In this ground-breaking book, Gillian Anderson collects and introduces the anonymous sexual fantasies of hundreds of women from around the world (along with her own anonymous fantasy). The fantasies are extraordinary: they are full of desire, fear, intimacy, shame, satisfaction and, ultimately, liberation. From fantasising about someone off-limits to conjuring a scene with multiple partners, from sex that is gentle and tender to passionate and playful, these letters provide a window into the most secret part of our minds.

Com seu estilo franco e certeiro, Ruth Manus mostra que expandir a conversa sobre o machismo, convidando para o papo as pessoas que ainda não têm familiaridade com o assunto, é mais do que necessário: é urgente. Deixando claro que um audiolivro contra o machismo não é um audiolivro contra os homens, que não são só os homens que têm atitudes machistas e que reconhecer o próprio machismo—e lutar contra ele—é um ato de coragem, Ruth nos guia no caminho da conscientização e nos convida a mudar comportamentos, discursos e, em última instância, o próprio mundo.

Em Vidas Trans, quatro pessoas trans—Amara Moira, João W. Nery, Márcia Rocha e Tarso Brant—relatam aos ouvintes o momento no qual percebem que havia algo diferente, sobre o sentimento de inadequação perante os padrões exigidos, sobre os preconceitos e dores vividos dentro e fora da família, sobre o momento de transição e, enfim, da liberdade sentida por esta decisão.

Best Gay Erotica 2015 is filled to the pause-resisting brim with fantastic tales of fire dancers and TV repairmen, of hunky painters and electricians and magicians, solo sex, duo sex, and sweat-soaked triple onslaughts. Heck, throw in an alien and a priest, and you'll soon see why this anthology is head and shoulders - not to mention certain other body parts - above the rest, and always with the highest literary quality that listeners have come to expect from this esteemed and steamy collection.

Teoría King Kong es uno de los grandes libros de referencia del feminismo y de la teoría de género, un incisivo ensayo en el que Despentes comparte su propia experiencia para hablarnos sin tapujos ni concesiones sobre la prostitución, la violación, la represión del deseo, la maternidad y la pornografía, y para contribuir al derrumbe de los cimientos patriarcales de la sociedad actual.

The second and concluding volume of Noël Coward's legendary autobiography includes Future Indefinite and the unfinished Past Unconditional. With his trademark wit, Coward delivers anecdotes about his travels in South America, Hollywood encounters with an array of contemporary stars and directors, and his later theatrical successes, including the Broadway triumph of Design For Living.

Our ability to make a fist is what distinguishes humans from every other species, including primates. The fist has played a crucial role in the birth of language and appears in nearly every form of nonverbal communication. We use our fist to protest oppression, give pleasure, knock on doors, give daps, and (inaccurately) measure our heart. Yet the fist is also a sign of someone on the edge. This book asks what happens when we lean over the edge of what a fist can do and symbolize.

In a crawlspace at the offices of Switchboard, a queer helpline in operation since 1974, lie dozens of log books kept by volunteers describing the phone calls they had taken: a teenager kicked out of home for dressing as the wrong gender; a lesbian terrified of having her baby taken away from her; a man arrested for chatting up another man; a young person wanting to know how to come out. These logs documented traces of tens of thousands of queer lives, captured by people who lent an ear to those in need.

Across centuries and continents, real love stories unfolded quietly behind palace doors, in secret letters, and across battlefields unseen by history textbooks but etched in time. Scandalous and Sacred dives deep into the lives of real couples who dared to love beyond society’s rigid lines of race, class, gender, and religion.

For straight couples, starting a family tends to be straightforward. For queer couples, not so much. But queer families have always existed—even Sappho, the OG lesbian, had a daughter. She named her Cleis, in honor of vaginas everywhere!

Can a synthesis of trans liberation and feminism be easily arrived at? This collection asserts that, as a matter of fact, we possessed the answer to that question decades ago. This series of essays aims to reconstruct and reintroduce the radical feminist framework that its misbegotten inheritors seem determined to forget and in doing so boldly makes the claim that transfeminism, far from being antagonistic to radical feminism, is in fact its direct descendant.

Men are in crisis. Ensnarled in a culture of masculinity driven by powerful patriarchal ideals, whipsawed by competing views of men and gender expectations, many men struggle to form true connections, find personal fulfillment, and experience happiness. We feel caught between our desire for change and fear of it, stuck in a "box" that harms us and those we love.

From a Jack-the-lad from Southend being expelled from one of the most prestigious schools in the country to becoming the fastest man through water on the planet and a television favourite, Mark takes listeners on a remarkable journey.

Data has never mattered more. Our lives are increasingly shaped by it and how it is defined, collected and used. But who counts in the collection, analysis and application of data? This important book is the first to look at queer data – defined as data relating to gender, sex, sexual orientation and trans identity/history. The author shows us how current data practices reflect an incomplete account of LGBTQ lives and helps us understand how data biases are used to delegitimise the everyday experiences of queer people.

Queerphobic and transphobic messaging can arrive from nearly any direction, and once queer and trans people are exposed to the fear, disgust and judgement people have for otherness, it can easily fester into internalized oppression. In a society that promotes the narrative of self-loathing queers, loving and accepting ourselves can be hard to imagine, let alone achieve.

A practical guide to help make nonmonogamous events and communities more inclusive of all genders and sexualities.

Throughout LGBTQ+ history, suburbia has been seen as somewhere to escape from: a place where heterosexuality rules; where difference will not be tolerated; where you'll never find a soulmate. But for many, those streets of twitching curtains and pebble-dashed semis were - or still are - a place to call home. From Addlestone to Wilmslow, Tales of the Suburbs explores the relatively untold twentieth century tale of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer people in suburbia.

À travers un essai qui mêle analyses sociologiques, témoignages et expériences intimes, Camille Teste interroge l'invisibilisation des personnes bi et révèle les violences silencieuses qu'elles subissent. Démontant les clichés qui collent à la bisexualité, elle s'attache à lui redonner toute sa place : ni un entre-deux ni un flou, mais une identité pleine et entière, qui dérange parce qu'elle trouble les lignes binaires, questionne la norme et fragilise le système.

Offen, kraftvoll und berührend berichtet Alex Mariah Peter von Kindheit und Einsamkeit, Herkunft und Identität, von Schönheit und Schmerz, Übergriffigkeit, Verlust und einem medialen Rampenlicht, das nicht immer wärmt. In einer Welt, die ständig definiert, wer man sein darf, wagt sie den mutigsten Schritt: ihre Geschichte selbst zu erzählen, um als ganze Person gesehen zu werden – nicht trotz, sondern wegen allem, was dazugehört.
