Balancing sex and love since the 1960s sexual revolution

Article Abstract:

Changes in the balance between sex and love since the 1960s can be understood as regularities in cultural processes of civilization and integration. Four main phases include the sexual revolution of the 1960, a transitional phase of sexual oppression between the late 1970s and the mid-1980s, a revival of lust in the late 1980s and a revival of both lust and love beginning in the early 1990s. These changes are seen in relation to the traditional 'lust balance,' in which male sexuality is dominated by lust and female sexuality is dominated by romantic love.

On the elementary forms of the socioerotic life

Article Abstract:

Erotic sexuality is governed by an implicit logic that corresponds to the inner logic of social occasions in general, suggesting a single 'socioerotic' domain. A few general laws and rules generate a range of socioerotic practices based on rites of inclusion that create social bonds. Involvement of the body and a goal of producing and experiencing pleasure are common elements in socioerotic practices. The theory of the socioerotic is also discussed in relation to conflictual fields.

Citysex: representing lust in public

Article Abstract:

The city and modern sexuality are inherently connected. The urban world is basically a world of strangers, one which forms the primary form of social life in modern times. Urban sexuality is characterized by consumerism, the excitement of opportunity and freedom, a focus on surfaces, and the importance of the gaze. The analysis suggests that sexuality should not be textualized and divorced from its emotional and sensual nature.
