Sex Under Siege

In addition to well-known diseases, there are deeply rooted sexual "e;cultural diseases"e; that have shaped our lives for centuries. Depending on the era, place, and society, these diseases appear as either a disease, a functional disorder, a special form of sexuality, a religious peculiarity, or a cultural norm. This book sheds light on the historical, social, and psychological origins of certain sexual norms and practices, taking a critical look at a topic that has always influenced our thoughts and actions. It is a provocative and insightful statement about a part of our lives that we generally take for granted.
