Here we talk about sex. Specifically, we talk about the fact that we do it less. If you are there shaking your head thinking it's false, because you joyfully copulated no more than three hours ago, great, rejoice in that, but know that this book is also about you. Because sex – whether we do it or not – tells us more about ourselves than we think: who we are, how we feel, what we desire; what our lifestyle is and what relationship we have with our body; what values, expectations, and priorities mark our time; what anxieties keep us awake; what kind of relationships we live and with what strategies we remain true to ourselves. Stella Pulpo investigates the sexual recession in our time, reviewing its causes, outcomes, and recovery margins: from the impact of technology on desire to the arrival of children; from the threats of imminent global catastrophes to personal crises; from the precariousness of relationships to the limits of romantic monogamy. With the right dose of lightness – drama is contraindicated for sex, as we know – the author starts from her personal experience and gathers testimonies and data from recent studies, leading us into an ironic and brilliant reflection on the new consumption and customs of eros. The ending is open and depends on each individual: can we recover the humanity of meeting the other? Can we rediscover the value of a healthy, free, and obscene romp?
