¿Sabías que hasta hace un par de siglos sujetar y envolver a los niños para que no pudieran moverse, privarlos de alimento o colgarlos de ganchos en las paredes eran prácticas habituales? ¿O que el infanticidio y la venta de niños para utilizarlos como rehenes políticos o pagar deudas de los padres son infamias que llegan casi hasta nuestros días? Sofía Lewicki, psicóloga especialista en crianza, se propone en este libro rastrear la voz de los infantes, “los que no hablan”, como fueron nombrados en la antigüedad. Para esto se vale de lo que ella llama “la crianza del reconocimiento”.

Zábavnou formou sledujeme proměnu společenského chování v ohledu na intimní činnosti (např. antikoncepce či spodní prádlo) od starověku až po novověk. V učebnicích historie i vědeckých dílech najdeme především údaje o panovnících, slavných bitvách, hospodářství i umění, ale o základních lidských potřebách se toho dozvíme málo či vůbec nic. Vlastimil Vondruška to napravuje a lehce stravitelným stylem přináší informace o různých pojetích péče o lidské tělo a o proměně společenského chování v ohledu na intimní činnosti od starověku až po baroko.

Las necesidades eróticas de la mujer actual van mucho más allá de superar las disfunciones o patologías sexuales. Tienen que ver con la libertad sexual. Una libertad llena de trampas. Porque, aunque ya nadie duda de la capacidad de la mujer de desear y de sentir placer —los movimientos generados por la famosa saga Cincuenta sombras de Grey y el famoso succionador de clítoris así lo demuestran—, su libertad es constantemente vigilada y juzgada.

In Non-Toxic Masculinity, Zachary Wagner tells men, "If you are in Christ, this is your problem—and you should be part of the solution."

For those—both men and women—who feel disillusioned and adrift, this book offers a renewed vision for Christian male sexuality founded in empathy and selflessness.

Was hinter verschlossenen Schlafzimmertüren passiert, bleibt auch der Forschung großteils verborgen. Manche Fachleute tauchen jedoch tief in die Privatsphäre von Probandinnen und Probanden ein, um deren Sexualverhalten zu vermessen. Sie stellen Fragen wie: Wann war dein erstes Mal? Wie viele Mal pro Monat hast du Geschlechtsverkehr? Von wem fühlst du dich angezogen? Wie kommunizierst du, dass du Lust (oder keine Lust) auf Sex hast? In dieser Ausgabe von Spektrum Kompakt werden einige der Erkenntnisse zusammengefasst, die sie mit solchen Befragungen und weiteren Untersuchungen gewinnen konnten.

Freud comienza a partir de la exigencia cultural de virginidad de la mujer para llegar al matrimonio, buscando el "estado de servidumbre" que garantice su ulterior posesión sin sobresaltos. Esa medida de servidumbre sexual sería indispensable "para mantener el matrimonio cultural y poner diques a las tendencias polígamas que lo amenazan". Por eso a Freud le llaman la atención los rituales de pueblos en los que se evita que la desfloración quede a cargo del futuro marido, y sea realizada por otro personaje, y analiza las diferentes explicaciones de este "tabú de la virginidad".
