BOOK DESCRIPTION




Ms. Colton's book is dedicated to the proposition that we are not yet human beings, we are only human becomers. The sexual revolution has suddenly confronted us with new knowledge and a new honesty. No longer can sex education consist of a few embarrassed lectures for the awakening adolescent. We must all become both learners and teachers about the meaning of sex at every stage of life. Among the questions Helen Colton helps the reader explore with honesty and courage are:

• the meaning of sexual maturity.
• the cost of being sexually irresponsible.
• group sex and mate-swapping.
• how to talk sex with your children.
• sex problems of the single parent.
• the sensory human of the future.

This is a challenging book. Ms. Colton finds gains in the sexual revolution and he does not hesitate to say so. it is also a rewarding book, for the author believes that sexual freedom –like all freedoms– must enhance rather than demean our essential humanity. In these pages the reader will explore the complexities of sex after the sexual revolution under the guidance of a gifted, articulate and experience counselor in problems of sex and family living.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Sex is the most basic human drive, and has been the subject of endless speculation. Yet those who have set out to study the wondrous diversity of sexuality have often been met with resistance and ridicule.

If you're interested in sex--and who isn't?--here's is a book you have to read. "How I Got into Sex" is a fascinating collection of over forty individuals ranging in age from their mid-twenties to their mid-eighties, each of whom has a unique story to tell about the forces and influences that led to his or her interest in entering the sex field. Among the contributors are male-to-female and female-to-male transsexuals, cross-dressers, openly gay men and lesbians, a sex for toy manufacturer, a married Catholic priest, a sex surrogate, and a musician-turned-sexologist.


Everyone is a student of sex; but who are today's sex and gender professionals? Sexology, or sexual science, is a comparatively young field, although its modern roots go back many decades and its history, rooted in philosophy, anatomy, physiology, and related sciences, is centuries old. The contributors to this volume come from a variety of fields, including medicine, nursing, history, sociology, law, biology, anthropology, and psychology. While several are academics, others pursue careers as journalists, activists, therapists, or leaders of conciousness-raising groups. Many came to sexology serendipitously. They seemed unconsciously to be following the advice given to famed sexologist William Masters: become established in another field first, establish a "serious" reputation, and then study sex. All those  included here have inherently known that they were treading on delicate areas of the public psyche. In fact, a theme running through this book is how traditional attitudes, particularly the recent climate of intolerance fostered by religious conservatives and others, have negatively affected funding for sex research and thwarted sex education in schools.


These extraordinary and intimate life stories show that sexologists are not out merely to get their kicks, but are serious people dedicated to developing and enhancing their profession. Their valuable personal accounts reveal much about our society's current attitude to sex.


Contributors include Clive M.Davis, Milton Diamond, Betty Dodson, Albert Ellis, Robert T. Francoeur, Paul H. Gebhard, Richard Green, Naomi B. McCormick, John Money, June Reinisch, Ira L. Reiss, Martin S. Weinberg, Beverly Whipple, and many others.
