Abstract:
The anatomy of the clitoris is described in human anatomy textbooks. Some researchers have proposal and divulged a new anatomical terminology for the clitoris. This paper is a revision of the anatomical terms proposed by Helen O'Connell, Emmanuele Jannini, and Odile Buisson. Gynecologists, sexual medicine experts, and sexologists should spread certainties for all women, not hypotheses or personal opinions, they should use scientific terminology: clitoral/vaginal/uterine orgasm, G/A/C/U spot orgasm, and female ejaculation, are terms that should not be used by sexologists, women, and mass media. Clitoral bulbs, clitoral or clitoris-urethrovaginal complex, urethrovaginal space, periurethral glans, Halban's fascia erogenous zone, vaginal anterior fornix erogenous zone, genitosensory component of the vagus nerve, and G-spot, are terms used by some sexologists, but they are not accepted or shared by experts in human anatomy. Sexologists should define have sex, make love, the situation in which the orgasm happens in both partners with or without a vaginal intercourse.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to describe and understand experiences related to social support for women with fibromyalgia who suffer from sexual dysfunction. An interpretive qualitative research methodology based on Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutics was used. Data collection included a focus group and in-depth interviews with 13 women who averaged 44.8 years of age and 14.3 years since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Data were analyzed using Fleming’s method and two themes were identified: “searching for understanding in socio-family support” and “lack of formal support regarding fibromyalgia patient’s sexuality.” The partner constitutes the main support for women with fibromyalgia. Although they can find understanding and social support in patient associations, they lack formal support from health care professionals. Women demand trusted and expert professionals, like sexologists and nurses, to carry out a multidisciplinary approach to tackle sexual dysfunction associated with fibromyalgia.

Abstract:
The study aims to identify factors which contribute to the prevalence of alcoholism and drug addiction among sexually abused women in an ultra-conservative society. A qualitative research design is used in conjunction with interviews from women and physicians, categories which included both psychiatrists and sexologists, across six districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The phenomena of drug addiction and alcoholism were more pronounced in victims working for the commercial sex sector. The findings suggest Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders (PTSD) as a driving factor of alcoholism and drug abuse, which in turn cascades into secondary and tertiary levels of trauma. Sexual victimization and re-victimization, familial rejection, stigmatisation and social degradation were contributing factors to relentless stress. Drugs in vogue among victims were Valium-two (Diazepam) and Lexotanil that contained Bromazepam. Hashish and alcohol were consumed sparingly by victims, while the use of cocaine and heroin was absent due to severe masculine perceptions and addiction. The study contributes to a better understanding of a socially-excluded, economically-disadvantaged and stigmatised group by taking a pro-feminist stance to advocate for the rights of victims.

Abstract:
During the previous decade (2012–2021), in Ukraine, political pressure from the European Union combined with the efforts of the local civil society resulted in the adoption of legislation to prevent and eliminate discrimination, protect women from domestic violence, and promote LGBT people’s rights. Nevertheless, these changes were met by the opposition from various conservative and religious groups that have, over time, become more sophisticated in their resistance strategies. The present article applies the concept of heteroactivism to examine the role of women within such groups in Ukraine. It argues that Ukrainian heteroactivism is a product of the “clash of values” largely influenced by the geopolitical position of Ukraine and its historical and cultural context. Studying the cases of the Sisterhood of St. Olga, the Association of Sexologists and Sexual Therapists of Ukraine (ASSU), and several prominent scholarly figures, the article identifies the mobilization frames these activists use, specifically, Women as Wives and Mothers, Protection of Family and Minors, and Religion (heteroactivism as martyrdom). This study shows that in attempts to influence national policymaking, Ukrainian women heteroactivists set rigid standards of “proper” Ukrainian femininity and the role of women (that of a mother and wife staying outside of politics) within a “proper” Ukrainian family, which must be heterosexual, Christian, and monogamous.

Abstract:
This article describes how men are presented in pornographic materials available on one of the most popular thematic websites — PornHub.com. The article contains a disambiguation of the term ‘pornography’, and discusses the reach of the pornographic market, as well as the audience and specifics of PornHub. The main part contains an empirical study of fifteen movie productions divided into three categories: heterosexual, homosexual, and for women. The article presents both the physical description of what is happening in the film and the analysis of the gender roles of the depicted characters. All selected films were made in 2018 or later. Pornography research is an extremely broad field, which is looked into by many professions: sexologists, film experts, sociologists, psychologists and even feminist activists. Some findings were recalled at work, but this is only an outline of the matter.

Abstract:
This article examines the assimilation of sexology and sexual reform in the Yishuv of the 1930s. Prominent German sexologists visited Palestine, texts they authored were translated to Hebrew and Yiddish, and members of the Yishuv community traveled to central Europe to learn sexual-reform ideas. In 1931 and 1932, three consultation centers were opened in Tel Aviv, accompanied by Q&A columns in the general and medical press. In these centers and columns, men and women consulted medical doctors on contraception, impotence, abortions, and the everyday of heterosexual life. This short-lived experience was inspired by similar European experiences, especially in Weimar Germany and Bolshevik Russia. The 1930s discourse on sexuality was sometimes compatible with mainstream Zionist ideology and sometimes at odds with it. It came to an end during the last years of the decade, following the Arab Revolt, the Holocaust, and the demographic struggle over Palestine.

Abstract:
Introduction and Purpose: Dyspareunia is a sexual disorder associated with pain in women. It refers to pain related to sexual intercourse. Pain can occur during penetration attempts, during penetration, during intercourse, and shortly after penetration. Studies conducted in the United States indicate that the problem of pain during intercourse affects as much as 10-20% of women. [1] In Poland, this number is estimated to be around 13%.[1] The aim of this review is to delve into the existing literature on the diagnosis of dyspareunia in women and to raise awareness of its extensive nature, emphasizing an interdisciplinary approach to patient care. A Brief Description of the State of Knowledge: The etiology of dyspareunia is multifactorial and may arise from pathological changes in the vulva and vagina, inflammatory changes, contact irritations, as well as vulvar conditions such as lichen sclerosus and flat. [3] Additionally, hormonal changes, pelvic floor injuries, postpartum gynecological procedures also play a significant role. Psychological factors such as trauma, anxiety, and depression are also important [4]. Conclusions: Dyspareunia is a condition that significantly affects the quality of life of women in various ways, thus necessitating effective therapeutic approaches. Collaboration among diverse specialists such as gynecologists, sexologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and physiotherapists is crucial. Further research focusing on multimodal strategies is needed to effectively tailor treatments and mitigate the systemic effects of chronic pain.

Abstract:
American self-help authors, coaches, and sexologists selectively adopt and apply Buddhist meditation techniques to meet their goals and sell products. This chapter draws upon books, articles, podcasts, TED talks, and other sources to demonstrate how these new applications of mindfulness are touted to enhance the sex act, delivering greater pleasure or effectively managing dysfunction. Key concepts include analysis of the economics involved in the appropriation of Buddhist practices, the role of gender in the “secular” use of meditation (almost all books recommend mindful sex for women, but few focus on men), the mixed Asian and Western frameworks for understanding the body and the meaning of sex, and the alternate uses to which elements of Buddhism may be put in different cultural settings. A specific genre of the use of meditation serves as a means to explore secular developments that draw upon Buddhist sources in a sometimes uneasy relationship.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter will address how sexology or sexual medicine professionals deal with sexual problems. There are some essential characteristics of sex therapy that are still commonly used in most clinical interventions aimed at solving sexual problems, and some new elements have been incorporated into traditional sex therapy in the last decades. This chapter will describe these elements to clarify what is going on in the sexologist’s consultation room so that the midwife can explain what the woman or the people she is closely involved with can expect when referred there. Based on a very brief case history, the chapter will introduce the essential steps of a possible sex therapy treatment program.This chapter is part of ‘Midwifery and Sexuality’, a Springer Nature open-access textbook for midwives and related healthcare professionals.

Abstract:
AbstractTo have a sexual experience, one does not need to know ‘how sex works’. Besides, the more you think about it at that moment, the greater the risk that it might not ‘work’. However, such knowledge is relevant and essential in the daily practice of the heathcare professional (HCP).This chapter describes the stages of sexual response, from desire, via arousal, to orgasm, and then resolution (and the range of variety). It will indicate some of the changes occurring during pregnancy.The chapter then explores the types and reasons for sexual problems or dysfunctions. The chapter highlights the common problems with sexual desire, sexual arousal and sexual pain problems. Such problems are highly relevant to midwifery practice. They can negatively impact the couple’s or the woman’s general wellbeing and even be a reason for impaired fertility. The ‘3-conditions framework for satisfying sexual experiences’, a simple diagnostic tool to help midwives and other non-sexologist-HCPs structure their clinical reasoning about their client’s sexual problems, is described and applied to sexual problems commonly encountered by midwives. Using this framework to better understand how things can go wrong can help HCPs provide care for women and couples struggling with sexual problems.This chapter is part of ‘Midwifery and Sexuality’, a Springer Nature open-access textbook for midwives and related healthcare professionals.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how women sexologists diverged from their male peers in their analyses of the First World War and its effects. By focusing on the work of Grete Meisel-Hess, Henriette Fürth, Helene Stöcker, and Mathile Vaerting, it shows how they gave greater credence to women’s subjective experiences of the war and challenged their male colleagues’ attempts to blame women for the war’s so-called sexual problems, including the spread of venereal diseases, proliferation of prostitution, decline in birth rates, and “degeneration” of public morality. Most importantly, it demonstrates how women sexologists treated the war as an opportunity for rethinking and transforming sexual life. At the same time, this chapter highlights the persistence of biopolitical concerns in women’s writings—concerns only heightened by the war’s dire consequences.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how Johanna Elberskirchen, Rosa Mayreder, and Grete Meisel-Hess engaged scientific knowledge to criticize masculinity and male heterosexuality. Specifically, they argued that human male sexuality contravened and exceeded the demands and requirements of nature, with negative implications for the further development of the species and civilization. They further insisted upon the superiority of female (hetero)sexuality and sought a greater place for women in the governance of sexual life. However, these theorists disagreed on what was required to reform male sexuality and to emancipate women from men’s purportedly oppressive and excessive sexual demands. Indeed, as this chapter demonstrates, not all women sexologists believed that male sexuality could be reformed.

Abstract:
This chapter explores debates regarding the “true nature” of the female sex drive in the early twentieth century. It focuses on the ideas of Henriette Fürth, Grete Meisel-Hess, Ruth Bré, and Johanna Elberskirchen, who drew upon cutting-edge scientific knowledge to assert that women possessed an innate sex drive that was distinct from the maternal drive and constituted an authentic and independent source of sexual desire. With this new definition of the female sex drive, these authors positioned women as sexual agents, demanded the reform of institutions that governed heterosexuality—above all marriage—and challenged the sexual double standard, which required women (but not men) to remain celibate outside of marriage. This chapter also examines the disagreements these ideas engendered among male and female sexual theorists, and among women sexologists and feminists from the self-defined moderate wing of the German women’s movement.

Abstract:
Sexology opened up new ways of thinking about sexual subjectivity that challenged the male/female binary and its assumed heterosexuality. This chapter analyzes how Anna Rüling, Johanna Elberskirchen, and Rosa Mayreder critically engaged theories of female homosexuality to formulate and espouse non-normative, non-heterosexual subjectivities as legitimate social identities with “natural” needs for social rights and sexual freedoms. All three authors represented their subjects as enjoying a special relationship to the feminist movement and as superior to “normal”—that is, unambiguously feminine and heterosexual—women, who they viewed as limited in their existential possibilities by virtue of their reproductive sexuality. Women sexologists’ insistence that sex was biologically fluid led them on the one hand to argue that sexual diversity ought to be recognized, celebrated, and accepted, and on the other hand to create new hierarchies of political and existential value among different types of women, precisely along lines of sexuality.

Abstract:
The introduction outlines the book’s main goal, which is to describe how, during the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, physicians, psychologists, social workers, sexologists, and counselors came to advocate heterosexual intercourse as the norm for both men and women without overtly acknowledging the effects of that advocacy: the legitimation of male sexuality and male supremacy. The author argues that sex therapy has been, and continues to be, based on a series of pro-male, anti-female assumptions and sustained through practices that treat those assumptions as true. The introduction describes how the research began, how the book is organized, and the kinds of materials and methodologies used to support the observations and conclusions.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores the attraction of racial thinking, and particularly eugenics, for women sexologists. It argues that eugenics’ appeal lay not only in its stress on women’s critical role in racial regeneration, but also in the fact that many eugenicists conceived of sexual ethics in ways similar to many of the female sexual theorists examined in this book. This chapter further demonstrates that eugenics produced more than one kind of sexual politics. Through an in-depth exploration of the work of Grete Meisel-Hess, I show how eugenics, when combined with new understandings of the female sex drive, enabled theorists like Meisel-Hess to argue that women had a right to self-determined sexual experiences, regardless of marital status; to broach a sweeping critique of sexual ethics and arrangements under capitalist patriarchy; and to demand a comprehensive range of reforms to marriage, family law, and the welfare state.

Abstract:
Abstract: Despite wide variation in prevalence rates for all sexual dysfunctions depending on the population and methodology in question, the numbers are staggering. With general prevalence figures for sexual problems reported to be as high as 40% in women and 28% in men, sexual difficulties seem close to normative. Once relegated strictly to sex therapists and sexologists, the assessment of sexual function is increasingly considered an integral part of an overall health assessment. This chapter focuses on the assessment of female and male sexual dysfunctions in adults. It begins with a review of the nature of the conditions, which is followed by a review of clinical assessment instruments designed for the assessment purposes of (a) diagnosis, (b) case conceptualization and treatment planning, and (c) treatment monitoring and evaluation. Recommendations are included for instruments with the greatest scientific support and for assessing these conditions in a clinically sensitive manner.
