This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work of constructive theology examines human sexuality in light of Christian faith and doctrine. Jensen moves beyond the hot-button social debates about sexual orientation and sexual practices to look for healing. The seven chapters consider Scripture and sex; the connections between the triune, covenantal God and human sexuality; Christ's incarnation and resurrection as affirming the beauty of flesh; eschatology and sexual identity; the ramifications of the Lord's Supper for human sexuality; vocation and Christian callings to marriage, celibacy, and singleness; and sexual ethics.
Download or read book Sexing the Body written by Anne Fausto-Sterling and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now updated with groundbreaking research, this award-winning classic examines the construction of sexual identity in biology, society, and history. Why do some people prefer heterosexual love while others fancy the same sex? Is sexual identity biologically determined or a product of convention? In this brilliant and provocative book, the acclaimed author of Myths of Gender argues that even the most fundamental knowledge about sex is shaped by the culture in which scientific knowledge is produced. Drawing on astonishing real-life cases and a probing analysis of centuries of scientific research, Fausto-Sterling demonstrates how scientists have historically politicized the body. In lively and impassioned prose, she breaks down three key dualisms -- sex/gender, nature/nurture, and real/constructed -- and asserts that individuals born as mixtures of male and female exist as one of five natural human variants and, as such, should not be forced to compromise their differences to fit a flawed societal definition of normality.

Book excerpt: Using humor and a contemporary voice, HUMAN SEXUALITY: FROM CELLS TO SOCIETY, International Edition engages readers to acquire a greater knowledge of their bodies, their values, and their relationships with others.

Working from a multidisciplinary perspective, the author's approach is accessible to anyone, even without a background in biology or critical thinking, and allows readers to see how human sexuality interrelates with psychology, biology, health, law, media, religion, and other topics that at first glance seem unrelated.
Download or read book Fundamentals of Human Sexuality written by Richard D. McAnulty and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fundamentals paperback text presents the unifying theme of physical and psychological sexual health while encouraging students to think critically and make healthy decisions about their own sexual attitudes. By combining the introductory and research methods chapters and the two chapters on sexually transmitted diseases, this briefer version contains two fewer chapters than the comprehensive McAnulty/Burnette text. In addition, a 15-question review test has been added to the end of each chapter. The primary goal of this text is to promote sexual health and help students understand and make healthy decisions within a framework that integrates physiological, psychological, and social aspects of sexuality. McAnulty and Burnette take a scholarly, research-oriented approach, but present material within a "friendly advisor" framework and writing style, highlighting health issues and diversity. Throughout the text, students are repeatedly challenged to critically analyze and apply information to their own lives in an effort to make the readings relevant and, therefore, easier to learn and retain.
Download or read book Sexual Fluidity written by Lisa M. Diamond and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is 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 M. 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.

Download or read book Human Sexuality written by Simon LeVay and published by Sinauer Associates Incorporated. This book was released on 2002 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexuality is a central but highly controversial aspect of human nature. In this new undergraduate textbook, Simon LeVay and Sharon Valente aim to help students understand the diversity of human sexual expression as well as the various perspectives from which sexuality can be viewed. These perspectives range from biology and medicine, evolutionary theory, cognitive science, social psychology, feminism, and cross cultural studies to moral and political discourse. Rather than attempting to present cut and dried answers to contentious or unresolved sexual questions, the authors present solid data and a multiplicity of interpretive viewpoints. This approach helps students develop critical thinking, make informed decisions about their own sex lives, and contribute constructively and non-judgmentally to the social debate on sexual issues. The CD-ROM included with each text contains: learning objectives; study questions; self-quiz; discussion questions; key terms; glossary; and animations and activities.
