Download or read book Yes Means Yes written by Jaclyn Friedman and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking feminist classic dismantles the way we view rape in our culture and replaces it with a genuine understanding and respect for female sexual pleasure. In the original edition, feminist, political, and activist writers alike presented their ideas for a paradigm shift from the "No Means No" model--and the result was the groundbreaking shift to today's affirmative consent model ("Yes Means Yes," as coined by this book). With a timely new introduction, refreshed cover, and the timeless contributions of authors from Kate Harding to Jill Filipovic, Yes Means Yes brings to the table a dazzling variety of perspectives and experiences focused on the theory that educating all people to value female sexuality and pleasure leads to viewing women differently, and ending rape. Yes Means Yes has radical and far-reaching effects: from teaching men to treat women as collaborators and not conquests, encouraging men and women that women can enjoy sex instead of being shamed for it, and ultimately, that our children can inherit a world where rape is rare and swiftly punished.

Download or read book Rape Is Rape Is Rape Is Rape No Means No written by Renee Drummond-Brown and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape, Is Rape; No Means No, by Reneé Drummond-Brown, sheds light on sexual intercourse carried out forcibly, and/or with a person incapable of granting permission thus making the subject of rape extremely touchy, and victims left-torn with guilt and shame. This book captures physical and psychological torment at the highest-level bringing awareness to the blind who want to maintain the status quo by not challenging the broke system. Drummond-Brown's poetry book claps back on the status quo without mincing words. The author is very vocal and direct in showing the unlawful sex acts brilliantly depicted in poetic form coupled with symbolic pictorial illustrations that tell the story from the rape victim's perspective, who oftentimes is silent and uncomfortable in expressing such ugliness committed on their vulnerable bodies. The book aims to help survivors of sexual assault and human trafficking by placing accountability and blame where it belongs rather than silencing innocent victims of this outrageous violation carried out by men, women, and yes, even cops, teachers, and priest who are often portrayed as "the good guys."

Download or read book Sexual Consent written by Milena Popova and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to issues of sexual consent, covering key strands of feminist thought, how sexual consent is negotiated in practice, the influence of popular culture, and more. The #MeToo movement has focused public attention on the issue of sexual consent. People of all genders, from all walks of life, have stepped forward to tell their stories of sexual harassment and violation. In a predictable backlash, others have taken to mass media to inquire plaintively if "flirting" is now forbidden. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series offers a nuanced introduction to sexual consent by a writer who is both a scholar and an activist on this issue. It has become clear from discussions of the recent high-profile cases of Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and others that there is no clear agreement over what constitutes consent or non-consent and how they are expressed and perceived in sexual situations. This book presents key strands of feminist thought on the subject of sexual consent from across academic and activist communities and covers the history of research on consent in such fields as psychology and feminist legal studies. It discusses how sexual consent is negotiated in practice, from "No means no" to "Yes means yes," and describes what factors might limit individual agency in such negotiations. It examines how popular culture, including pornography, romance fiction, and sex advice manuals, shapes our ideas of consent; explores the communities at the forefront of consent activism; and considers what meaningful social change in this area might look like. Going beyond the conventional cisgender, heterosexual norm, the book lists additional resources for those seeking to improve their practice of consent, survivors of sexual violence, and readers who want to understand contemporary debates on this issue in more depth.

Download or read book NoMeansNo written by Jason Lamb and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They were unlike any other band in the punk scene they called home. NoMeansNo started in the basement of the family home of brothers Rob and John Wright in 1979. For the next three decades, they would add and then replace a guitar player, sign a record deal with Alternative Tentacles and tour the world. All along the way, they kept their integrity, saying "NO" to many mainstream opportunities. It was for this reason the band (intentionally) never became a household name, but earned the respect and love of thousands of fans around the world, including some who became big rock stars themselves. They were expertly skilled musicians playing a new kind of punk: intelligent, soulful, hilarious, and complex. They were also really nice Canadian dudes. NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion is the fully authorized oral and visual history of this highly influential and enigmatic band which has never been told before now. Author Jason Lamb obtained exclusive access to all four former members and interviewed hundreds of people in their orbit, from managers and roadies to fellow musicians, friends, and family members. The result is their complete story, from the band's inception in 1979 to their retirement in 2016, along with hundreds of photos, posters, and memorabilia, much of which has never been seen publicly before. For established fans, this book serves as a "love letter" to their favorite group and provides many details previously unknown. For those curious about the story and influence of NoMeansNo, it reveals an eye-opening tale of how a punk band could be world class musicians while truly "doing it themselves." Their impact and importance cannot be overstated, and NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion is the essential archive.

Download or read book No Means No written by Y. Taylor and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Whatever the example, children live and grow by that example.¿ No, Means NO! is a story that every child should hear, because child predators do not announce their arrival in a child¿s life. To the contrary, they strategically maneuver into children¿s lives in a very concealing and sly manner. They are camouflaged right before our very eyes. Many times, they remain in children¿s lives for a long time. (And even once is a long time.) It is up to us, as responsible adults, to let children know that if they are sexually abused, or fearful of being abused, they must tell someone. Children need to know that no matter what a predator says to make them not tell anyone, ¿TELL ANYWAY!¿ No, Means NO! was written to support children against sexual abuse and to support bonding between adults and children. Hopefully, this level of healthy bonding will support children enough to encourage them to speak out, if ever needed, against sexual abuse. About the Author Y. Taylor encourages the nurturing of children. She believes that, ideally, nurturing begins before birth. She understands that children¿s healthy minds play a large part concerning their successful development. It is her desire to encourage more adults to share significant time with young people. Taylor regards children¿s opinions with much contemplation. Through her simple stories, she attempts to capture voices and feelings of the younger population. Just as importantly, she hopes to encourage quality bonding time between youth and adults. A native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Taylor teaches and has served as an administrator of special education. Taylor is married and has two children. Her children have served as advisors for her stories.

Download or read book By No Means Equal written by William Wildblood and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-27 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the age of equality, which this book argues directly opposes the idea of the individual soul as a spiritual reality. Equality is the rock on which our modern Western liberal democracies are built. When we talk of Western values, this is the one that underlies the rest. But what if this rock is made of sand? By No Means Equal explores the idea of equality and suggests it is an ideological belief with no foundation in reality. It may seem a progressive belief from the political point of view, but in reality, its acceptance is spiritually damaging, with consequences for the evolution of the soul.

Download or read book Addressing Rape Reform in Law and Practice written by Susan Caringella and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive book on rape since Susan Brownmiller's Against Our Will and Susan Estrich's Real Rape, this volume probes every aspect of rape law and the discrepancies between ideal law (on the books) and real law (in action). Susan Caringella canvasses the success and failure of reform in the United States, as well as Australia, Britain, Canada, and New Zealand, and assesses alternative perspectives on rape reform, making use of theoretical models, court cases and statistical data. She uniquely delineates a creative model for change while addressing the discretion that undermines efforts at change. This includes charging the accused and plea bargaining, confronting a lack of transparency and accountability in implementing law, and acquiring funding for such changes.

Download or read book No One Could Know written by Kristan Gray and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surprisingly, No One Could Know is actually a funny book-at least in the beginning. Many have said, "I laughed, I cried, I got mad, and I even learned a little as I read your book." So, why is a book about abortion partially funny? I think that's just how life is sometimes-it's full of ups and downs, isn't it? Reasons for abortion vary, but I dare say a large number of abortions take place because of the very same reason I had mine-so no one would know what was done at an inconvenient time. I'm now going public with my experience of an abortion-and later, rape-because I believe there is someone out there who needs to read this and will be touched by what it contains. If you have never found yourself in such situations as I did, then maybe this book can help you to be of help to someone else. No One Could Know is engaging, thought-provoking, and informative. More importantly, it's a tool of recovery for those who walked the same road I did. When I chose abortion, I was a Christian, but I had no idea how astounding and full of grace, forgiveness, and love our awesome God is. Jesus Christ has truly set me free. I hope you experience His presence of "joy unspeakable and full of glory" as you relax and slip into my story with me, God, and a good cup of coffee.
