The Origins and Role of Same-Sex Relations in Human Societies

The Origins and Role of Same-Sex Relations in Human Societies Publisher: McFarland | ISBN: 0786435135 | edition 2009 | PDF | 478 pages | 2,12 mb This groundbreaking work draws on a vast range of research into human sexuality to demonstrate that homosexuality is not a phenomenon limited to a small minority of society, but is an aspect of a complex sexual harmony that the human race inherited from its animal ancestors. Through a survey of the patterns of sexual expression found among animals and among societies around the world, and an examination of the functional role homosexual behavior has played among animal species and human societies alike, the author arrives at some provocative conclusions: that a homosexual or bisexual phase is a normal part of sexual development, that same-sex relations play an important balancing role in regulating human reproduction, that many societies have institutionalized homosexual traditions in the past, and that the harsh condemnation of homosexuality in Western society is a relatively recent phenomenon, unique among world societies throughout history. This well researched and meticulously documented book is the first that integrates into a coherent picture the startling revelations about human sexuality coming from the recent work of sexual researchers, psychologists, anthropologists and historians. The view that emerges, of an ambisexual human species whose complex sexual harmony is being thwarted by the imposition of an artificial understanding of nature, represents a new way of thinking about sex.

BULLSHIT !! Written by a queer, no doubt to justify himself... THE FACTS are that in many early societies homosexuality was condemned or rejected as an abnormal behaviour, which the author conveniently hides, for instance ancient Egypt (in the Book of the Dead having sex with other men is denied as a sin) and among the Hebrews, just read the Bible... Queers are pushing things too hard and I ear with their silly gay "pride" events (why not "lame pride" or "blind pride" ones?) are inviting losing the rights they have earned. Discretion, prudence, not provoking the majority that detests seeing gay couples kissing, wise policy for a small minority.
