In this fascinating and up-to-date book, the author surveys the ancient assumptions about sexual practices and ideas in China, and then examines present day China with brief descriptions of homosexuality, lesbianism, transvestism, transsexualism, and prostitution. The history of various areas of sexological interest are covered, including sexual philosophy, classical sexological literature, Taoist sexual myths and techniques, erotic fiction, and the political regulation of sexual rights.
Ruan (The Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, San Francisco), the leading authority in his field, presents a comprehensive historical survey of Chinese sexology covering ancient texts, the latest statistics and mass media reports, and his own interviews and correspondence with sexual minorities.

reviewed Sex In China, Studies In Sexology In Chinese Culture on July 09, 2013 Sex In China
Though this book is a bit dated (1994), it is a very interesting report of an excellent survey of a whole gamut of sexual practices, preferences and lifestyles in the U.S. In some respects, the findings are reassuring that we are not in some kind of big decline in sexual morality. One of the more interesting findings is the big difference between men and women when it comes to the question of forcing sexual contact: in this respect men and women live on different planets. That is not to relativize the moral issue of rape; it is to say that men are much too cavalier on the question. That is just one of many insights in the book. I cannot recommend it enough; I learned a good deal. I read it quite deliberately as a starting point for the next book I am going to read, which is a critique of natural law theory.
