Not for the faint of heart.
العصاب هو سمة المجتمع الأبويإذا كان الجزء الأكبر من المجتمع يعيش الجنس اقتصاديًا ، فلا يمكن أن تكون هناك أمراض عصابية ، وذلك ببساطة لأن هذه الاضطرابات تنشأ عن الحياة التناسلية المثبطة. هذا هو الاستنتاج الذي يجب أن نتوصل إليه إذا اتبعنا باستمرار نظرية الغريزة الجنسية ونظرية العصاب. ومن النتائج الأخرى لتحقيقاتنا الاجتماعية في أصل وتأثير النظرة السلبية للجنس هو اكتشاف أن هذه الأخلاق هي التي تجلب القمع الجنسي و تثير ركودًا جنسيًا. من خلال ذلك ، فإنها تحول النزاعات النفسية اليومية إلى صراعات عصابية.ع...

Marxist sociology + Psychoanalysis = This bookAll around excelent.

"Why you're fucked up sexually, how it happened, and how to treat it so you can finally have the awesome splurging multiple semen explosions that you deserve"It's like this book was written for me.And no one's fucking read it.Comeon guys. Am I the only one who cares about great sex?Anyway, bare eye opening, and puts in perspective a lot of the baseless and fearful sexual views of modern culture.
from back of the book:"This study of the invasion of compulsory sexual morality into human society was written in 1931 and now appears for the first time in the English language.
