Sex is often regarded as a dangerous business that must be
rigorously controlled, regulated, and subjected to rules. Sexual
acts that defy acceptable practices may be seen as variously
defiling, immoral, and even unnatural. They may challenge and
subvert both cultural preconceptions and the social order in a
politics of sexual transgression that threatens to transform
permissible boundaries and restructure bodily engagements. This
collection of essays explores acts of sexual transgression that
have the power to reconfigure perceptions of bodily intimacy and
the social norms of interaction. Considering issues such as
domestic violence, child prostitution, health and sex, teenage sex,
and sex with animals across a range of settings from contemporary
Oceania, the Pacific, South Africa, and southeast Asia to
Euro-America, this book should interest all those who question the
"naturalness" of sex, including public health workers, clinical
practitioners and students of sex, sexuality, and gender in the
humanities and social sciences.
