che chiameremo evolutivo ci permette di dare risposta a una serie di interrogativi a cui l'umanità ha cercato di rispondere da sempre e che fanno riferimento alla sessualità, alla coppia e alla seduzione: Cosa vogliono gli uomini? Cosa vogliono le donne? A cosa serve il sesso? Che strategia riproduttiva usa l'uomo? Che strategia riproduttiva usa la donna? Qual è l'obiettivo del corteggiamento? Cosa posso fare come donna per scegliere meglio? Perchè l'amore chiede sempre di più e non ottiene mai abbastanza? Perchè la selezione sessuale è un processo che non possiamo spiegare? Perchè ciò che è attraente per alcuni non lo è per altri? Perchè i nostri geni hanno scelto il sesso come meccanismo di riproduzione? Come possiamo migliorare le nostre capacità di seduzione? Come facciamo per essere quel che vogliamo essere? Come facciamo per mostrare la miglior versione di noi stessi? Perchè il pene ha la forma che ha? Perchè il prepuzio? Le dimensioni contano? Perchè il glande? Cosa è successo al baculum (osso interno del pene)? Cosa guardano le donne quando realizzano la loro selezione sessuale? Cosa attrae gli uomini? Come funziona la selezione sessuale? Perchè gli uomini a volte si innamorano solo con lo sguardo? Perchè le donne hanno bisogno di parlare per innamorarsi? Perchè le donne sono attratte da uomini che regalano loro diamanti? Perchè ai pavoni femmine piacciono i pavoni maschi con code grandi? Perchè siamo infedeli? Perchè tutti siamo contrari all'infedeltà ma tutti la pratichiamo o ci fantastichiamo sopra? Perchè l'attrazione ad essere infedeli è quasi irresistibile? PerchèBy Karrine Steffans. 2011
"Many people tend to think that fantasies are far-fetched and out of reach, that they are just for those girls---you…
know, the girls you've spent your whole life convincing others you're nothing like. Well, it's time to change our way of thinking and become more open to being just like those girls in our relationships. It's time to turn your fantasies, and your partner's fantasies, into reality, and not just on birthdays and holidays or when your man finally paints the garage. They should never be just for special occasions, but an active part of your everyday life. From this point forward, you should take a bold step, make a liberating decision. It's time to make fantasies and role-playing a regular part of your sexual agenda!"--Karrine SteffansSome of the chapters included in this combination of fantasy and advice are: Defilement Domination The One-Man Gangbang Paid Escort Self-Pleasure If I Have To Show You What To Do, Why Are You Here?

York Review of Books, here is an eagerly anticipated, stunningly original novel of heartrending lyricism about four women, a fierce mythopoeia that invites us to enter into a new and powerful imagination of the sublime: What if "a woman's point of view" were God's? As The Book of Heaven commences, Eve speaks about what is alleged to have happened in the Garden of Eden, a story she hardly recognizes. She tells her version of events, revealing that the constellations we are accustomed to seeing above conceal heavens with which we have yet to contend. In the four parts of the novel--The Book of Souraya, The Book of Savour, The Book of Rain, The Book of Sheba--and their accompanying proverbs, Eve accounts for four new zodiacs and teaches us how to view each and comprehend its centrality to women: a knife, a cauldron for cooking, a paradisiacal garden, lovers embracing. Each book keenly evokes the life of a woman newly freed from the old tales in which she was trapped: a metamorphosis of Sarah, Abraham's wife; a polytheistic cook; Job's wife; and the Queen of Sheba. In The Book of Heaven, Patricia Storace has brilliantly and radically reimagined the worlds of these women, putting them in the foreground of their stories and of the so-called Old Testament itself.From the Hardcover edition.By Kristina Wright, Sommer Marsden, Velvet Tripp, Vanessa Sade, Fulani. 2012
