Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of human history, the garments women wore under their clothes were hidden. The earliest underwear provided warmth and protection. But eventually, women's undergarments became complex structures designed to shape their bodies to fit the fashion ideals of the time. In the modern era, undergarments are out in the open, from the designer corsets Madonna wore on stage to Beyoncé's pregnancy announcement on Instagram. This feminist exploration of women's underwear reveals the intimate role lingerie plays in defining women's bodies, sexuality, gender identity, and body image. It is a story of control and restraint but also female empowerment and self-expression. You will never look at underwear the same way again.

Download or read book Underneath It All written by Margo Candela and published by Kensington Publishing Corp.. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a traditional family, the last thing you can be is who you really are, but it's time for Jacqueline Sanchez to find the woman underneath it all. . . Everyone has their role. My mother is the martyr, my father the distant unapproachable figure, and Noel, with a few brief stints in jail, is considered misunderstood, not a handsome loser. Yolie is just outspoken, not a miserable bitter shrew, which would be her clinical diagnosis in the "real" world. And the rest of my brothers and sisters have problems that my parents consider normal, like bad marriages, unruly children, and too many bills. So is it a surprise that I'm considered the troublemaker of the family? Not happy at home? Move away for college. Hate your job? Find another one. Fallen out of lust, er, love with your husband? Divorce him. I, so far, am the anomaly--or flake--in the family because I'm vocal about how unnecessary it is to be unhappy, and how important it is to do something about it to change your circumstances (thank you, Zoloft!) If I had it my way, my whole family would be comparing dosages at the dinner table the way some families talk about sports or politics. . .

In Underneath it All... You're Naked, Sarah shares the beliefs, misconceptions and struggles that she dealt with for most of her marriage. This lack of sexual knowledge, belief that sex was naughty and that only "bad girls" enjoyed sex led Sarah's marriage down the wrong path.

While Sarah is not a licensed sex therapist, she has dedicated years in advancing her own sexual education to overcome her issues with sexual connection. She now teaches several classes a month and has worked with one-on-one with hundreds of Christian women to help them better understand their sexuality and overcome misconceptions or false beliefs about sex that have been causing problems in their marriages.

Book excerpt: My life is perfect. No, it really is. After the chaos in my house growing up, you can bet I’ve worked hard for all this perfection. I’ve got it all. A husband who’s as detail-oriented as I am, two great kids, a fantastic house that’s social media ready at all times. The only thing not-so-perfect is that I have a slight imperfection in my genes and that caused me to develop breast cancer in my 30s. I was not going to let a silly thing like genetics and cancer stop me. I was proactive and got that all taken care of before I got sick. A small bump in my perfect road. But that bump has become a massive sink hole when my breast implants are recalled, and I discover my husband has been going over his details with his girlfriend. In the blink of an eye, everything I’ve worked for is gone. I’m facing health crisis after health crisis, a failed marriage, and rebelling children. And to make matters worse, my only source of solace—my BRCA support group—has been infiltrated by a man. With everything exposed, there’s no way I can keep up this façade of perfection that’s defined my existence for so long. Maybe it’s time to consider that it’s what’s underneath it all that really matters.
