Abstract

In this chapter, Ansara discusses that psychotherapists' engagement with intersex people has historically privileged the views of endosex (non-intersex) medical professionals and the needs and experiences of endosex parents with intersex children, often disregarding or invalidating the wishes of intersex people. Intersex people of all ages are often subjected to medical abuse, coercive practices, and gender policing, including some widespread procedures that cause permanent, irreversible harm. As partners, as parents, and in public life, adult intersex people continue to be targeted for dehumanisation, disenfranchisement, and oppression. Evidence shows that prioritising intersex people's autonomy and human rights can improve intersex people's psychosocial satisfaction and wellbeing. This chapter will introduce the reader to the diverse range of physiological variations, strengths, challenges, and experiences within the umbrella category of adult intersex people's erotic, affectional, and relational lives. Ansara will critique popular myths, stereotypes, and tropes about intersex people, interrogating the epistemic violence perpetrated by racist, colonial, and ableist Eurocentric medical models and also by queer and feminist misappropriations of intersex people's lived experiences into dehumanising and sensationalising political tropes. Ansara will introduce an intersex-centred framework for sex therapy and relationship counselling that integrates an anti-racist, decolonial praxis, and rights-based approach. This chapter will then provide intersex-centred practice guidelines and explore their real-life applications for centring adult intersex people's own needs and experiences in psychotherapeutic practice, with a specific focus on sex therapy and relationship counselling contexts.

Abstract

How is "gender" received by students of educational research, pedagogy and related fields? What are the students' views on gender issues? Based on the observation that interest in gender issues is perceived more as an individual and somewhat anachronistic phenomenon, the empirical study reconstructs the influence of the educational institution university and the study of the specific subject area on students.

Abstract

Seks gaat niet altijd vanzelf, ook niet binnen een relatie. Veel mensen lopen dan ook ergens in hun leven tegen seksuele problemen aan. Soms is er een lichamelijke oorzaak aan te wijzen, maar vaak ligt er een psychisch probleem aan ten grondslag. Ook kan er sprake zijn van een combinatie van beide.In Omgaan met een seksueel probleem worden mogelijke seksuele problemen voor mannen en vrouwen afzonderlijk op een rij gezet. Per probleem worden lichamelijke en psychische oorzaken beschreven. De auteur laat zien dat wat de een als een probleem ervaart, voor een ander aanvaardbaar kan zijn. Maar wanneer er in de praktijk weinig terechtkomt van wat je verwacht te kunnen beleven, is er sprake van een seksueel probleem.Omgaan met een seksueel probleem geeft je inzicht in je eigen seksualiteit en laat zien wat je aan seksuele problemen kunt doen. Misschien heb je genoeg aan de informatie en de praktische tips uit dit zelfhulpboek om (weer) een aanvaardbaar seksueel leven te realiseren. Voor wie toch liever een externe deskundige raadpleegt, beschrijft de auteur verschillende vormen van hulp die je bij een psycholoog-seksuoloog of een arts-seksuoloog kunt krijgen.Omgaan met een seksueel probleem vormt zo een waardevol kompas om je weg te vinden in de professionele seksuele hulpverlening.Omgaan met een seksueel probleem verschijnt in de reeks Van A tot ggZ.

Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive overview for those interested in research and promoting sexual health in older people, as well as a “go-to” guide on the topic of sexual behaviour in older adults. Sexual activity is an essential part of intimate relationships, though it tends to decline in frequency as people grow older. Nevertheless, for many older people, sex still remains an important part of their life. There’s a common misconception that as people age, they lose their interest in sex and capacity for sexual behaviour. This is not the case, as a number of national surveys show. The new research presented here indicates that the less sex older people have, the more likely they are to experience mental and physical health problems. Men and women who reported a decrease in the frequency of sexual activities were also more likely to report a deterioration in self-perceived health. Additionally, men with erectile dysfunction were also more likely to be diagnosed with cancer or coronary heart disease. This research has also determined that older adults who experience a decline in sexual activity report poorer well-being than those who maintain their levels of sexual desire, activity and function in later life, and that men who remain sexually active in later life continue to have better cognitive performance compared to those who don’t. Despite these health benefits, medical professionals do little to promote sexual activity in older adults, and the literature suggests that there is a lack of knowledge on how to approach the subject and how to promote such activities. This is the first comprehensive book specifically exploring all areas of sexual behaviour and health in older adults, and drawing on the latest research in this area. It offers a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians in various health fields (medicine, nursing, occupational therapy, psychology, public health, etc.), as well as students in undergraduate and graduate programs.

Abstract

Er wordt vaak gesproken over normvervaging en normverval. In deze derde WRR Verkenning laat cultuursocioloog Gabriël van den Brink echter zien, dat dit een eenzijdige interpretatie is van de werkelijkheid. Er is juist veeleer sprake van een ophoging van onze normen, waardoor we steeds hogere eisen gaan stellen aan het gedrag van anderen. Als de normen in de samenleving teveel uiteen gaan lopen, doet zich haast vanzelf een kentering voor. Na een periode van tolerantie en vrijblijvendheid, volgt dan een periode waarin de nadruk ligt op plichtsbesef en normhandhaving. Het lijkt erop dat we moment

Abstract

Female Sexuality represents a distinct contribution to the psychoanalytic study of feminine psychology and sexual identity. First published in France as Recherches psychanalytiques nouvelles sur la sexualite feminine, the book consists of six major essays and a comprehensive introduction which reviews the various approaches to the subject. Freudian and non-Freudian views on female sexuality are carefully examined, thus providing a valuable perspective from which to view the authors' subsequent discussions. "The present authors," writes Dr J. Chasseguet-Smirgel in her introduction, "have attempted as far as possible to free their theoretical ideas and their clinical interpretations from the unconscious fantasies which distort scientific objectivity. "Christian David thus uses a clinical history to study masculine myths about femininity; Catherine Luquet-Parat attributes an important role to female masochism in the young girl's "change of object"; Bela Grunberger examines the origins of female narcissism.

Abstract

More than any other challenging behaviour, the sexual abuse of one child by another generates anxiety, puzzlement and confusion.Adults confident in dealing with a defiant or delinquent child find their confidence leaves them when confronted with sexual misbehaviour in a child who they expect to be asexual. In this book, Jackie Bateman and Judith Milner provide an accessible overview of the evidence relating to such problem behaviours, from inappropriate behaviour to sexual abuse. They go on to propose research-based effective and creative methods that professionals can use to develop responsib
