Sinossi

Language Power Shift explores how language has become a focal point in the LGBTQ+ inclusion movement. It examines the evolution of LGBTQ+-inclusive language across various sectors, from media to education, highlighting the power dynamics at play. Language, often viewed as a tool for unity, can also marginalize; this book argues that adopting inclusive language represents a fundamental shift, challenging traditional assumptions and fostering a more equitable society.

The book traces the historical trajectory of LGBTQ+ terminology, revealing how terms have transformed from clinical labels to reclaimed identities. It also shows how inclusive language in policy and legislation can empower LGBTQ+ individuals. By integrating perspectives from linguistics, sociology, and political science, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the forces shaping language use. It progresses from establishing a theoretical framework to analyzing the historical evolution of terminology, examining policy implementation, and exploring inclusive language in education, ultimately offering recommendations for navigating controversies.

This book stands apart through its intersectional approach, recognizing how experiences are shaped by various social categories. Supported by linguistic analysis, policy documents, and original research, including surveys with LGBTQ+ individuals, educators, and policymakers, it offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand the power of language in shaping social attitudes.

Beyond Shame - Creating a...

Matthias Roberts, Tina Schermer...

We all carry sexual shame. Whether we grew up in the repressive purity culture of American Evangelical Christianity or not, we've all been taught in subtle and not-so-subtle ways that sex (outside of very specific contexts) is immoral and taboo. Psychotherapist Matthias Roberts helps readers overcome their shame around sex by overcoming three unhealthy coping mechanisms we use to manage that shame. 
 
 
 
Beyond Shame encourages each of us to determine our own definition of healthy sex, while avoiding the ditches of boundaryless sex positivity on the one hand and strict moralistic boundaries on the other. Define your sexual values on your own terms, overcome your shame, and start having great, healthy sex.
