Christians who struggle with a conflict between their sexual and religious identities have few therapeutic options available to them. An alternative to these methods is Sexual Identity Therapy (SIT) -an approach that aims to provide individuals with a safe therapeutic space to explore the tension between their sexuality and their faith. Working within the SIT framework, clients are able to resolve their inner conflict to their personal satisfaction and to freely choose a coherent identity that enables them to move forward in life.

Sexual ethics has historically been a bleak landscape of three false alternatives - resist, abstain, or indiscriminately indulge. In Eros and Ethos, philosopher Jason Stotts presents a radical, new alternative in which sex is an ethically important part of a rich human life. He shows how sex is a significant expression of our character, because sex arises out of the deepest and most fundamental parts of who we are.

Anica Plaßmann sitzt in ihrer Praxis immer mehr Paaren gegenüber, die mit ihrem (ausbleibenden) Sexleben unzufrieden sind. Die Gründe sind vielfältig.

"Dis papa, est-ce qu'on peut aimer deux personnes en même temps ? Comment on fait pour que l'amour ne meure pas ? Où se trouve la source de l'amour ?" Ne pas confondre passion amoureuse et amour passionné, ne pas occulter non plus la fête des corps, les désirs d'enfants, comprendre la multiplicité des sentiments et l'existence d'un "terrorisme" amoureux... Autant de sujets sensibles que Jacques Salomé évoque en apportant des éléments de réponse à ses enfants - et aux autres - sans préjugé ni gêne.

Dans le jargon de la pornographie, le cumshot, c’est le plan final qui met en scène la jouissance – exclusive – de l’acteur masculin. Lili Boisvert y voit l’illustration parfaite du principe dominant de la rencontre hétérosexuelle, lequel nous dit que le désir est un élan qui doit toujours partir de l’homme pour aller vers la femme. Quand on le remet en cause, on nous répond que c’est la « nature humaine », ou on nous ressort de vieilles théories psychologiques et biologisantes cent fois contredites par les faits.

In his groundbreaking book, noted expert on teenage and adult masculine behavior Andrew Smiler debunks the myth that teenage boys and young men are barely able to control their sex drives, which may lead to destructive hyper-sexuality, unwanted pregnancy, and sexually transmitted diseases. Dr. Smiler helps us to recognize that the majority of boys and men do not fit this stereotype and that boys' sexual development is multi-faceted.

Too loud. Too shrill. Too far. Too much. Despite the systematic chipping away at our voices, autonomy, and rights, women who demand more - or even just enough - continue to be pushed aside, talked over, and dismissed. From unbridled online abuse to the unspoken societal rules that dictate who can express anger, when you're a feminist the personal is political...and it's time we all embrace feminism as a matter of survival.

Never again confuse a Flying Wallenda with an inverted wheelbarrow, food sex with vanilla sex, or a banjo string with a cupid stunt.

In 1964, American judge Potter Stewart famously said, ‘I can’t define pornography, but I know it when I see it.’ Over 50 years later, the reverberations of these words are still being felt across the world. Be it proposed porn bans, religious morality or women’s rights, the assumption is that porn has a single, knowable definition. But one man’s art is another woman’s erotica is another person’s sex tape.

Fearing the rejection of her parents, she hides the truth about her love orientation, creating emotional distance from them for years, as she desperately struggles to harness her powerful attractions to women while pursuing false efforts to be with men.

"Voll Porno?!" Ist Pornokonsum heutzutage alltäglich und normal geworden? Was für Auswirkungen hat er auf mein eigenes Leben, auf meine Beziehungen und auf meinen Umgang mit Sexualität? Christoph Pahl (Jg. 1981) setzt sich gekonnt mit der Thematik auseinander, präsentiert die Ergebnisse wissenschaftlicher Studien und spricht ehrlich über eigene Erfahrungen und seinen Ausstieg aus der Pornofalle. Gemeinsam mit dem Hörer überlegt er, was einen echten Kerl eigentlich ausmacht und ermutigt dazu, sich mit den eigenen Bedürfnissen und Sehnsüchten auseinanderzusetzen.

Life begins for us all at conception! The egg is penetrated by the sperm, and then, within 65 seconds, 46 chromosomes are cajoled by dopamine! The ecstatic high of dopamine sealed each one of our conceptions in a high of happiness that we all recall! In the very instance called our "zero hour", our life began, and we not only saw the lights but we were that light spark of life. Life, for us, began at this point that our parents' cells were sealed with a happiness called our "first high".
