Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter. Pecker. Wiener. Dick. Schlong. Penis. Whatever we choose to call it, the penis is more than just a body part. This A-to-Z encyclopedia explores the cultural meanings, interpretations, and activities associated with the penis over the centuries and across cultures. Scholars, activists, researchers and clinicians delve into the penis in antiquity, in art, in religion, in politics, in media, in music, and in the cultural imagination. They examine the penis as a problem, a fetishized commodity, a weapon, an object of play. Penile décor and fashions—from piercings to koteka—are treated with equal dignity. Explanation of common medical terms and not-so-common subcultural practices add to the broad scope of the book. Taken together, the Cultural Encyclopedia of the Penis offers refreshing, thoughtful, and wide-ranging insight into this malleable, meaningful body part.

Book excerpt: Playboy FBI agent Jack Boudreaux meets Kennedy St. George at his partner’s wedding, and in typical Jack fashion, he seduces her. Like every fling before, it was supposed to be a one-night stand. Kennedy was burned by her ex-husband—badly. She told everyone he cheated on her, because the truth—that he stole all her money before disappearing out of her life—is far more embarrassing. When she meets Jack at her cousin’s wedding, she decides a one-night stand is the perfect distraction from her otherwise screwed up life. Ah, you don’t always get what you expect. That one-night stand turns into a torrid affair that distracts Jack from his current undercover assignment and puts their hearts—and Kennedy’s life—in danger. Now there’s only one way Jack can stop a killer, and it involves admitting what he and Kennedy both swore they didn’t want. Tough Love Series Naked Truth Undercover Heat Delicious Deception

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across America, strip clubs have come under attack by a politically aggressive segment of the Christian Right. Using plausible-sounding but factually untrue arguments about the harmful effects of strip clubs on their communities, the Christian Right has stoked public outrage and incited local and state governments to impose onerous restrictions on the clubs with the intent of dismantling the exotic dance industry. But an even larger agenda is at work, according to Judith Lynne Hanna. In Naked Truth, she builds a convincing case that the attack on exotic dance is part of the activist Christian Right’s “grand design” to supplant constitutional democracy in America with a Bible-based theocracy. Hanna takes readers onstage, backstage, and into the community and courts to reveal the conflicts, charges, and realities that are playing out at the intersection of erotic fantasy, religion, politics, and law. She explains why exotic dance is a legitimate form of artistic communication and debunks the many myths and untruths that the Christian Right uses to fight strip clubs. Hanna also demonstrates that while the fight happens at the local level, it is part of a national campaign to regulate sexuality and punish those who do not adhere to Scripture-based moral values. Ultimately, she argues, the naked truth is that the separation of church and state is under siege and our civil liberties—free speech, women’s rights, and free enterprise—are at stake.

Book excerpt: This book offers an account of an unprecedented North American study of contemporary female and male strip shows. It particularly focuses on the contradictory sex roles, cultural positions, and performance practices of 'straight' strip shows during their second heyday in the early 1990s. Katherine Liepe-Levinson's research took her to over seventy different strip bars, clubs, theatres and sex emporiums ranging from elaborate lap-dancing and couch-dancing 'gentlemen's' clubs in New York, Houston, and San Francisco; to Peoria's onetime duplex cabaret where women strip for men downstairs, and men for women upstairs; to the nightclubs of Montreal where female and male performers displayed the 'Full Monty'. Liepe-Levinson's intriguing, comprehensive study concentrates on the cultural and theatrical elements of the strip shows themselves including the geographic locations and interior designs of the clubs, the choreography and costumes of the dancers and the all-important participation of the audience. She draws upon a variety of methodologies as well as interviews with performers to explore how the strip show's cultural and theatrical aspects simultaneously uphold and break traditional sex roles. Her findings readily complicate several of the most prominent and prevalent theories about sexual representation, gender and desire.

Book excerpt: Do you ever wonder what’s going on in a man’s mind? Do you keep getting into bad relationships with the wrong type of men? Has Mr Luke Warm got you feeling like Ms Justine Case? Have you ever wondered why a man who loves you would cheat on you? There are millions of smart, successful, beautiful women out there who are making disastrous relationship decisions. Ladies sure love horoscopes but seem to have a problem seeing the signs. Many of them don’t realise the mistakes they’re making, nor understand the psyche of the average man. “Lying Fully Clothed: Exposing the Naked Truth About Men” offers an unadulterated, yet hilarious insight into the mind of a player from the viewpoint of someone who’s been on both sides; the player and the played. In this book, you will find out the plethora of tactics that a man will use in order to cheat on a woman or just keep her on the side as a “link”. On top of this, you will discover what a man truly wants and how you can capture the one that’s right for you. Stimulate a man’s body and you may have him for the night; stimulate a man mentally and you may have him for life. Dear Rob is an author who uses history, anthropology, sociology, his quirkiness, and the fact he has been that man you’ve pulled your hair out for, to convey a hard-hitting message to unveil the shroud that covers many women’s eyes. However, if you’re looking for a man to complete you, you’ve missed the whole point.

Book excerpt: A behind the scenes expose of action both on stage and off. This is the true account of Troy Kline, a handsome, tall, 28-year-old experiencing life in an all-male Chippendales strip review touring the Scandinavian countries. Take a cataclysmic ride across theatre stages and into rave clubs and hotel rooms where Chippendales erotic dancers not only strip their lives bare, but participate in drug excesses and sexual orgies with willing subjects. Experience after-hours antics of women enticed by muscular fantasy men, and advances taken for granted by Chips on the prowl for sexual pleasure. Troy, having struggled through a strict religious upbringing, marriage and divorce, is discovered at the age of 27 in a Kirkland, Washington bar as a gifted singer worthy of becoming a Chippendales show lead. Half-way through the Scandinavian tour his breaking all the rules attitude to drugs, alcohol and sexual abuses results in Troy's contract being terminated. This devastating action sinks him into a mire of clinical depression which threatens to destroy him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a teenager, Dion McTavish was a nerd. Smart, quiet, and scrawny, he surrounded himself with video games and books. He didn't drink or try drugs and he definitely did not party. But something happened when he got to the University of Florida. He began to work out. Soon, his new physique and a chance visit to a lingerie shop led him to a profession he'd never considered: male stripping. American Stripper tells the story of Dion's personal and professional growth as a stripper and as a young man navigating a new world of debauched parties, drunk sorority girls, swingers, jealous boyfriends, and male revues. Come along as he acquires a highly prized cop uniform, has his first threesome, and falls in love--all while pursuing his original dream, to become an English teacher abroad. Vivid, thoughtful, and hilarious, American Stripper is a candid account of the transformation of an ordinary boy into a hunky, world traveling young man who knows how to balance business with pleasure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Ideology of Conduct, first published in 1987, scholars from various fields, from the medieval period to the present day, discuss literature in which the sole purpose is to instruct women in how to make themselves desirable. This collection investigates how middle-class writers who had long emulated the behaviour of the aristocracy began to criticise that behaviour by formulating an alternative object of desire. They did so without appearing to breed political controversy because it seemed to concern only the female. But writing for and about women in fact became a powerful instrument of hegemony as it introduced a whole new vocabulary for social relations, induced certain forms of economic behaviour as desirable in men and women respectively, and insured the reproduction of the nuclear family. It is argued, therefore, that the literature of conduct not only recorded but also assisted the production of our contemporary gender-based culture.

Book excerpt: This book uses the emerging and cutting-edge area of leisure research to highlight the importance of sexuality and sexual activity and its relevance to leisure studies. It brings to the fore some complex issues associated with this topic using a range of substantive, epistemological, theoretical and methodological approaches. Drawing on international scholarship, the book examines sexuality from multiple, and at times, competing directions, exploring the continuum of sex from work through to carnal pleasure, and across specific sexual practices including BDSM, pornography, stripping, and sex work. Drawing on critical, feminist, queer, and post theoretical perspectives, the book charts a new direction for leisure studies and sex research, including diverse understandings of leisure practice, sex positivity, fringe and deviant sex practices. Critically, the book moves beyond merely establishing sex as a leisure pursuit to focusing on the compelling and complex intersections between sexuality and leisure. This is fascinating reading for any student or researcher with an interest in leisure, sexuality, gender, cultural studies or sociology.

Book excerpt: Jack is an FBI agent, a playboy, a man who is happy tasting the flavor of the month and not staying for breakfast. He’s perfectly content with his life and has no interest in finding his happily ever after. So when he is attracted to Kennedy at his partner’s wedding, he naturally takes the opportunity to seduce her. Now it’s time to focus on the next good-looking woman who comes along, right? Ah, you don’t always get what you expect. Kennedy was burned by her ex-husband—badly. She told everyone he cheated on her, because the truth—that he stole all of her money before disappearing out of her life—is far more embarrassing. For the last three years she’s struggled to pay off her debt, ignoring her libido and refusing to consider allowing another man to get close. A one-night stand with Jack is the perfect way to break her sexual fast—until she discovers that he’s pouring her morning coffee and frying bacon. While Jack goes undercover at a male strip club, the two begin an affair that distracts him from his job and puts their hearts—and Kennedy’s life—in danger. Now there’s only one way Jack can stop this killer, and it involves making that declaration they both swore they didn’t want. Sensuality Level: Sensual

Book excerpt: Romping through crooked games, dodgy players, exotic venues and incredible hands, 'Poker's Strangest Hands' celebrates the strange history of Poker's most celebrated tournament, its World Championship event and the characters who have graced it with their presence, compiles some of the strangest things said about the game and fully records the details of the strangest Poker Year yet, 2006. The Poker world is divided between those who believe the game to be the most skilled contest ever devised, and those who believe that success in the game relies on pure luck. Sharpe's thorough excavations through long forgotten archives of the game have uncovered the first ever Poker cheat, who was literally making a spectacle of himself in 1829; has unearthed the game which reportedly lasted for 24 years; exposed the US President who gambled away the White House crockery; and discovered that a certain member of the Royal family was very much amused by Poker. Whatever your view this book will appeal to the novice player who can barely tell his flops from his nuts, and equally to the connoisseur of the subtleties of Poker who has developed and matured his or her skills over many years.
