Download or read book The Beauty of Fetish written by Steve Diet Goedde and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Goedde's images the very stillness of the air is filled with anticipation, capturing a sliver of a story, perhaps something very private and magical. The viewer wonders what came before that moment and what pleasures lie ahead...but alas is left wondering. These photos linger in one's mind like a fragment from an erotic dream". In her description of his images, fetish diva Midori touches on the very core of his fetish photography: the subtlety with which he portrays beautiful women and the eroticism of the fetish world without ever being too obvious, let alone vulgar, as so many other fetish photographers can be. Nor does he indulge in exaggerated manipulation of the props of models. He quite simply captures the grace of his subject and lets its beauty speak for itself. In the scenes he sets, in his stills and portraits of impeccable style and subtle atmosphere, he never strays from the path dictated by the elegance and beauty of fetish fashion. What is more, in addition to the skilful arrangements and portraits familiar to readers from the first volume, he has also included some witty color snapshots taken during the shootings, whose unpolished aesthetic and directness have a vitality all their own.

Download or read book Female Fetishism written by Lorraine Gamman and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aura of passivity that has for centuries surrounded female sexuality in popular culture, psychology, and literature has, in recent years, dissipated. And yet fetishism, one of the most intriguing and mysterious forms of sexual expression, is still cast as an almost exclusively male domain. Most psychoanalytic thought, for instance, excludes the very possibility of female fetishism. The first book on the subject, Female Fetishism engagingly documents women's involvement in this form of sexuality. Lorraine Gamman and Merja Makinen describe a wide array of female fetishisms, from the obsessional behavior of pop fans (and pop performers such as Madonna) to fetishism in advertising to women's involvement in the world of dress clubs and fetish magazines. The authors provide provocative evidence of food fetishism among women, arguing that many eating disorders are best understood from this perspective. A latter portion of the book includes a discussion of how feminists have treated the political and cultural significance of female fetishism.

Download or read book A Taste for the Beautiful written by Michael J. Ryan and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In A Taste for the Beautiful, Michael Ryan, one of the world's leading authorities on animal behavior, tells the remarkable story of how he and other scientists have taken up where Darwin left off, transforming our understanding of sexual selection and shedding new light on animal and human behavior. Drawing on cutting-edge science, Ryan explores the key questions: Why do animals perceive certain traits as beautiful and others not? Do animals have an inherent sexual aesthetic and, if so, where is it rooted? Ryan argues that the answers lie in the brain--particularly of females, who act as biological puppeteers, spurring the development of beautiful traits in males."--Back cover
Download or read book If the Future is a Fetish written by Sarah Sgro and published by YesYes Books. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. LGBTQIA Studies. Women's Studies. In her debut poetry collection, IF THE FUTURE IS A FETISH, Sgro explores a vision of motherhood severed from conventional ideas of partnership and family. Between tales of fraught monogamy and fleeting first fucks, she depicts the mother as a figure steeped in loss, depression, and dynamic sexual identity, bearing memory and trauma as their own kind of offspring. Collaging words from plant life experts, adolescent psychologists, and scholars, Sgro reckons with a longing for the future that is invested in queer desire, maternal drives, and the spaces in between. "Why are the poet and the poem so toxic and damned? Because they are carriers, processing liquid flushed from pleasure and damage. Sgro is opening space inside toxicity. When the space is born an impure baby, the poet wants the baby. The baby is a fetus, a fetish, a trauma-processing plant, a poem. The poems within IF THE FUTURE IS A FETISH rage, pull back, smash down. It's an open system. Sgro's thrilling, monstrous poems are coming to touch you."--Catherine Wagner "For trauma survivors, our futures eroticize that which we lived through, scored as we are by our bodies' pasts. Survival must affirm that future. In IF THE FUTURE IS A FETISH, we experience a gravid violence, Sgro's speaker the queer anorexic mother pulsating meaning into 'basement operas' and 'tenderilous' growth. This is a psychosexual novel-in-verse, one displeased with its phenomenologies but chanting them anyway. It wretches in Plathian disgust; coats its throat in 2 mg of Xanax; and consumes its daughters with Goya-level anguish. Paperclips itch under wrist skin, women soak through their True Religion jeans, an assemblage of lovers--J., A., M., and X.--function as a Greek chorus of S.'s sexual failings; and still, 'the world returns like a dog to its vomit.' Rarely do I read a collection so succinct in its viscera, where there is a math to every gory line. How lucky am I to have read Sgro who writes with annihilating purpose about the body in absence, violation, vexation, abundance, and martyrdom. This debut collection is a lingual maelstrom, its music a steady waltz over the future's piss."--Natalie Eilbert

Book excerpt: A fascinating survey of the enduring human love affair with the exotic and the strange, and its impact on Western culture Exotic explores our obsession with the lure of distant lands and their promise of the weird and wonderful, the beautiful and grotesque. Through a host of evocative images, this book shows how the absorption of 'the foreign,' through arts, design, architecture, and other cultural elements, has consistently enriched Western society, contributing to it cultural dynamism and artistic energy. Exotic's focus is especially relevant to the modern globalized world in which our engagement with cultures and traditions from around the globe is easier – and potentially more fraught – than ever before.
