An eye-opening exploration of the weird and wonderful things human beings have done in pursuit (and denial) of the mighty orgasm, based on the hit Twitter account @WhoresofYore. This is not a comprehensive study of every sexual quirk, kink and ritual across all cultures throughout time, as that would entail writing an encyclopaedia. Rather, this is a drop in the ocean, a paddle in the shallow end of sex history, but I hope you will get pleasantly...

Just before Michel Foucault's untimely death in 1984, the second and third volumes of his History of Sexuality were published in France. A fourth volume will be published posthumously, and we can now see how much of this pioneering work Foucault had been able to accomplish. The books will not reach to the present--that had, in fact, ceased to be his intent--but focus instead on the pivotal changes that took place in Western culture from the Greco-Roman...

When Corinne Fisher and Krystyna Hutchinson created the wildly popular Guys We Fucked: The Anti Slut-Shaming Podcast, they discovered just how many people have been made to feel like either a nasty slut or a sexually repressed...

"Ditching the stuffy hang-ups and benighted sexual traditionalism of the past is an unambiguously positive thing. The sexual revolution has liberated us to enjoy a heady mixture of erotic freedom and personal autonomy. Right? Wrong, argues Louise Perry in her provocative new book. Although it would be neither possible nor desirable to turn the clock back to a world of pre-60s sexual mores, she argues that the amoral libertinism and callous disenchantment...

"The old South lives on at the MacGregor Plantation-in the breeze, in the cotton fields...and in the crack of the whip. It's an antebellum fever-dream, where fear and desire entwine in the looming shadow of the Master's House. Jim trembles as Kaneisha handles melons in the cottage, Alana perspires in time with the plucking of Phillip's fiddle in the boudoir, while Dustin cowers at the heel of Gary's big, black boot in the barn. Nothing is as it seems,...
