If there are two subjects that are universally fascinating
and rife with controversy, they are sex and fat. Though our
culture is obsessed with both, the two commingling are
sometimes seen as offensive, obscene, or even grotesque. Fat
people are not viewed as sexual beings. Of course, this
perception is far from accurate. Fat people have normal and
peculiar sex lives, just like everyone else. A compilation
of true stories, cultural references, and narrative
commentary, "Fat Sex: The Naked Truth," tells the honest,
and often heroic, heartbreaking, and hilarious experiences
of large-size women and men in their romantic, intimate, and
sexual relationships. Subjects touched on include
heterosexual relationships, gay men and lesbian women, those
who have gained and lost a great deal of weight, and the
sexual “underground” such as fetishes. Although the people
portrayed in "Fat Sex: The Naked Truth" sometimes face
bigotry and experience shame – they are often valiant and
live remarkably fulfilling lives. The stories are compelling
and told with sensitivity and wit, connecting people on
profoundly important aspects of their lives. This book is
not just for large-size people. The stories and issues
discussed touch all of us, each and every person who has
ever experienced the trials and tribulations, as well as the
ecstasies, of intimate relationships.
