Book Description
Is there anything more awesome than seeing two women who are completely into each other finally hook up? Not bloody likely. In Victoria Gray's new short story collection Lez-tastic Sex Tales: 6 Sexy Stories of Lesbian Erotica the mistress of premier sexy erotica brings us seven compelling tales of girls falling in love then making love. If you love W/W stories, then you cannot miss this new debut from Victoria Gray. In Summer Days are Coming, lonely lesbian Rachel must work up the courage to ask out the popular Alexa who is the star of the basketball, softball, and tennis teams. Alexa might seem intimidating, but Rachel needs to speak up if she ever wants a chance with her. With a little help from her friend Sabrina, Rachel will step out of her shell and take a chance at love and sex. What happens when a humiliation masochist ends up working at a card shop owned by a hungry domme? Find out in We All Have to Hustle. In order to keep her job, she must do anything the owner says, and we do me ANYTHING. Is there anything worse than moving back home after earning your college degree? What if your parents get divorced and your dad starts dating a really hot girl who stays at home and talks about porn all the time? What if she's super into you too? As it turns out, Becky is a great step mom, even though she vapes and watches cartoons all day. Find out how great *wink wink* in My Step Mom's Cool. In a fantasy world so similar, yet so different from our own, women of exceptional beauty are trained for years to be the ultimate sexual servants. Stilleta is a lonely warrior who has seen a lifetime of battle and now wants someone simple and sweet to cuddle with at night. In My Paramour, the world of beautiful and elegant Citreen will clash with the guild life of Stilleta. Will the gracious and quiet paramour be enough for her new warrior lover? Twin sisters Rebecca and Beth had a difficult religious upbringing, made no easier by the fact that they were both pure bred lesbians. Forbidden from dating, they receive their first taste of freedom when they turn 18, move out, and rent their own apartment together. But the only person Rebecca wants to date is Beth. But does Beth feel the same way? Ignorance Isn't Bliss in this compelling narrative of sisters searching for love. The Rite of a Thousand Pleasures begins tonight, and Laqua must be perfect if she wishes to join the powerful and secretive Sisterhood. When she arrives at the temple, Laqua learns she must become a sexual martyr in order to please their goddess, Luna. Can sex truly lead to a religious experience?

In Neurosis and Human Growth, Dr. Horney discusses the neurotic process as a special form of the human development, the antithesis of healthy growth.

Lesbian Lives
Author: Maggie Magee
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134898738
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
In this groundbreaking re-visioning of lesbianism, Magee and Miller transcend a literature that, for decades, has focused on the timeworn and misconceived task of formulating a lesbian-specific psychology. Rather, they focus on a set of interrelated issues of far greater salience in our time: the developmental and psychological consequences of identifying as homosexual and of having lesbian relationships. Their consideration of these issues leads to a rigorous review of major psychoanalytic and biological theories about female homosexuality and a probing examination of current notions of gender identity. These tasks set the stage for Magee and Miller's own model of psychologically mature sexuality between members of the same sex. The developmental and clinical issues taken up in specific chapters of Lesbian Lives include the challenges facing lesbian adolescents; the psychological and social significance of "coming out"; the various meanings and contexts of coming out as a gay or lesbian analyst; the interaction of individual psyche and social context in clinical work with lesbian patients; and the history of homosexual therapists and psychoanalytic training. The chapter on "Bryher," the lesbian-identified life partner of the poet Hilda Doolittle (Freud's patient "H.D."), relying on unpublished documents, is not only a wonderful exemplification of themes developed throughout the work, but an invaluable contribution to psychoanalytic history. Lesbian Lives is a heartening sign of the generous scholarship and humane impulse that are transforming psychoanalysis in our time. In writing infused with an experiential immediacy born of personal participation in the stories they tell, Magee and Miller weave a multiplicity of narratives into a fabric of explanation far richer, far more colorful --far truer to lived experience--than anything psychoanalysis has heretofore offered on the subject.

7 Erotica Sex Stories Of Threesomes
Author: Tracy Queen
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781951339609
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
From the salacious mind of one of the most prominent sexual authorities in the States, Tracy Queen, comes a book filled to the rafters with all manner of kinky tales. Narratives filled with perversions, explicit text, bizarre sexual acts, taboos and, above all, heart. A book that proves that erotic fiction can be packed with not only great sex scenes and mind-numbing erotica but with rounded characters and fantastic comedy. "Sex, above berthing else, should be fun." Tracy Queen. From the book's sleeve: "...Grab hold of this sexually charged tome and get ready for the debauchee ride of your life. Flick off the lights, pop the bubbly in the fridge and make a speedy supply run to your favorite sex-shop. The night is young, enjoy it by staying in. 7 sexually energized tales of erotic fervor. Tantalizing short stories that skip around porn subsections and genres like a jaded horny frog with too much lube and a pansexual attitude towards his couples. Read through sexual escapades that border the line of good sense and dive headlong into perversions... in a good way. Marvel at the many directions a Threesome can take. Stand mouth agape at the cross-sections and roads a party of three can skate into. Hard lefts on BDSM Avenue. A U-Turn on Cock-old boulevard. A speedy getaway down tranny highway. A book that mixes and matches sexual configurations. Meet the likes of Franks, the skyscraper sexual dynamo who ruins women for all other lovers. Shake hands with psycho Moira, the bisexual goth child that's bad news dressed in knee high leather boots. High five Penny and her husband, Andy, as they ask their best friend: "why won't you f$&k me?" Form a relationship with Juan, the down on his luck good kid turn happy-go-lucky bull for rent. Get turned on my Amanda, financial guru and boss, with her inner porn actress. Bask in every taboo you can think off... and even score a drink, on me, in the Cancun all-inclusive resort of your mind, while a bartender undresses you and the tourist on the stool besides you slips you his hotel key."

Cycling and Cinema
Author: Bruce Bennett
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 1906897999
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
A unique exploration of the history of the bicycle in cinema, from Hollywood blockbusters and slapstick comedies to documentaries, realist dramas, and experimental films. Cycling and Cinema explores the history of the bicycle in cinema from the late nineteenth century through to the present day. In this new book from Goldsmiths Press, Bruce Bennett examines a wide variety of films from around the world, ranging from Hollywood blockbusters and slapstick comedies to documentaries, realist dramas, and experimental films, to consider the complex, shifting cultural significance of the bicycle. The bicycle is an everyday technology, but in examining the ways in which bicycles are used in films, Bennett reveals the rich social and cultural importance of this apparently unremarkable machine. The cinematic bicycles discussed in this book have various functions. They are the source of absurd comedy in silent films, and the vehicles that allow their owners to work in sports films and social realist cinema. They are a means of independence and escape for children in melodramas and kids' films, and the tools that offer political agency and freedom to women, as depicted in films from around the world. In recounting the cinematic history of the bicycle, Bennett reminds us that this machine is not just a practical means of transport or a child's toy, but the vehicle for a wide range of meanings concerning individual identity, social class, nationhood and belonging, family, gender, and sexuality and pleasure. As this book shows, two hundred years on from its invention, the bicycle is a revolutionary technology that retains the power to transform the world.

The World of Odysseus
Author: M. I. Finley
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1590170172
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
The World of Odysseus is a concise and penetrating account of the society that gave birth to the Iliad and the Odyssey--a book that provides a vivid picture of the Greek Dark Ages, its men and women, works and days, morals and values. Long celebrated as a pathbreaking achievement in the social history of the ancient world, M.I. Finley's brilliant study remains, as classicist Bernard Knox notes in his introduction to this new edition, "as indispensable to the professional as it is accessible to the general reader"--a fundamental companion for students of Homer and Homeric Greece.

Discovering Life, Manufacturing Life
Author: Pierre V. Vignais
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048137675
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Francis BACON, in his Novum Organum, Robert BOYLE, in his Skeptical Chemist and René DESCARTES, in his Discourse on Method; all of these men were witnesses to the th scientific revolution, which, in the 17 century, began to awaken the western world from a long sleep. In each of these works, the author emphasizes the role of the experimental method in exploring the laws of Nature, that is to say, the way in which an experiment is designed, implemented according to tried and tested te- niques, and used as a basis for drawing conclusions that are based only on results, with their margins of error, taking into account contemporary traditions and prejudices. Two centuries later, Claude BERNARD, in his Introduction to the Study of Experimental Medicine, made a passionate plea for the application of the experimental method when studying the functions of living beings. Twenty-first century Biology, which has been fertilized by highly sophisticated techniques inherited from Physics and Chemistry, blessed with a constantly increasing expertise in the manipulation of the genome, initiated into the mysteries of information techn- ogy, and enriched with the ever-growing fund of basic knowledge, at times appears to have forgotten its roots.

Reality Bites Back
Author: Jennifer L. Pozner
Publisher: Seal Press
ISBN: 1580053750
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Nearly every night on every major network,"unscripted" (but carefully crafted) "reality" TV shows routinely glorify retrograde stereotypes that most people would assume got left behind 35 years ago. In Reality Bites Back, media critic Jennifer L. Pozner aims a critical, analytical lens at a trend most people dismiss as harmless fluff. She deconstructs reality TV's twisted fairytales to demonstrate that far from being simple "guilty pleasures," these programs are actually guilty of fomenting gender-war ideology and significantly affecting the intellectual and political development of this generation's young viewers. She lays out the cultural biases promoted by reality TV about gender, race, class, sexuality, and consumerism, and explores how those biases shape and reflect our cultural perceptions of who we are, what we're valued for, and what we should view as "our place" in society. Smart and informative, Reality Bites Back arms readers with the tools they need to understand and challenge the stereotypes reality TV reinforces and, ultimately, to demand accountability from the corporations responsible for this contemporary cultural attack on three decades of feminist progress.
