual sexual interests of any type. This book challenges that view by providing a more informed and balanced review of what is known and what is not known about unconventional sexual interests. It is based on approximately thirty years of experience by the author concerning the assessment and treatment of paraphilias and unconventional sexual interests. The Paraphilias: Changing Suits in the Evolution of Sexual Interest Paradigms examines current and past perspectives concerning unconventional sexual interests associated with both criminal and non-criminal activities. Extensively referenced, it challenges the dogma that sexual interests are immutably determined during a single critical period and are thereafter unchangeable. The book provides extensive case histories and tables summarizing over 100 paraphilias and the latest research regarding them. It also reviews diagnostic criteria for the paraphilias. Analyses of current and past paradigms are presented together with new ways to understand, investigate, and provide meaningful and effective assistance to people with paraphilias. It is written for mental health clinicians and specialists in the fields of sexology and forensic psychiatry and psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since I moved into my new flat, I’ve been obsessed with my neighbour to the right, Eric. Every time I leave my front door, I hope to bump into him. And whenever I’m at home, I wonder what he’s up to in the apartment right next door to me and if he thinks about me too. ‘Fat’ doesn’t quite cut it; he’s huge.

He has a sadness hanging around him, though. Perhaps that’s what fascinates me most. He’s a tragic mystery, just begging to be unraveled. Today, after cooking up a plan to invite him over for a meal, perhaps I'll get the chance to do just that. Uncover who he really is, beneath that huge and slightly glum exterior. Figure out if perhaps we can be neighbours with a whole lot of benfits instead... *** This explicit love story features a shy & inexperienced ssbhm (supersized big handsome man) and a slightly less shy ffa (female fat admirer) who can't wait to seduce him with a mountain of festive food, before taking all he's got to give, hard and unprotected.
