I love this book. I have used it to do some research on alternative sexuality (BDSM/Fetish) and the religious impact on our reproductive lives.I love the photos and illustrations: They help one see the beauty of our bodies and serve as visual Enneagram which capture our attention and illuminate the prose and scholarly information within.This a book for seekers who are wanting a spiritual approach to learning about sexuality and their spirit. It is not for religious prudes, ultra-conservatives who feel that sexuality if just for heterosexual procreation.This books takes you beyond vanilla and explains how religious institutions mapped out and claimed ownership of our bodies, forever changing our ability to see ourselves freely.
