Books like Modern Sex by Myron Magnet


"The sexual revolution of the 1960s made a large promise: if we just let go of our inhibitions, we'll be happy and fulfilled. Yet sexual liberation has made us no happier and, if anything, less fulfilled. Why?". "The remarkable essays in Modern Sex tackle the question head-on. In moving and often eloquent detail, the authors show that sex today is increasingly mechanical and without commitment - a department of plumbing, hygiene, or athletics rather than a private sphere for the creation of human meaning. The result: legions of unhappy adults and confused teenagers deprived of their innocence, on their way not to maturity but to disillusionment."--BOOK JACKET.
