description: Throughout the ages woman has been worshipped as Madonna and goddess, and vilified as an insatiable demoness whore. Female sexuality is a subject of fascination and fear. And it is precisely because of this "schizophrenic" attitude, and the concept of "sin," that female sexuality has been and remains the most controversial and most misunderstood subject on the planet. In this text, Joseph throws "political correctness" to the wind, and tells it like it is, beginning with the primate and biological origins of female sexuality, and tracing the evolution of her sexuality, and the development of her breasts, buttocks, and unlimited sexual receptivity, over the course of evolutionary history. The story begins with Australopithecus and Homo Habilis, and continues with the evolution of Homo Erectus, female choice, and the domestication of man. Joseph explains the origins of lesbian sexuality and competition between women, including (for some), the uncomfortable fact that women, on average, have more sex, and more sex partners than the "average" man. Sexuality: Female Evolution and Erotica, is based, in part, on Dr. Joseph's pioneering research on the biological, hormonal, environmental, and evolutionary foundations of sex differences and sexuality--research he first began publishing, in esteemed scientific journals in the 1970s. This research includes his most recent scientific monograph, on sexual evolution, which recently appeared in the esteemed scientific journal: the Archives of Sexual Behavior.
