An updated edition of a standard in its field that remains relevant more than twenty years after its original publication. More than twenty years ago, sociologist and University of California, Berkeley, professor Arlie Hochschild set off a tidal wave of conversation and controversy with his bestselling book, "The Second Shift" In it, she examined what really happens in dual-career households. Adding together time in paid work, child care, and housework, she found that working mothers put in a month of work a year more than their spouses. Updated for a workforce now half female, this edition cites a range of new studies and statistics and includes a new afterword in which Hochschild assesses how much-and how little-has changed for women today.

In "Bodies That Matter," Judith Butler further develops her distinctive theory of gender by examining the workings of power at the most "material" dimensions of sex and sexuality. Deepening the inquiries she began in "Gender" "Trouble," Butler offers an original reformulation of the materiality of bodies, examining how the power of heterosexual hegemony forms the "matter" of bodies, sex, and gender. Butler argues that power operates to constrain "sex" from the start, delimiting what counts as a viable sex. She offers a clarification of the notion of "performativity" introduced in "Gender Trouble" and explores the meaning of a citational politics. The text includes readings of Plato, Irigaray, Lacan, and Freud on the formation of materiality and bodily boundaries; "Paris is Burning," Nella Larsen's "Passing," and short stories by Willa Cather; along with a reconsideration of "performativity" and politics in feminist, queer, and radical democratic theory.

The work of leading scholar Terry Castle, called by the New York Times "always engaging...consistently fascinating," has helped to revolutionize thinking about lesbian studies and eighteenth-century literature. Reenvisioning the era as peculiarly alive with complexity, in which gender, sexuality, and culture are in constant flux, she offers provocative new theories on culture and sexual identity. This collection offers several of Castle's liveliest essays on female identity from the eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. Throughout the book are woven themes which are constant in Castle's work: fantasy, hallucination, travesty, transgression, and sexual ambiguity. Like the mythical thermometer of the title, which was purported to measure female lasciviousness, literature is filled with devices for quantifying elements of women's nature and sexuality which are hard to define--or uncomfortable to confront. Looking at images that mask or mystify female nature, like the masquerade or ghosts, these essays offer a challenging look at a fascinating range of issues involved in the exploration of gender studies. The inaugural volume in Oxford's Ideologies of Desire, The Female Thermometer foreshadows the thought-provoking and forward-looking nature of the books that will make up the series. Its revisionist version of eighteenth-century life will intrigue all those concerned with cultural studies and issues of gender relations throughout history.

《厌女》不是一部纯理论性著作，而是运用女性主义理论针对日本当代的各种社会现象的实践性分析。《厌女》处理了广泛的日本题材，其中既有文学性的，比如谈到小说家吉行淳之介、永井荷风、林真理子等，更多的则是社会性的。上野千鹤子谈到的许多现象，尤其是家庭的、婚姻的，在中国也有很类似的情况。知性的读者会从这些论述中获得强烈共鸣并得到理论上的指引。

界轉動的力量＝腐女的快樂裝置＝BL 日本首席BL專家 探討BL本質的劃時代著作 第一手文化、性別研究 揭開男男魅惑人心的祕密 ●中村明日美子手繪唯美書衣，雙封面深情呈現 ●橫跨50年BL發展歷史 ˇ超過80部BL作品介紹 ●BL名作《純情羅曼史》、《同級生》、《野性類戀人》、《東京心中》全解析 徹底明白BL的魔力！ 「BL不斷追求和提示的，是對所有人來說自由且宜居的社會適應方式。作者懷著愛意，冷静的分析了這項事實。讀了這本書，讓我更加下定决心熱愛BL。」 ——三浦紫苑（直木賞得獎作家） BL（Boy's Love），是男性與男性之間由戀愛發展出來的各種故事。從森茉莉在七○年代的美少年小說作為「BL始祖」，到現在各種漫畫、小說、動畫、電影，BL提供多重的樂趣，滿足了各式各樣的想像。 然而，喜愛BL的妳／你是否曾經想過： 為什麼BL的讀者與創作者，幾乎是異性戀女性？ BL故事中的女性為什麼反而經常缺席？ 為什麼「攻」在侵犯「受」以後，「受」仍會愛上「攻」？ 「我才不是同性戀，只是喜歡的人剛好是男生！」這句經典告白，其實流露出恐同意識？ 甚至，曾有男同志公開批判BL愛好者，掀起一場激烈論戰？ BL研究者溝口彰子從BL的歷史說起，從耽美幻想到與現實接軌，BL創作中蘊含的性別意識，以及在社會風氣影響下的變革。也正是這些思想上的互相激盪，催生出更多不受性別規範、具包容性的作品，成為一個持續「進化」的活動！

Sexology与sexuality有何区别？ 什么是性/别（gender/sexuality）？ Sexuality 所对应的“性”的意义内涵是什么？ 中国传统语境下的身体，和西方语境下的身体有何异同？ 两者又如何介入了当代中国民间身体观的构建？ 带着这些问题，作者将首先从“性/别”与“身体”入手，将“身体如何记忆，性/别如何叙事”作为本书关注的核心问题。并以肯尼•普拉莫的故事社会学为基础，在一种批判的人文与社科视角下，努力在中国的变迁社会情境中搭建一个性/别与身体叙事的故事社会学分析框架。 身体与性/别的研究在中国社会科学界尚属前沿，经验研究文献尤其缺乏。黄盈盈在多年田野研究的基础之上，结合对社会学理论与方法的反思与思考，深入探讨了当代中国社会中的身体问题，特别是女性以及多元性别的身体。 在本书中，我们将看到几类群体的性与身体故事，分别是城市白领女性、乳腺癌患者、女性艾滋病感染者、加拿大中国移民、变性人等。这些故事，从不同的面向具体地探讨了“中国式”的身体问题，促进身体、性及多元性别领域本土学术语境的形成，以及相关学科在中国的建设与发展。

Back in print, this daring novel constitutes a rhapsodic hymn to women's bodies and women's relationships. "That rare work in fiction . . . the art and the courage are of the highest level." —The Boston Globe

正如男性的身体往往被隐而不彰一样，男性时尚也没有受到足够的关注，更很少被当作学术研究的对象。作为近几十年来男性时尚发展的亲历者和研究者，杰伊•麦考利•鲍斯特德带着深切体认写就了《男装革命：当代男性时尚的转变》一书，让男装的历史变迁及其在近年来充满活力的发展获得了显影。 在研究方法上，鲍斯特德将时装及其图像作为文本进行细读，一方面致力于发现时尚的情感、情绪和审美的力量，另一方面则将这一文化实践与更广阔的社会政治进程联系在一起。与其说作者在讨论男性时装，不如说是在讨论男装背后的男性气质和身体的话语。在作者的笔下，男性时尚的发展过程是霸权男性气质和更为多元的男性气质的角力过程，是锐意进取的时尚设计师们用自己的作品不断重塑男性身体的过程。 《男装革命》是一本关于服饰文化类图书，是“万花筒”时尚文化系列图书的子系列“身体、服装与文化”中的一本。男装的历史其实比女装更有趣，因其包含更多的焦虑与争议。《男装革命》在讲述男装发展的历史的同时，提出了如何定义新世纪的男性角色、非主流厌恶、社会角色焦虑、中性化与女性化、廓形的解构、关于阳刚气质的争议与焦虑等诸多男装问题。作者试图从男装的历史和身体语言学的角度对这些问题进行阐释。

性别是流动的吗？ 美国GoldieBlox玩具公司生产了性别中立的玩具，试图挑战人们对儿童玩具的性别刻板印象。为避免对同性恋家长的歧视，法国议会已决定将“母亲”和“父亲”这两个词从教育系统的官方文件中去除。英国地铁与加拿大航空公司取消了“女士们先生们”的广播开头，改用 “大家好”，以推广性别中立， 传统的二元的男女性别角色在如今还有效吗？ 为什么有人的生理性别和性别认知不一致？ 我们的性别表达是怎样被建构的？ 我们正在步入无性别的社会吗？ 本书紧密贴合性别领域的热点新闻事件，如法国辅助生育技术的正式开放、同性恋从《国际疾病分类》中移除、普林斯顿大学允许6种性别选项、男女性别互换滤镜、“成为别人实验室”性别互换等，具有广泛讨论价值与深远影响力。 虽然我们从出生就被先天地赋予了生理性别，但有些人会在他们的生理性行为和他们的个人身份之间产生不和谐。本书从作为生物性征表达的性别、作为社会建构的性别、性别的多样性、性别激进主义四个方面，概括了性别在当下的多重意义与特性，扩展了读者对性别的认知。这是一本充满启发性的读物，适合对性别充满好奇或困惑的所有人。 The Big Idea系列 ★性别酷儿、无性别者、暗能量、气泡宇宙、过度医疗、反精神病学、元学习者、全脑仿真…… 别慌！本系列已将21世纪前沿问题相关的关键概念和关键节点一网打尽，让你在加入讨论前获得充分的装备,在纷繁的话题丛林中不再迷路。本系列特别采用分层排版，请以适合你的任意方式开始探索吧！ ★由点及面搭建系统性知识结构：针对话题事件延申出的学科概念，提供基础注释，降低阅读难度。清晰梳理学科从古至今的要点事件，帮助读者快速建立学科系统认知。 ★特色洋葱式分层阅读：内容由深到浅，策展式排版。内容重点分明，适合碎片化阅读场景。可满足不同喜好读者的阅读需求，在不同难度的文本间自由跳接。 ★装帧设计新潮时尚：入围英国图书设计与制作奖，全彩印刷。

Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, where your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body, where in a car accident you are 47% more likely to be seriously injured, where every week the countless hours of work you do are not recognised or valued. If any of this sounds familiar, chances are that you're a woman. Invisible Women shows us how, in a world largely built for and by men, we are systematically ignoring half the population. It exposes the gender data gap – a gap in our knowledge that is at the root of perpetual, systemic discrimination against women, and that has created a pervasive but invisible bias with a profound effect on women’s lives. Award-winning campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez brings together for the first time an impressive range of case studies, stories and new research from across the world that illustrate the hidden ways in which women are forgotten, and the impact this has on their health and well-being. From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, urban planning and the media, Invisible Women reveals the biased data that excludes women. In making the case for change, this powerful and provocative book will make you see the world anew.

A survey of the place of women in Chinese society.

Frequent reports of honor killings, disfigurement, and sensational abuse have given rise to a consensus in the West, a message propagated by human rights groups and the media: Muslim women need to be rescued. Lila Abu-Lughod boldly challenges this conclusion. An anthropologist who has been writing about Arab women for thirty years, she delves into the predicaments of Muslim women today, questioning whether generalizations about Islamic culture can explain the hardships these women face and asking what motivates particular individuals and institutions to promote their rights. In recent years Abu-Lughod has struggled to reconcile the popular image of women victimized by Islam with the complex women she has known through her research in various communities in the Muslim world. Here, she renders that divide vivid by presenting detailed vignettes of the lives of ordinary Muslim women, and showing that the problem of gender inequality cannot be laid at the feet of religion alone. Poverty and authoritarianism--conditions not unique to the Islamic world, and produced out of global interconnections that implicate the West--are often more decisive. The standard Western vocabulary of oppression, choice, and freedom is too blunt to describe these women's lives. Do Muslim Women Need Saving? is an indictment of a mindset that has justified all manner of foreign interference, including military invasion, in the name of rescuing women from Islam--as well as a moving portrait of women's actual experiences, and of the contingencies with which they live.

Nancy Fraser's powerful new book documents the "movements of feminism" and the shifts in the feminist imaginary since the 1970s. Fraser follows the history of feminism from the ferment of the New Left, during which "Second Wave" feminism emerged as a struggle for women's liberation alongside other social movements, to its emersion in identity politics following the decline of its initial utopian energies. Alongside this detailed history, Fraser recognizes the need for a reinvigorated feminist radicalism to respond to the crisis in neoliberalism. She argues for a feminism that could join other egalitarian movements in struggles aimed at subjecting capitalism to democratic control, while retrieving the core utopian insights of feminism's earlier phases.

本书对女性与现代性之间的复杂关系进行了创新而激动人心的探索，挑战了传统的以男性为中心的现代性理论，并大胆质疑了某些女性主义观点，这些观点或是将现代性妖魔化为内在的父权制的产物，或是假定了一个有关现代社会男性经验和女性经验之间的简单对立。作者将文化历史和文化理论相结合，聚焦于19世纪末这个特殊的历史时期，对怀旧、消费、女性书写、大众化的崇高、进化、革命和变态等概念进行了检视。她从比较和跨学科的视角出发，对来自英语、法语和德语传统的大量文献进行了细致的文本分析，涉及社会学理论、现实主义和自然主义小说、颓废文学、政论文章和演讲、性学话语，以及通俗情感小说等多个领域，分析的男性和女性作家包括齐美尔、左拉、萨克-马索克、拉希尔德、玛丽•科雷利、王尔德和奥利芙•施赖纳等。 “得益于菲尔斯基开阔的批评视野和丰富的批评情感，该书提供了对性别和现代性的绝佳思考，而且菲尔斯基最终让我们相信，对这两个问题的思考必须紧密联系在一起。我想不出还有什么书能具有这种兴趣的广度，以及对理论价值变化的警觉。可以说，菲尔斯基以出类拔萃的水准，用后结构主义的方法书写了一部翔实的历史唯物主义佳作。说这本书充满智慧毫不为过：它缜密公允，关注政治，兼收并蓄，又具有令人振奋的跨学科思维。” ——詹妮弗•维克（Jennifer Wicke）, 纽约大学 “菲尔斯基向我们证明了性和性别对现代主义/现代性文化的核心意义，她的研究复杂而巧妙，既利用了当代理论，又借助了对手边材料的历史研究。与她先前的论著一样，菲尔斯基展现了扎实的、前沿的学者知识，同时对该领域一些过热的理论话语表现出了良好的冷静态度。她对女性主义、后结构主义、马克思主义等常见的理论观点的评论总是十分公正，她文笔清晰，论证中闪耀着洞见的火花。” ——安德烈亚斯•许森（Andreas Huyssen），哥伦比亚大学

“There is much to like about a book which gets real about the male anus as a site of penetrability which is not reducible to discourses of feminization, phallicization or psychosis. With real panache and poetic flair, it returns us to an earlier moment in queer theoretical discourse we would associate with Lee Edelman’s Homographesis (easily the best book ever written in queer theory and every page of The Penetrated Male reminded me of it), Calvin Thomas’ Male Matters, and Leo Bersani’s “Is the Rectum a Grave?” Given the recent squeamishness … in queer theoretical circles about shit, anality, and penetrability, there is real value (and it is not some sort of nostalgia for an earlier moment we might want to get back to) in this book which never shies away from any of these matters. As embodied and eroticized theory, it fills a much needed hole in contemporary discourse about the male body. It is a book I should like to have written.” ~ Michael O’Rourke Through nuanced readings of a handful of modernist texts (Baudelaire, Huysmans, Wilde, Genet, Joyce, and Schreber’s Memoirs), this book explores and interrogates the figure of the penetrated male body, developing the concept of the behind as a site of both fascination and fear. Deconstructing the penetrated male body and the genderisation of its representation, The Penetrated Male offers new understandings of passivity, suggesting that the modern masculine subject is predicated on a penetrability it must always disavow. Arguing that representation is the embodiment of erotic thought, it is an important contribution to queer theory and our understandings of gendered bodies.

A comprehensive work on the metaphysical aspects of sexuality. Julius Evola sheds new light on the mystical and spiritual expression of sexual love. This in-depth study explores the sexual rites of sacred traditions, and shows how religion, mysticism, folklore, and mythology all contain erotic forms in which the deep potentialities of human beings are recognized.
