- Description
- In this publication, the author restores the work of female sexologists to the forefront of the history of sexology. While male researchers who led the practice of early-twentieth-century sexology viewed women and their sexuality as objects to be studied, not as collaborators in scientific investigation, she pinpoints nine German and Austrian ‘women sexologists’ and ‘female sexual theorists’ to reveal how sex, gender, and sexuality influenced the field of sexology itself.
