We don't think too much about sex; we're merely thinking about it in the wrong way.So asserts Alain de Botton in this rigorous and supremely honest book designed to help us navigate the intimate and exciting---yet often confusing and difficult---experience that is sex. Few of us tend to feel we're entirely normal when it comes to sex, and what we're supposed to be feeling rarely matches up with the reality. This book argues that twenty-first-century sex is ultimately fated to be a balancing act between love and desire, and adventure and commitment. Covering topics that include lust, fetishism, adultery, and pornography, Alain de Botton frankly articulates the dilemmas of modern sexuality, offering insights and consolation to help us think more deeply and wisely about the sex we are, or aren't, having.
Alain de Botton is the bestselling author of "How Proust Can Change Your Life, " as well as numerous other works of fiction and essays. He is well-known for making complex philosophical and artistic subjects accessible for a wider audience. De Botton founded the School of Life, a series of lectures in London that aim to make academic learning applicable to real life. With the success of the school, this concept was adapted into The School of Life book series. De Botton lives and works in London.
刚刚开始看,可能是一直对这个问题比较感兴趣的原因吧,让我看的很慢,一字一句的都要读到。 以前的中国,包括现在,对于性这个问题都是比较难以启齿的,其实这并没有什么值得羞愧的,只是我们长大成人后的一种生理需求或者说是对于精神归宿的一种渴望,就像书中说到的,因为孤...

评分摘一些德波顿写的出彩的部分。 > 性基本上就没有所谓的民主和善良一说;它摆脱不了残忍与侵犯的行为,也摆脱不了征服与羞辱的欲望。性拒绝建立在爱情的基础之上,尽管它本应如此。 > 这个决定性的初次时刻,令我们从两个相对陌生的人,变成了亲密性伴侣,这个时刻令人心...

观点挺有趣,但是全是作者一人瞎想,论据是几乎没有……但这段让我眼前一亮:‘I promise to be disappointed by you and you alone. I promise to make you the sole repository of my regrets, rather than to distribute them widely through multiple affairs and a life of sexual Don Juanism. I have surveyed the different options for unhappiness, and it is you I have chosen to commit myself to.’
评分二分之三后弃。许多观点不能苟同也就算了,总觉得有点胡言乱语的邪教气质。完全学不到新东西,也许再年轻一点时看接受度会更高一些。
评分为啥我觉得他就一直在布拉布拉布拉?一定是我打开方式有问题。
评分还是挺长姿势滴
评分部分观点个人觉得略荒谬,但整体还挺值得一看的。
