Produktbeschreibung
Several years after the phenomenal success of The Hite Report on Female Sexuality, Shere Hite took on this major work on male sexuality. With a new introduction by media artist and independent filmmaker Liz Canner. Seven thousand men, ages thirteen to ninety-seven, speak openly and with feeling about their fears and secrets, their sexual preferences and practices, their profoundest joys and disappointments. This representation of male sexuality delves into how men feel about their relationships to women and to each other; about love, monogamy, marriage; about affairs and sex outside of marriage; about growing older; about violence and pornography; and about the great variety of sexual practices they have (or have not) experienced. Hite’s brilliant compilation of quotations from detailed questionnaires is accompanied by her own commmentary and proposal of what sex has been in our patriarchial society—and what it might yet become. This seven-year study is a striking portrait of the male psyche and the enormous variety of sexual possibilites in this world. In today’s regressive political and cultural climate, Shere Hite’s daring message recenters the raw, emotional truth behind the cisgender male experience.
