Book Description
"This is where sex and gender collide, then ricochet like fragments of heart rending shrapnel. Rarely has a book about lust been full of so much love, conflict, and intelligence. If you think you already know what's in these stories, or you think you don't need to know, you're wrong."—Patrick Califa, author of Sex Changes: The Politics of Transgenderism Exploring the crossroads of gender and sexuality, Trans/Love: Radical Sex, Love & Relationships Beyond the Gender Binary offers unusually engaging narratives that create a raw and honest depiction of dating, sex, love, and relationships among members of the gender variant community. FTM, MTF, thirdgender, genderqueer, and other non-traditional identities beyond the gender binary of traditional male and female are included in this often heartwarming, occasionally heartbreaking, always heartfelt groundbreaking anthology. From monogamous love and marriage to anonymous sex and one-night hook-ups (and everything in between), these stories offer readers insight into the precarious emotional and practical mechanics of intimacy among gender-variant experiences. Features contributions from award-winning authors including Julia Serano, Sassafras Lowery, and Max Valerio, alongside outstanding new writing by Tribe 8 guitarist and acclaimed film director Silas Howard, activist Joelle Ruby Ryan, filmmaker Ashley Altadonna, SisterSpit alum Cooper Lee Bombardier, and many other unique and talented voices. Morty Diamond is the editor of the critically-acclaimed anthology From the Inside Out: Radical Gender Transformation, FTM and Beyond. His performance work includes My Year In Pink and Ask A Tranny, a public performance piece on acceptance of and education about the trans experience.

The Gender Of Love
Author: Tanvi Narendra Panchal
Publisher: Blue Rose Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
I have been a voracious reader since I was a child. Amongst all the activities that I pursued, this is the one that I excelled in. I believed writing was something that I wanted to do; if not as a profession than as one of my passions. Being an all-rounder, be it academically, in terms of sports, or in terms of creativity, I feel really obliged to have had the opportunity of getting my own book published. This is just the beginning though. I have always been very vocal about my thoughts and opinions and have maintained a bold attitude towards developing my thoughts. This has helped me shape a very strong personality. I have always been practical throughout, but I am also aware of the fact that it is important to strike a balance between being emotional and being practical to ensure smooth working of and harmony between various relationships that we're a part of. Quality over quantity has always been my motto and that has helped me in securing a group of trustworthy people I can rely on. I believe in giving it all for the ones I love but I love very rarely! Trust and understanding deprived of egoistic thoughts are the important facets of all kinds of relationships, whether familial or platonic. The following is not a romantic story but a realistic depiction of various relationships and how one can strike a balance between them!

Love in America
Author: Francesca M. Cancian
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521396912
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
In the last twenty-five years, Americans have gained considerable freedom in thier personal lives. Relationships are now more flexible, and self-development has become a primary goal for both men and women. Most scholars have criticized this trend to greater freedom, arguing that it undermines family bonds and promotes selfishness and extreme independence, Francesca Cancian is more optimistic. In this book she shows that many American couples succeed in combining self-development with commitment, and that interdependence, not independence, is their ideal. In interdependent relationships, love and self-development do not conflict, but reinforce each other. Love in America compares 'traditional' forms of marriage with these newer forms of close relationships. Starting with the nineteenth century, Cancian shows how gender roles became polarized, with love, which was identified with emotional expression, no practical help, being the responsibility of women, while self-development was regarded as a masculine concern. These traditional images of love and relationships are still held by many Americans today, even though, as Cancian points out, this can lead to marital conflict and individual stress and illness. By contrast, new images of love, emphasizing self-development for men and women and flexible, androgynous roles, began to emerge around 1900, accelerating in the 1960s. She concludes that this trend to self-development and androgyny will continue, but that whether it will lead to more interdependent relationships, or to more independence and isolation, depends partly on economic and political changes in the wider society. The evidence for Cancian's argument comes from sociological, historical, and psychological sources. Her book will interest readers in these disciplines, as well s appeal to a wide general audience.

Re/Presenting Gender and Love
Author: Dikmen Yakalı Çamoğlu
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 1848883439
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2015. This volume presents interdisciplinary explorations aiming to understand the interaction and interconnection between the concepts of love and gender. Throughout the chapters, the reader can pursue various representations of gender and love and explore how their meanings are produced in different periods and geographies. These representations produce embodied individuals and shared meanings in which gender and love mutually construct each other. As you will see in the following chapters, what we set out to understand, most of the time, was not individual relationships but the relations of power. Thus, these essays show how gender and love are represented in various discourses; produced in knowledge – in philosophy, psychology, literature and popular culture; and regulated by the discursive practices and disciplinary techniques of different societies.

Gender as Love
Author: Fellipe do Vale
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493443925
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
In recent years, the issue of gender has become a topic of great importance and has generated discussion from the kitchen table to the academy. It is an issue that churches and Christian educational institutions are grappling with as well, since gender is a crucial aspect of identity, affecting how we engage socially and understand our embodiment. Upstream from all these conversations lies a more basic question: What is gender? In Gender as Love, Fellipe do Vale takes a theological approach to understanding gender, employing both biblical exegesis and historical theology and emphasizing the role human love plays in shaping our identities. He engages with and explains current theories and debates, but his approach is unique in that it avoids the present impasse between social constructionist and biological essentialist paradigms. His emphasis is on love as identity forming. This fresh, holistic approach makes an important contribution to the literature and will benefit scholars and students alike. Foreword by Beth Felker Jones.
