Youth, AIDS, and sexually transmitted diseases

by Susan Moore, Doreen Rosenthal, and Anne Mitchell (1996)

About this book

Youth, AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Diseases presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of these diseases on young people. It examines how their sexual behaviour has changed as a result of the threat of AIDS, and how useful models are for predicting those at risk. Drawing on insights from their own research in the field, the authors also use the voices of young people to illustrate their concerns, knowledge and attitudes about sexual health.

Memoria de mis putas tristes

Gabriel Garci a Ma rquez

"Cuenta la vida de este anciano solitario, un apasionado de la música clásica, nada aficionado de las mascotas y lleno de manías. Por él sabremos cómo en todas sus aventuras sexuales (que no fueron pocas) siempre dio a cambio algo de dinero, pero nunca imaginó que de ese modo encontraría el verdadero amor."-- P. [4] of cover.

Men in Love: Men's Sexual Fantasies

trad. de l'americain par Theo. Carlier

This is a book about men who love women. But it is not a collection of love stories. It is a study of the secret, erotic fantasies that men have always kept hidden, a taboo-shattering investigation that reveals the deepest, most conflicting feelings that men have about women, men and their own sexuality. Men in Love goes beyond the socio-sexual cliché of woman seen as either madonna or whore to reveal the conflict of love and rage at the centre of men's emotions and erotic desires. Based on thousands of candid responses from men ranging from their teens to their sixties, Men in Love - startling and shocking - will change men's deepest feelings about their sexuality and make the women who care about them understand them as never before.

Cover of How we love now

How we love now

Suzanne Braun Levine

The kinds of love we can experience in a lifetime are limited only by our imagination. Women in their fifties, sixties, and seventies are living--and defining--a totally new love narrative. Whether they are already experiencing intimacy, joy, and great sex, or need the inspiration and support to go for it, readers will be energized by the stories of new ways of loving: relationships found (sometimes with younger men); rediscovered childhood sweethearts; long-standing ones enriched; and Internet adventures that feature choices and daring that would have been unimaginable not so long ago. This book is the "next chapter" in Levine's ongoing conversation with women in Second Adulthood, the stage of life she defined and celebrated in Fifty Is the New Fifty. As she explores the changes and opportunities for women in midlife, Levine's personal voice, experience, and research infuse each chapter with fresh revelations and reassurance.--From publisher description.
