Appetite : Sex, Touch, and Desire in Women with Anorexia, Paperback / softback Book

Appetite : Sex, Touch, and Desire in Women with Anorexia Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The first comprehensive resource on anorexia and women’s sexuality in the world, this book presents a model for understanding sexuality as complex with interconnected factors, and how anorexia interacts with the varied components of one’s sexuality. Challenging the limiting views of sexuality that research on women with anorexia and sex has yielded, Dr. Fabello centers real women’s narratives to explore the various ways in which this population wrestles with sexual health, violence, intimacy, identity, and more.

Included is unprecedented research on how women’s level of desire for sensual touch interacts with body image, body perception, and a unique need for sexual autonomy. Written in an honest voice, Appetite bridges the gap between academia and practicality, using grounded language that appeals to professionals and survivors alike.
