Sexual Behavior: Problems and Management
ISBN: 9781489911353 / Angielski / Miękka / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many issues remain unresolved in sexuality. In some cases this is because the infor- mation is not available to resolve them. In others it is, but the available conclusions the information supports block its acceptance, because they conflict with the posi- tions of dominant groups in the politics of sexuality. Possibly the most obvious example is the determination of many theorists to ignore the evidence that while men rarely report being sexually assaulted, when questioned in community surveys, they make up a third of the victims, and a quarter of the perpetrators of sexual assault are...
