This systematic study of the nature and moral significance of human sexuality explores in detail the major issues regarding sexual morality. Divided into two main parts, Part One presents a critical analysis of the key conceptions of human sexuality, including:* the view of sex as bound up with procreation and marriage* the romantic approach to sex* the understanding of sex as body language* the hedonist or â¬~plainâ¬" sex view - the traditional distinction between natural and unnatural sex, and the notion of sexual perversion.Part Two discusses the most pertinent issues in sexual morality, such as monogamy, adultery, prostitution, rape, homosexuality, paedophilia and sexual harassment.In this stimulating and often controversial book, the author argues for a plainer view of sex and demonstrates that many of the prohibitions that make up conventional sexual morality cannot withstand critical scrutiny and should therefore be rejected. He claims that there are no sexual ethics, since sex has no particular moral significance.

This comprehensive overview of research, issues, and theories relating to sexual orientation, behavior, and identity by experts in various disciplines is unique in providing both historical perspectives and a synthesis of the recent advances in understanding homosexuality and heterosexuality. Drawing from biological and psychological research, this major reference explores the major theories about orientation; summarizes recent developments in genetic and neuroanatomic research; considers the role of social institutions in shaping current beliefs; and discusses the social construction of gender, sexuality, and sexual identity. The handbook also describes sexual dysfunctions in ton-clinical populations, clinical disorders, and important social issues. Experts address the continuing controversy over the feasibility of altering sexual orientation; practical concerns such as disability and illness; new developments in treating sexual and personal problems within heterosexual and homosexual populations; and perspectives about sexual deviations today. This handbook is designed for the use of educators, students, and researchers in the social and behavioral sciences.
