As you go through these challenges with lots of laughter and enjoyment, sex will stop being a source of tension and become something fun that brings you together, just the way God intended.

The reason that the other conventioneers do it; philosophers just talk about it.

And talk about sex and love, and friendship is what the contributors to this volume do They talk and argue, split hairs and clarify, all trying to advance our understanding of this most interesting practice of the human species.

Some of the best minds on three continents, from four nations, and eighteen of the United States discuss such topics as adultery, commitment, cross dressing, gender politics, date rape, family, friendship, friends as lovers, gayness, love, marital pluralism, marriage, prostitution, religiously motivated anti-queer sentiments, same sex marriage, seduction, and self-respect.

Rather than preach, participants probe our attitudes and practices involving these issues with the aim of better understanding the broad range of sexual practices of our species.

The result is a collection of stimulating essays that can enliven class discussions as well as provide guidance for the sexually perplexed.

The work is accessible to readers from high school through college and beyond.

Love Undetectable Author: Andrew Sullivan Publisher: Vintage Release Date: 2014-07-09 Genre: Social Science Pages: 272 ISBN 10: 9780804152266 GET BOOK Love Undetectable Book Description: I intend to be among the first generation that survives this disease.

Speaking to heterosexual and homosexual audiences alike, this book is about the first steps in that journey of survival.

If Sullivans acclaimed first book, Virtually Normal, was about politics, this long-awaited sequel is about life.

In a memoir in the form of three essays, Sullivan asks hard questions about his own life and others.

Can the practice of friendship ever compensate for a life without love Is sex at war or at peace with spirituality Can faith endure the randomness of death Is homosexuality genetic or environmental Love Undetectable, then, refers to many things: to a virus that, for many, has become undetectable in the bloodstream thanks to new drugs, and to the failed search for love and intimacy that helped spread it; to the love of God, which in times of plague seems particularly hard to find and understand; to a sexual orientation long pathologized and denied any status as an equal form of human love; and to the love between friends, a love ignored when it isnt demeaned, and obscured by the more useful imperatives of family and society.

In a work destined to be as controversial as his first book, Sullivan takes on religious authorities and gay activists; talks candidly about his own promiscuity and search for love; revisits Freud in the origins of homosexuality; and makes one of the more memorable modern cases for elevating the virtue of friendship over the satisfactions of love.

Scholarly, impassioned, wide-ranging, and embattled, Love Undetectable is a book that is ultimately not about homosexuality or plague, but about humanity and mortality.
