Customer Reviews

4 stars Twentieth-Century Sexuality: A History
I found McLaren's main message that nearly all attempts at restricting recreational sex were in fact replaced by new modes of restraint. These restraints only appear to be more liberal in nature. McLaren's pace at which he presents his evidence is brisk but not excessive, and the examples that he gives from the primary sources from the past century will make you either laugh in disbelief or cringe at America and Europe's attempt to construct a "healthy" "normal" society.
