Male lust : pleasure, power, and transformation

Kerwin Kay (Editor), Jill Nagle (Editor), Baruch Gould (Editor)
"The essays, stories, and poems in Male Lust encompass a large scope of experiences that men have with sex and desire. You will explore the extreme diversity of men's relationships as well as the vast number of social forces that shape, contain, and even produce "male lust." Some of the sexual thoughts and experiences linked to questions of power that you will encounter in Male Lust include: gay men's experiences as survivors of sexual abuse and assault; both gay and straight men's struggles with sexual compulsion and self-destructive behaviors; gay and straight male experiences of work in the sex industry as drag queens, porn stars, and more; voices of transsexual men as they confront new, hormonally charged feelings toward women; voices of women who have been impacted by male lust and control and how they have handled these scenarios; an examination of the differences between straight male and female sexual fantasies; and an examination of the porn industry, its narrowly construed sexual identity, and its treatment of women."--Jacket
