Excerpt from Love's Coming of Age: A Series of Papers on the Relations of the Sexes
The subject of Sex is difficult to deal with. There is no doubt a natural reticence connected with it. There is also a great deal of prudery. The passion occupies, without being spoken of, a large part of human thought; and words on the subject being so few and inadequate, everything that is said is liable to be misunderstood. Violent inferences are made and equivocations surmised, from the simplest remarks; qualified admissions of liberty are interpreted into recommendations of unbridled license; and generally the perspective of literary expression is turned upside down.
There is in fact a vast deal of fetishism in the current treatment of the question. Nor can one altogether be surprised at this when one sees how important Sex is in the scheme of things, and how deeply it has been associated since the earliest times not only with man's personal impulses but even with his religious sentiments and ceremonials.
Next to hunger it is doubtless the most primitive and imperative of our needs.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of human sexuality, exploring its historical suppression and the resulting societal challenges. The author argues that the current understanding of sex is shrouded in prudery and misunderstanding, leading to confusion and unhealthy attitudes.

The author advocates for a more rational and balanced approach, acknowledging both the physical and emotional aspects of love. The text delves into the disparities in how men and women experience love and sexuality, highlighting the historical subjugation of women and the societal structures that perpetuate inequality. The author calls for a reevaluation of traditional gender roles and a move towards a more equitable and fulfilling relationship between the sexes.
