Book excerpt: The Seven Sexes is almost entirely dedicated to the cynicism of nature's prime conman: homo sapiens. The sheer variety of these stories is such that it is difficult to believe they all derive from the same source. Capped by a hilarious piece of nonsense in which a has-been producer cons the seven variable sexes of Venus into starring in a 'typical' Hollywood love epic, the results defy description . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sex appeal is something that anyone can learn with coaching and practice . . . [It] has more to do with how men and women sit, stand, walk, and dress and the way they use their hands, voice, and facial expressions than it does with physical beauty." --Eva Margolies Learn how to be more attractive and self-confident without relying on rhinoplasty, the latest diet du jour, or a different cup size with this seven-day guide on how to attract the best that life has to offer.

This book was released on 2001-07-02 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's obvious why only men develop prostate cancer and why only women get ovarian cancer. But it is not obvious why women are more likely to recover language ability after a stroke than men or why women are more apt to develop autoimmune diseases such as lupus. Sex differences in health throughout the lifespan have been documented. Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health begins to snap the pieces of the puzzle into place so that this knowledge can be used to improve health for both sexes. From behavior and cognition to metabolism and response to chemicals and infectious organisms, this book explores the health impact of sex (being male or female, according to reproductive organs and chromosomes) and gender (one's sense of self as male or female in society). Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health discusses basic biochemical differences in the cells of males and females and health variability between the sexes from conception throughout life. The book identifies key research needs and opportunities and addresses barriers to research. Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health will be important to health policy makers, basic, applied, and clinical researchers, educators, providers, and journalists-while being very accessible to interested lay readers.

Download or read book 7 Sexes the Origin of Man written by Sri Sunkara Sankacharya and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2023-04-12 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sri Sanyassian Sunkara Sankacharya Amazing, shocking, overwhelming, fascinating, intriguing. Concepts which have eluded clear expression for thousands of years. Where did the race originate? Why are we here? Does Human personality survive the Death of the Body? Where will we be after Death? What is the purpose of the life experience? What to believe? Who has the Truth? Where is the evidence? “What is the Correct Philosophy”? 7 Sexes is not for the timid, or the easily offended. It is not the intent to give offence, however the contents are outside of one’s Educational experience, beyond Orthodox, Institutional Teachings. The Biblical Saviour taught, “Seek the Truth”, Mahatma Ghandi taught, “Hang on to Truth”, Sri Sunkara, Spiritual Philosopher of the age delivers, “Herein the Truth to set you Free.” The controversial author of “VEDANTA – Bhagavad- Gita 2000” and “ASK – Were you there?” asked “The Tree of Knowledge, How did ‘It’ start?” The Spirit in the Tree responded: “Out of Africa” they say. Nay! Nay, Nay, Tree does sway. Long afore, before any Country, world or Galaxy were; Far Beyond the Physical you will find Humanity’s Self-starter. Science, State & Religion, Restrict belief, leading to Disaster; Empowering, Feeding Confusion’s Charter.” Today’s Belief Systems offer several choices, none of which withstand the scrutiny of time. The youth are offered a God a Supreme Male Being, Darwin’s theory of Evolution from an Ape, a Science of Big Bang from a Black Hole or an end to physical Life leading to Nothingness. Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, internationally acclaimed Medium/Theosopher wrote 1,550 pages in a Doctrine, representing over 632,000 words. The dreaded word, SEX, appears three times. If mankind is not a race immersed in sexuality, then what is it? Knowledge of the complexities of the Spiritual Rounds, Rings, Chains and Sub races will not make the AIDS virus go away, nor solve the personal problems of the potential Suicide, nor bring you who read these words enlightenment or happiness. Sri Sunkara provides indisputable Evidence to support the Spiritual Reality of Existence; an intelligent fact based cosmic sense alternative to the Status Quo. Now Revealed to the outer world; the Hidden history of the ancient race of human Species. Be Free; armed with Perennial Wisdom, loaded with Truth, an exciting path for man’s exploration & discovery. Sunkara has no side agenda, no mortal ally, holds no specific group in awe, not affiliated with anyone, no vested interests to please; Spirit speaks directly to issues which affect us all; truthfully, candidly, where none have dared to tread.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Seven Powerful Secrets of Emotional Sex will reveal to you that the greatest discoveries in sex are not found in the path of sex but in the emotional connectors which lead to sex. These emotional connectors of religion, culture, relationships, and attraction are what constitutes the darker side of sex, and the sexual energy within us is what perpetuates the inner beauty to be reflected outwards. We have always been speaking on behalf of sex; we have never allowed sex to speak on its own. The Seven Powerful Secrets of Emotional Sex is an attempt in this direction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminating the dark side of the erotic, these interwoven stories explore obsession, violence, and the thin line between sex and death. Under a Mediterranean sun a man searches for the Temple of Zeus as his wife awaits her stalker; a sex worker at an illegal fetish club contemplates her options; a strike spirals out of control with eerie consequences; and a conflict with noisy neighbours reaches theatrical heights. Driven by lust, greed and revenge, chillingly calm or maddened by rage, Patricia Duncker's characters use every tool at their disposal to get what they want. Unapologetically disturbing and provocative like the B movies that inspired them, Seven Tales of Sex and Death holds up a mirror to humanity at its most flawed, ruthless and seductive.

Book excerpt: A newlywed couple is cursed with an unsexy fate in this “fun, lively read [with] lots of humour and lots of laughs” (The French Village Diaries). Sex isn’t everything. At least, that’s what rock singer Casey and drummer Alex tell themselves when they are strangely unable to consummate their marriage on their wedding night. Or the following night. Or, in fact, any night. They simply can’t do it anymore, and it’s not for lack of trying. Ever more inventive and increasingly desperate when tried-and-tested strategies fail them, Casey and Alex experiment with every trick of the trade, with accessories and other aids—even sex therapy. But it’s as though they’ve been cursed. Will their love and friendship prove strong enough to withstand the trials and tribulations of a sexless marriage? Join Casey and Alex on a wild ride of self-discovery, love, laughter, and tears, where friends old and new produce a twist in the tale that will leave you breathless. “Hysterical . . . A true romantic comedy, and one for your summer reading list!” —Chick Lit Plus
