This book responds to the need to investigate the complex links
between sex and leisure and their implications for research and
practice. Understanding sex as leisure aligns with sex-positive
culture that focuses on affirming pleasure in the contemporary
sexual discourse and advocating for sexual diversity, freedom,
empowerment, and fulfilling sex lives. The focus of this book is on
analyzing the complexity of sex as leisure in various
socio-cultural and geographical contexts, with particular reference
to vulnerable populations and pressing sexual issues, including
sexual pleasure and expression, biomedicalization of sexuality, and
social justice and sexuality. Specific chapters offer diverse
international coverage and address the links between a positive
sexuality framework and leisure research. The chapters cover sexual
play and sex toys based on consumer experience perspectives; using
the leisure lens to analyze sex and pornography addiction;
quadriplegic sexuality and leisure; rejection and resilience on a
gay cruise; relational dynamics of aging, exploitation, and deceit
in sex tourism; sexual harassment of solo female travelers; and the
complexity of consent in the sexualized leisure space of a
pornography expo. This book will be of great value to those
interested in transdisciplinary scholarship as it critically
broadens the bio-psycho-socio-cultural perspective of sex as
leisure. The chapters in this book were originally published as a
special issue of the journal, Leisure Sciences.
This book encompasses the diversity and complexity of sex in
tourism, incorporating the light, dark and shades of grey in
between. It brings together work and ideas from a diverse array of
researchers from around the world and examines the affects and
effects of diverse sexual encounters in tourism, romance tourism,
sex tourism and sexual exploitation in tourism - including the
sexual exploitation of children in travel and tourism, and sexual
harassment. Sex in tourism has arguably been an understudied area
of research relative to the central roles that sex plays within
tourism experiences. This volume explores the complexity and
nuanced nature of sex in tourism in more detail. It will be of
interest to students and researchers of tourism impacts, tourist
behaviour, hospitality management, destination management and
development.
