Sex is a big deal. And as the spirit of the age moves rapidly away from traditional sexual norms, Christians are feeling the pressure to abandon their ancient beliefs to conform to society's evolving views on sexuality and gender. Responding to the pressure with conviction and clarity, this book spells out the Bible's teaching on sex, arguing that the ultimate goal of all human sexuality is the glory of God. After outlining key biblical standards and explaining the true purposes for sex (procreation, pleasure, love, etc.), the latter portion of the book explores controversial issues such as homosexuality, queer theory, and polygamy. Firmly rooted in the pages of Scripture, this book sets forth a compelling vision of human sexuality that is both soul-satisfying and God-glorifying.

Why does my spouse, mate or partner have no interest in sex? What's really going on? Can it be fixed? In this brief book, Dr. Eaton explains Why it's happening How to prevent it What to do about it, if you're already there No psychological mumbo jumbo, because lack of sexual desire or psychology has nothing to do with it. There are two distinct physical types of humans in regard to sex. Dr. Pete explains how to tell the difference, how to find your own type and possible ways to proceed if you've paired up with the opposite type. A real how to book. In the matching of men and women in couples possibly leading to marriage, even though marriage is the leading cause of divorce and the most popular outcry amidst the divorce controversy with voices ringing in the halls of justice and accusations of infidelity and private investigators documenting the marital affairs of cheaters committing acts of adultery, etc, etc, etc... Women are often left wondering why men cheat? The truth of the matter is that it is not as rudimentary as being a men versus women issue at all. Even though the women get much less press than the men, the unfaithful wife is actually much more popular, but is much more stealthy in her approach to conducting her extramarital affairs. Dr. Pete Eaton reveals all in his book, Sex Wise, and tells the truth about relationship problems - especially when related to areas of sexual conduct - unraveling the secret to why men cheat and (even more) why women cheat, and it's not what you might expect, and it has nothing to do with lack of love! Dr. Eaton clearly explains that it is not the differences between men and women that are the reasons for divorce, rather it is due to a difference in the amount of innate sexual hunger which has nothing to do with men vs women, because both men and women are either hungry for sex, or not, and each have all different degrees of that hunger. Marriage problems are more due to compatibility issues due to mismatched sexual hunger. The insatiable desires of women and men are better of appropriately matched to other mates with the same sexual desires. The problem is with our mating methods when selecting a potential mate our species tends to put on its best face to impress and seduce potential mates to seal the deal. This leads to misrepresentation, i.e. women and men misrepresenting themselves as being sexually proficient with high levels of sexual desire, enough to satisfy any mate. You may have noticed that many of these sexually desirous individuals revert to their standard level of sexual desire. Also, presented are solutions for couples experiencing relationship problems due to differences in sexual hunger, breaking through the age old idea of infidelity and presenting ideas and examples of how to have and maintain a happy marriage, even if you are unequally matched in terms of sexual desire. Get prepared to enjoy the full satisfaction from your personal level of sexual desire, enjoy all the sexual activity to match the libido that you were born with, even if you are in a mismatched relationship. This could be the only real answer to how to save your marriage, even if you share sexual hungers on opposite ends of the spectrum."

Hookup culture dominates the lives of college students today, and many feel great pressure to engage in it. But how do these expectations affect students themselves? Freitas uses students' own testimonies to define hookup culture and propose ways of opting out.

Since Darwin's day, we've been told that sexual monogamy comes naturally to our species. Mainstream science—as well as religious and cultural institutions—has maintained that men and women evolved in families in which a man's possessions and protection were exchanged for a woman's fertility and fidelity. But this narrative is collapsing. Fewer and fewer couples are getting married, and divorce rates keep climbing as adultery and flagging libido drag down even seemingly solid marriages. How can reality be reconciled with the accepted narrative? It can't be, according to renegade thinkers Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jethå. While debunking almost everything we "know" about sex, they offer a bold alternative explanation in this provocative and brilliant book. Ryan and Jethå's central contention is that human beings evolved in egalitarian groups that shared food, child care, and, often, sexual partners. Weaving together convergent, frequently overlooked evidence from anthropology, archaeology, primatology, anatomy, and psychosexuality, the authors show how far from human nature monogamy really is. Human beings everywhere and in every era have confronted the same familiar, intimate situations in surprisingly different ways. The authors expose the ancient roots of human sexuality while pointing toward a more optimistic future illuminated by our innate capacities for love, cooperation, and generosity. With intelligence, humor, and wonder, Ryan and Jethå show how our promiscuous past haunts our struggles over monogamy, sexual orientation, and family dynamics. They explore why long-term fidelity can be so difficult for so many; why sexual passion tends to fade even as love deepens; why many middle-aged men risk everything for transient affairs with younger women; why homosexuality persists in the face of standard evolutionary logic; and what the human body reveals about the prehistoric origins of modern sexuality. In the tradition of the best historical and scientific writing, Sex at Dawn unapologetically upends unwarranted assumptions and unfounded conclusions while offering a revolutionary understanding of why we live and love as we do.
