Description

In this concise exploration of sexuality, Véronique Mottier delves into the intricate interplay between biological and social influences. The discussion invites readers to ponder whether their sexual identities and preferences stem from genetic predispositions or are shaped by the cultural norms and expectations surrounding them. By examining various perspectives, from evolutionary theories to sociocultural frameworks, Mottier prompts a reconsideration of the factors that contribute to sexual understanding.

Through thought-provoking analysis, the book encourages readers to reflect on their own experiences and the societal constructs that inform them. It highlights how complex issues such as gender, desire, and identity are not merely personal but also deeply embedded in the fabric of society. Ultimately, the work serves as a gateway to a richer comprehension of human sexuality, urging a dialogue that transcends simplistic explanations.
