Description
"The United States may have a puritanical past, but the 21st century is wide open to diverse gender expression and romance. Good Sex is the manifesto-or ManiSexto, if you will-for this cultural revolution. Same-sex marriage is legal, the #MeToo movement has exploded, colleges nationwide now teach consent-based sexual health, the media celebrates body positivity, and transgender visibility has become mainstream. Defining "good sex" as both ethical and pleasurable, Catherine M. Roach features such topics as equity, intersectionality, and shared pleasure while offering a lively discussion that is inclusively feminist, queer-friendly, and sex-positive without being divisive. An accessible guidebook, Good Sex provides hope that America's sexual, gender, and racial injustices can be addressed together. After all, this new gender and sexual revolution strengthens the pursuit of happiness and love. Welcome to the revolution!"--

| 505 | 0 | |a Preface -- Foreplay: Introducing the manisexto: a manifesto for the new gender and sexual revolution -- Manisexto #1: Positive sexuality: sexuality is a normal, healthy, and pleasurable aspect of being human. Sex: it's complicated -- What do we mean by "good" sex? -- The misunderstood meaning of "sex-positive" -- The two-sided story of sex in America -- Romancing the Puritan -- Manisexto #2: Equity and inclusion: gender and sexual identities are diverse - and that's okay. Why diversity matters across the rainbow spectrum, for us all -- Conversation, consensus, and cultural competence -- The meanings of queer -- Sex is not everything: the surprising lesson of asexuality as part of diversity -- Manisexto #3: Body positivity: all bodies are good bodies. The naked truth: embracing body positivity and diverse ways to embody gender -- Body positivity doesn't mean "let them eat cake!" it's about holistic well-being -- It's not about "looking good" but about feeling good - and that includes your genitals too -- Sex is not only for the young and beautiful -- Manisexto #4: Consent: full consent is fundamental to all sexual activity. The role of consent in good sex -- What consent is (good communication) - and is not (green eggs and ham or a blanket) -- Saying yes, saying no, expanding the gender scripts -- Boys don't belong in a box -- Manisexto #5: Shared pleasure: good sex is mutually pleasurable and respectful. Power with, not power over -- Who gets to feel good? gender and pleasure beyond the shame-and-blame tightrope -- Closing the orgasm gap: porn and hookups -- Cliteracy and the politics of pleasure -- Climax: drawing the line toward new visions of love -- Afterglow: Where we go from here: toward better sex education in America -- Acknowledgments and note on student responses. | |
