Topics include how classifications of sexual passion reveal the classifier's values; the conditions under which “giving in” to one's sexual impulses may take precedence over pursuing one's longer-term goals; the possibility of there being an “agapic” (value-bestowing) form of lust similar to agapic love; the need to distinguish passionate from dispassionate desires in any adequate analysis sexual desire; how one's awareness of sexual anatomy-along with certain contingencies of psychosocial development-may help to explain the personal significance of sexual attraction; how sexual attractions can be assessed as rational or irrational in the same way as certain emotions; the importance of the physiological, phenomenal, psychological, and social dimensions of sexual orientation and identity; how asexuality or being ace might be a sexual orientation like being gay; how to best understand the appeal that kink and BDSM have for some autistic people; the unique difficulties encountered by trans women interested in having sexual or romantic relationships with nontrans men; the complex sexual dynamics found within sexual liberation movements; and finally, how we might have a political right to sexual pleasure even if no individual has a duty to provide us with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLarry A.
