Introduction: Liberating Sex -- 2. Desire -- 3.  Sex -- 4. Partnership -- 5.  Sex Trade -- 6. Reproduction -- 7. Conclusion. 330 $aWhat is good sex from the perspective of liberation theology? Thia Cooper argues that sex can be a way to know God. God created humans with a desire to be in relation with each other. From this understanding, sexual desire, sex, and partnerships are re-imagined positively. Good sex is enjoyable and mutual, an aspect of communion. Good sexual relationships share power, empower the participants, and the wider community. From the perspective of liberation theologies and an analysis of biblical texts, the Christian tradition, and the reality of our sexual experience, this book reframes theologies of partnership, sex work, and reproduction through the celebration of desire and sex. . 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aEthnology 606 $aCritical criminology 606 $aSex 606 $aSex (Psychology) 606 $aIdentity politics 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aCritical Criminology 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aPsychology of Gender and Sexuality 606 $aPolitics and Gender 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aCritical criminology. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aSex (Psychology) 615 0$aIdentity politics. 615 14$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aCritical Criminology. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aPsychology of Gender and Sexuality. 615 24$aPolitics and Gender. 676 $a201.7081 700 $aCooper$b Thia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0976813 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300628703321 996 $aA Christian Guide to Liberating Desire, Sex, Partnership, Work, and Reproduction$92225311 997 $aUNINA
