Book excerpt: This coming-of-age story, set against the backdrop of the mid-1990s Midwest, follows Cassandra, a high schooler whose big dreams clash with her family’s conservative expectations, as she comes into her own while navigating the complexities of teenage sex and dating. Fourteen-year-old Cassandra Economos doesn’t fit the mold of her traditional Greek family. She’s always been a good kid, but lately she’s begun to question how much influence her relatives’ expectations should really have on her life. Cassie doesn’t understand why anyone would want to stay in Sterling, IL when there’s a whole world out there to explore and experience. She wonders why her brother Chris gets showered in love and affection after becoming a father at 25, when she and her sister, Vanessa, aren’t even allowed to date before they’re his age. And she’d rather go see Nirvana play live in Chicago than attend her homecoming dance. Perfect for fans of Now Is Not the Time to Panic and The Perks of Being a Wallflower, this series-starter traces the social entanglements of the Economos sisters and their friends — from bodice-rippers and bad sex to secret boyfriends and matters of consent — through Cassie’s diary entries from 1993 to ’97.
Download or read book Sexually Woke written by Susan Hardwick-Smith and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if it were possible to have the best sex of your life at 40, or even 70? With over twenty years of experience as a highly regarded physician and founder of the largest all-female-staffed OB/GYN practice in the nation, Dr. Susan Hartwick-Smith, also known as Dr. Susan, presents Sexually Woke, a surprisingly frank and thought-provoking look at midlife sexuality. This optimistic new perspective is based not only on wisdom gained from sharing intimate stories with thousands of patients, but also on her own very candid journey as a menopausal woman navigating life post-divorce. Through a unique and comprehensive research study and subsequent interviews, Dr. Susan outlines the misconception and conditioning around our attitudes to mature sex and shares the intimate secrets of a cohort of women who have discovered the path to a vibrant, deeply connected and intimated sex life after 40. These women are the mysterious "Sexually Woke", and their surprising secrets are now available to all of us. Through her own story, as well as the raw and uncensored interviews with study participants that include the "Sexually Woke", Dr. Susan re-frames the second half of life as an open field of possibility in which to play, explore, and finally be your true self. While openly discussing our tremendous struggles-with kids, aging parents, changing careers, divorce, death, abuse, sexual trauma, and personal illness-she teaches us that the wisdom of midlife allows us to look inward in order to recognize the importance of sex in making our lives whole. A reawakened sex life, an essential step towards living life to its fullest, is no longer the secret knowledge of a few outliers. The path to deep sexual connection and satisfaction in midlife and beyond is available to anyone who is ready to commit and willing to embark on the journey with Dr. Susan and Sexually Woke.

Download or read book Sexy At 70 written by Eva Chapman and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-05 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexy at 70, A Spiritual Journey, is an account of how Eva Maria Chapman emerged from the doldrums of menopause, rediscovered her sexuality and became a rampant flirt and party raver in her 60s. The late flowering and concomitant inner struggle with vanity and aging has led her to greater spiritual acceptance of who she actually is. For most of her life she regarded her sexual self as sinful; to be spiritual meant to be saint-like and sexless. This book describes the struggle to reconcile these opposites. Along the way she tackled the demons of three major illnesses, including a rare blood cancer, and recounts how this deepened her self-awareness. Eva has dared come out as a sexy woman in her 70s.
Download or read book Finding Male Sexuality written by MR Carl E Stevens Jr and published by Selfassource. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men today are at a sexual and relationship crossroads. The choice is to continue to live your relationship and sexual life according to the standard narrative of relating, which is an extension of the patriarchal and troubadour-based romanticism or to acknowledge how we really feel and move towards our sexual and relationship potential. The choice is to take a stand in saving our families, children, and communities or to continue contributing to a system and mode of behavior that spirals us downward toward moral ruin. This book is about selected parts of my personal journey to expand my sexual awareness. It's about how my socially accepted expectations of male sexuality prevented me from having completely fulfilling sexual experiences for much of my adult life and how these same expectations prevented me from understanding the women I interacted with. After being introduced to the art of tantra and sacred sexuality, I found myself being opened to deeper and deeper encounters with my lovers. These deep encounters became lessons that I would incorporate into my sexual and relationship life going forward.

Download or read book Awakenings written by Bernard Koloski and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most often repeated anecdotes about the direction of literary studies over the past three decades concerns a graduate student who complained of reading Kate Chopin's The Awakening in three classes and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick in none. But Chopin has not always been featured in the literary curriculum. Though she achieved national success in her lifetime (1850--1904) as a writer of Louisiana "local color" fiction, after her death her work fell into obscurity until 1969, when Norwegian literary scholar Per Seyersted published The Complete Works of Kate Chopin and sparked a remarkable American literary revival. Chopin soon became a major presence in the canon, and today every college textbook surveying American literature contains a Chopin short story, her novel The Awakening, or an excerpt from it. In this unique work, twelve prominent Chopin scholars reflect on their parts in the Kate Chopin revival and its impact on their careers. A generation ago, against powerful odds, many of them staked their reputations on the belief -- now fully validated -- that Chopin is one of America's essential writers. These scholars energetically sponsored Chopin's works in the 1970s and 1980s and encouraged reading, studying, and teaching Chopin. They wrote books and articles about her, gave talks about her, offered interviews to newspapers and magazines, taught her works in their classes, and urged their colleagues to do the same, helping to build a network of teachers, students, editors, journalists, librarians, and others who continue to promote Chopin's work. Throughout, these essays stress several elements vital to the revival's success. Timing proved critical, as the rise of the women's movement and the emergence of new sexual norms in the 1960s helped set an ideal context for Chopin in the United States and abroad in the 1970s and 1980s. Seyersted's biography of Chopin and his accurate texts of her entire oeuvre allowed scholars to quickly publish their analyses of her work. Popular media -- including Redbook, New York Times, and PBS -- took notice of Chopin and advanced her work outside the scholarly realm. But in the final analysis, as the contributors point out, Kate Chopin's irresistible writing itself made her revival possible. Highly personal, at times amusing, and always thought provoking, these revealing recollections and new critical insights offer a fascinating firsthand account of a decisive moment in American literary history.

Download or read book Shocking Cinema of the 70s written by Julian Petley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection focuses on 1970s films from a variety of countries, and from the marginal to the mainstream, which, by tackling various 'difficult' subjects, have proved to be controversial in one way or another. It is not an uncritical celebration of the shocking and the subversive but an attempt to understand why this decade produced films which many found shocking, and what it was that made them shocking to certain audiences. To this end it includes not only films that shocked the conventionally minded, such as hard core pornography, but also those that outraged liberal opinion – for example, Death Wish and Dirty Harry. The book does not simply cast a critical light on a series of controversial films which have been variously maligned, misinterpreted or just plain ignored, but also assesses how their production values, narrative features and critical receptions can be linked to the wider historical and social forces that were dominant during this decade. Furthermore, it explores how these films resonate in our own historical moment – replete as it is with shocks of all kinds.

Book excerpt: Rose Rouse, a journalist, and Suzanne Noble, a serial entrepreneur– created Advantages of Age out of a conversation in a hot tub in 2016. ‘We didn’t like how we were being depicted in the media as we got older.’ Advantages of Age is a social enterprise designed to passionately challenge the prevailing negative stereotypes around ageing. No, we’re not all grandparents, some of us are over 50, single and childless. We don’t wish to be defined by the reductive headlines we see around us. We are writers, filmmakers, singers, press officers, death doulas, psychotherapists and so much more. We are not all retired. We surf, play tennis, lift weights. We have sex, we don’t have sex. We have partners, we don’t have partners. We’re an eclectic bunch. In this collection of essays gathered from seven years of commissioning, AoAers share their thoughts on life, love, sex, death, adventures on their terms, lockdown and everything in between. ‘We hope we’re doing our bit to re-define and re-frame what getting old means.’

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 Shameless written by Pamela Madsen and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A funny, sexy, and wildly entertaining look at the rewards of fully realized desire in the life of one ordinary woman. At 43 years old, Pamela Madsen was happily married to the man she fell in love with at 17. She was the mother of two sons and had a successful career as a nationally known advocate for fertility issues. But she felt a growing sexual restlessness and yearning that wouldn't let up. And though Pamela loved her husband and didn't want to have an affair, she knew deep down that she needed more, much more. In Shameless, she tells the story of how she found it—and not only kept her marriage intact but made it stronger than ever. In this fearless memoir, Pamela tells the story of her search for sexual, personal, and spiritual wholeness. She explores, in riveting detail, what she experienced at the hands of sexual healers, men who brought her untold pleasure (and became her close friends in the process). But this is not just another sex book: Shameless is also an account of how Pamela's journey healed her issues with food and body image and most important, helped her weave the many roles that she played—daughter, friend, partner, mother—into one fully integrated person. It is a story about a woman falling in love with herself and a call to other women to do the same.
