Summary of Zachary Zane's Boyslut
Get the Summary of Zachary Zane's Boyslut in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. "Boyslut" by Zachary Zane is a candid memoir that delves into the author's personal journey with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), his liberal Jewish upbringing in the San Fernando Valley, and the development of his sexual identity. Zane's OCD manifested in intrusive thoughts about nudity, which he learned to manage with therapy and medication. Despite a supportive family environment that encouraged open discussions about sex and mental health, Zane struggled with sexual guilt and shame, influenced by societal sex-negativity and personal experiences, such as being scolded by his nanny for childhood sexual exploration...
Boyslut
A sex and relationship columnist bares it all in a series of essays--part memoir, part manifesto--that explore the author's coming-of-age and coming out as a bisexual man and move toward embracing and celebrating sex unencumbered by shame As a boy, Zachary Zane sensed that all was not right when images of his therapist naked popped into his head.

Boyslut is a memoir-manifesto in which Zane articulates that, even today, we live in a worl...

A feminist mystery that author Jessica Goodman called "whip-smart and lowkey hilarious", about the dark side of a hopeless romantic's seemingly perfect love story. Play to win.

Is Brenton with Alyson for the right reasons—or is he trying to win some gross game? And when the girls at school take matters into their own hands, things take an unsettling turn. Lies, secrets, backstabbing . . . when push comes to shove, who’ll be left standing?
It Ain't Over Til the Bisexual Speaks
'Bisexuality allows for so many ways to desire and to express that desire. Plurality is at the heart of bisexuality' The bisexual experience is, by necessity, incredibly diverse - we are likely to be attracted to different genders, form part of multiple marginalised groups, and be perceived (depending on the gender of our partner) in wildly different ways.. This anthology is a radical and ambitious attempt to capture the incredible multiplicity of bisexual identities. With essays that unpack the intersectionality and conflict of bisexuality with history, language, sexual violence, class identity, religion, polyamory, gender critical ideology, fatness, trans activism, the asylum system, literature and anarchy - this collection of bi voices demands to be heard..

Bi
What bisexual youth can tell us about today’s gender and sexual identities Despite the increasing visibility of LGBTQ people in American culture, our understanding of bisexuality remains superficial, at best. Yet, five times as many people identify as bisexual than as gay or lesbian, and as much as 25 percent of the population is estimated to be bisexual. In Bi, noted scholar of youth sexuality, Ritch Savin-Williams, brings bisexuality to centerstage at a moment when Gen Z and millennial youth and young adults are increasingly rejecting traditional labels altogether. Drawing on interviews with bisexual youth from a range of racial, ethnic, and social class groups, he reveals to us how bise...

A Concise Dictionary of First Names
Here is the ultimate first name handbook, a delightfully informative, comprehensive survey of over 4,500 European and American names (with two appendices covering the most common Arabic and Indian names).
