Expand description
The book offers both a critical analysis of the key conceptions of human sexuality, such as discussions of the romantic approach to sex and the understanding of sex as body language, and addresses issues in sexual morality, including monogamy, adultery, prostitution and pedophilia. Igor Primoratz shows that many of the prohibitions that make up conventional sexual morality cannot withstand critical scrutiny and should be rejected. He claims that there are no sexual ethics, since sex has no particular moral significance. Ethics and Sex provides an accessibly written introduction to the many issues associated with sexual activity.
