Ooh, you might also like Why are People Into That?: A Cultural Investigation of Kink by Tina Horn!
Thank you for the recommendation! Iâll add it
I love this! May I suggest Ace by Angela Chen? I haven't read it yet, but it sounds super interesting, and it might cover sexuality from a different perspective :)
Added! Thank you for the recommendation
Added! Thank you for the recommendation
This is an awesome list! Kinky History by Esme Louise James would be a great addition if youâre taking recs đ€
Thank you so much for the recommendation! Iâll add it :)
I recently heard a friend rave about Leatherfolk, it seems like it could fit perfectly here!
Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation
Oooh what a lovely list! Would love to recommend Hurts So Good: The Science and Culture of Pain on Purpose by Leigh Cowart. The author talks about masochism not just in sexuality but sexual is included in it as she, herself, is a masochist.
Thank you :) Ooh I âm so excited to read this one that looks awesome!
It's one of my 5 "my taste" books on here, and in my top 10 nonfictions. I learned so much and she goes into topics I would have never though to associate with pain for pleasure, like ultra marathon and ballet dancing.
