Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro ofrece un relato de primera mano sobre la sexualidad en el matrimonio en Inglaterra entre 1918 y 1963. Basado en testimonios vívidos y francos de diversos individuos, explora experiencias sexuales, desde el aprendizaje sobre el sexo y las prácticas sexuales en el cortejo, hasta las actitudes hacia el cuerpo, los ideales maritales y el control de la natalidad. Demuestra que, si bien el énfasis de la época en el silencio y los códigos morales estrictos podía ser una fuente de inhibición e insatisfacción para algunos, para muchos la cultura de la privacidad y la inocencia era fundamental para una vida íntima plena y placentera.

Paperback. Condition: New. What did sex mean for ordinary people before the sexual revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, who were often pitied by later generations as repressed, unfulfilled and full of moral anxiety? This book provides the first rounded, first-hand account of sexuality in marriage in the early and mid-twentieth century. These award-winning authors look beyond conventions of silence among the respectable majority to challenge stereotypes of ignorance and inhibition. Based on vivid, compelling and frank testimonies from a socially and geographically diverse range of individuals, the book explores a spectrum of sexual experiences, from learning about sex and sexual practices in courtship, to attitudes to the body, marital ideals and birth control. It demonstrates that while the era's emphasis on silence and strict moral codes could for some be a source of inhibition and dissatisfaction, for many the culture of privacy and innocence was central to fulfilling and pleasurable intimate lives.
