Key features
NEW TO THIS EDITION:

  • Revised and updated throughout to include recent research studies and contemporary examples.
  • Includes new topical coverage throughout, including the dramatic rollback of rights for transgender youth and  LGBTQ+ individuals, women’s increasing loss of reproductive freedom, the influence of technology on sexuality, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sexual behaviors.

KEY FEATURES:

  • This is a unique textbook that explores the ways sexuality operates in and through institutions such as sports, media, schools, workplaces, family, and religion.
  • Focuses not only on the social construction of sexuality but also on the sexual status hierarchy, emphasizing the privileges heterosexual and cisgender individuals experience and the discrimination sexual minorities face.
  • Explores the organized opposition to discrimination, demonstrating to students the misconception that progress is “inevitable” and, instead, is the result of decades of organized activism.
  • The text discusses a range of social problems and inequalities, including research on sexual assault, rape, pornography, sex trafficking, child sexual abuse, prison sex, intimate partner violence within same-sex relationships, and sexuality and militarism.
  • Global/transnational perspectives on sexuality help students understand sexuality as a social construction that changes across time and place.
  • The text includes chapters on the science of sexuality, from early sexologists to queer theory; coverage of issues facing transgender people; an exploration of sexual health, disability and sexuality, and sexually transmitted infections; and on reproduction.
