Positive Sexuality

A Promising Future for Sex Research, Education, and Practice

About this book

This book focuses on an emerging, multidisciplinary, positive sexuality framework that guides sexuality research, education, and practice.

Using this positive sexuality framework, this book will provide helping professionals and others with current research and information on topics and populations that are often missed or misrepresented, including but not limited to: lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, and other orientations; transgender, nonbinary, and other non-cisgender identities; seniors; sex workers; racial minorities; and other marginalized peoples. This framework, based on the social and behavioral sciences, can be used in tandem with other theoretical frameworks, modalities, and methodologies to better support a growing, multifaceted, and unique human population. Chapters are authored by topic experts and utilize the most recent scholarship pertaining to positive sexuality. Readers will come to understand diverse sexuality more completely and inextricably linked to other parts of one's identity and learn to address diverse sexual topics and issues more openly and with a spirit of compassion and human connectedness.

This edited volume is a must-read for sexuality researchers, clinicians, helping professionals, policymakers, and students from diverse educational backgrounds who are interested in human sexuality.
