'Intermediate Sex: A Study of Some Transitional Types of Men and Women' Summary
In The Intermediate Sex, Edward Carpenter explores the concept of "intermediate sex," arguing that homosexuality is a natural and legitimate variation of human sexuality. He draws on history, mythology, and personal experience to support his thesis, challenging the prevailing negative views of homosexuality in the early 20th century. Carpenter's work was groundbreaking in its time and remains an important contribution to the literature on sexuality.Book Details
