By: Gail Hawkes
If you've ever wondered about the oft-discussed ancient Greek practice of sex between grown men and young boys or self-mortification in early Christianity, you will love reading Gail Hawkes' "Sex and Pleasure in Western Culture." Investigating attitudes towards sex throughout history from abstinence to witch hunts, the Old Testament to Cosmo, Hawkes shows us the fluidity of sexual norms in the eyes of society, while also demonstrating that some anxieties and attempts to control sexual behavior remain constant.
This book is a must-read for any naughty girl with an interest in sexual politics and the history of desire.
