Book excerpt: The first installment in the new dark fantasy science fiction series set on a planet called Vulvar, where females rule and all males are enslaved to serve them. What if alien DNA was encoded in your genes and no one told you? Archaeology professor Tobias Hart once would have laughed at such a notion. Hart, orphaned as a small child when someone murdered his father and his mother disappeared without a trace, was reared by an aunt and uncle in upstate New York. Fortunately, after such a tragic beginning, Hart’s life is much improved these days. He’s recently completed a PhD at Princeton and received his first post in the academic world, a tenure-track appointment to teach at Stanford University. Hart is positive he is on his way to realizing his life’s dream, a tenured archaeology professorship at a prestigious university. Until he stops in southwest New Mexico to visit a Native American archaeology site on his way to the West Coast. There Hart’s life takes a most unexpected and dramatic turn. Camping overnight near some ancient cliff dwellings, Hart glimpses an alien spacecraft moments before the aliens abduct him. Soon he finds himself a captive on a strange, dystopian and barbaric planet where females rule and all males are slaves. As he struggles to figure out who abducted him and why, Hart becomes party to a shocking reunion with someone he hasn’t seen in over thirty years, his mother. She reveals that Vulvar is her home planet, and that Hart is half Vulvarian. Next she tells him the most disturbing thing of all. Over her objections, the powers that be have brought Hart to the alien world for use as breeding stock. Like all males on the planet Vulvar, Hart quickly finds himself enslaved, the property of a beautiful but ruthless Mistress. Just as Hart despairs and contemplates ending his own life over being used as a breeding animal and the other realities of the harsh life his captors have imposed on him, they offer him an opportunity to win his freedom. The group of physical, absentee Vulvarian divine entities need someone to find and recover a valuable ancient artifact. Because of his education and experience as an archaeologist, they deem Hart the only being on Vulvar qualified for the undertaking. The problem is they believe the artifact is hidden in the most remote and dangerous region on the planet. If Hart accepts the mission, he may not live to complete it. But, if he finds and recovers the artifact, the deities promise to return him home to Earth as a reward. Hart desperately wants to return home. He wants his life back. But with such an infinitesimal chance of success, is the opportunity at freedom they offer worth dying for?

This book was released on 2018-12-06 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes essential operative techniques that can be used to anatomically reconstruct the outer female genital in acquired deformities derived from ritual genital mutilation/cutting, and diseases causing similar deforming defects. Following an introduction with general insights on the topic, the main chapters deal with basic considerations and special anatomical information. With the help of high-quality videos and images, the reader receives detailed instructions on clitoral and vulvar reconstruction with techniques invented by the author, named the NMCS-procedure, the OD-flap and the aOAP-flap procedures. The book is rounded out with chapters describing postoperative care and how to manage complications. The integrity of their outer genitals is important for patients’ physical and psychological wellbeing. As such, the vulva is now receiving increasing attention and will likely continue to grow in importance in plastic surgery. The author, who has developed outstanding procedures for vulvar and clitoral reconstruction over the years, shares his considerable experience and hopes to highlight the importance of these methods to overcome the burden of female genital mutilation/cutting.

Download or read book It Hurts Down There written by Christine Labuski and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracks the medical emergence and treatment of vulvar pain conditions in order to understand why so many US women are misinformed about their sexual bodies. How does a woman describe a part of her body that much of society teaches her to never discuss? It Hurts Down There analyzes the largest known set of qualitative research data about vulvar pain conditions. It tells the story of one hundred women who struggled with this dilemma as they sought treatment for chronic and unexplained vulvar pain. Christine Labuski argues that the medical condition of vulvar pain cannot be adequately understood without exposing and interrogating cultural attitudes about female genitalia. The authors dual positioning as cultural anthropologist and former nurse practitioner strengthens her argument that discourses about healthy vulvas naturalize and reproduce heteronormative associations between genitalia, sex, and gender. This is an empirically engaged, ethnographically rich interpretation of genital pain in a cross section of womenbut it is also so much more. Christine Labuski has a deep understanding of both the anatomical biomedical construction of female genitalia and manifestations of physical pain and suffering, which she combines with a marvelous cultural analysis of how entangled these biological facts are with the contemporary culture of female loathing and self-loathing.

Download or read book Female Genital Cosmetic Surgery written by Sarah M. Creighton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the cultural and economic drivers of the growing phenomenon of FGCS, written by cross-disciplinary experts, this book challenges the concept of individual consumer choice in FGCS: a decision that is rarely exercised in a socio-cultural vacuum. Four distinct aspects of FGCS are covered: variations in female genital anatomy; surgical techniques and evidence; historical contexts and ethical dilemmas; norm-critical understandings to inform professional responses. Rendering philosophical critiques accessible, and exposing dubious social values that underpin the practice, this text is crucial in driving a broader understanding of FGCS as a cultural phenomenon of our times. Only with a fuller understanding of the multiple perspectives of FGCS, can there be sensible alternatives for women and girls psychologically troubled by their natural, healthy form. Offering explanations and interventions at individual, institutional and societal levels, this text will be valued by both professional and non-professional audiences.

This book was released on 2024-08-09 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Persistent infection with oncogenic types of human papillomavirus (HPV) is commonly detected in the pre-cancerous lesions and invasive cancers of female lower genital organs. Currently, over 200 HPV genotypes have been identified. With the knowledge of HPV in female genital tracts infection and carcinogenesis advanced, HPV testing has recently been recommended as one of the primary screening methods for cervical cancer prevention. However, understanding HPV at a systematic level is lacking and disconnected. For example, the development and evaluation of new HPV vaccines face challenges related to efficacy, safety, and scalability. Viral persistence mechanisms and immune interaction among HPV subtypes require in-depth molecular and cellular studies. Addressing the long-term effectiveness of vaccination is another challenge. How bridge the gap between research and health policy for translating scientific findings into actionable guidelines is also difficult. This Research Topic aims to offer a forum for discussing new discoveries on HPV carcinogenesis, viral interaction, immune interaction, immune balance and escape among HPV viral subtypes and with other viruses, immune intervention for HPV infections; as well as updated information on cervical cancer screening/prevention guideline, and clinical management. On the global scale, it is of particular interest under-addressed and different levels of HPV research that face key challenges including basic science research, translational research, epidemiological research, and implementation sciences. We welcome manuscripts focused on the most recent advances in HPV or HPV-related women's lower genital malignancies, in regard to cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. The subtopics include, but are not limited to the following: 1. HPV carcinogenesis, viral interaction, viral persistence, populational features of HPV infection (Review, Original Research, and Clinical Research). 2. Cervical and anal cancer screening/prevention by HPV testing, HPV self-testing, and HPV testing performance (Original Research). 3. Discoveries of HPV carcinogenesis, HPV genotyping, immune balance and escape among HPV viral subtypes and with other viruses, immune intervention for HPV infection in women (Original Research). 4. Advances and current status of HPV vaccine and performance of HPV vaccine worldwide (Review and Original Research). 5. Advances and updates in clinical management and guidelines in HPV-positive women (Review and Original Research). 6. Socioeconomic, cultural, and demographic features linked to HPV infections, female lower genital cancer development and prevention (Original Research). Please note: manuscripts consisting solely of bioinformatics or computational analysis of public genomic or transcriptomic databases which are not accompanied by validation (independent cohort or biological validation in vitro or in vivo) are out of scope for this section and will not be accepted as part of this Research Topic.
