Introduction

Cocks, H. G.; Houlbrook, Matt

Pages: 1 –18

[I want you to listen to me. I’m going to say this again; I did not have sexual relations with that woman — Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time… never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people. (Bill Clinton, speaking at a press...

Demography

Cook, Hera

Pages: 19 –40

[Historical demography is concerned with external, measurable elements of lived experience, such as births, marriages, income, and household forms. Demography, and statistical sources more generally, offer historians new possibilities for understanding the histories of sexualities in the...

Sexology

Waters, Chris

Pages: 41 –63

[In early twentieth-century Japan, a new, Western ‘science of sexuality’ began slowly to take hold, displacing understandings of sexuality derived from native intellectual traditions. Minakatu Kumagusu, an ethnographer and biologist born in 1867, was an early student of the burgeoning Western...

Law

Cook, Matt

Pages: 64 –86

[This chapter explores the ways in which the law and the courts have helped us to understand sexual behaviour and ideologies in the past. In the historical analysis of homosexuality, prostitution, sexual violence, marriage and divorce, birth control, abortion and the circulation of sexual...

Marriage and Reproduction

Robb, George

Pages: 87 –108

[For most of the history of the Christian West, the Church held that sex was exclusively the province of marriage and was exclusively for the purpose of reproduction. The Anglican Book of Common Prayer, for example, declared that God had instituted marriage firstly for ‘the procreation of...

Race and Empire

Forman, Ross

Pages: 109 –132

[In his essay ‘The Present Phasis of Ethnology’, which forms the concluding chapter to the second edition of The Races of Men: A Philosophical Enquiry into the Influence of Race over the Destinies of Nations (1892), Robert Knox tells his readers, ‘I had but to look at the map of the world at any...

Cities

Houlbrook, Matt

Pages: 133 –156

[It’s rare that historians find themselves writing about a hot cultural issue, but for those exploring the relationship between sex and the city that’s been the case over the past ten years. At present, indeed, it’s difficult to escape popular representations of the ways in which sexual practices...

Religion and Spirituality

Cocks, H. G.

Pages: 157 –179

[Histories of sexuality have tended to recapitulate existing stories of modernity, one of which is the apparently increasing secularization of the world. Our ideas of sexuality appear to follow the same pattern as the decline of religion. Until the nineteenth century, so the story goes, sexuality...

Pornography and Obscenity

Leonard, Sarah

Pages: 180 –205

[A peculiar thing began happening in the 1980s and 90s: pornography and obscenity, long relegated to the margins of serious scholarship, began showing up at the centre of influential historical work. As new generations of historians returned to vital questions — how power operates, why...
Available

Prostitution

Clement, Elizabeth

Pages: 206 –230

[Of the young women patrons of the premises, a large percentage are store employees, telephone girls, stenographers, etc. Their morals are loose and there is no question that they are on terms of sexual intimacy with their male companions. Another class of young women is plainly discernible about...
