Posts Tagged ‘Imaginative Sex’
For decades the fictional world of Gor has been John Norman’s testing and proving ground for his advanced but controversial principles of relations between male and female. Thirty-five years ago Norman produced Imaginative Sex, a guide revealing his vision and describing those principles and the philosophy behind them. Unfortunately, as social and publishing mores shifted toward the reactionary, that book fell out of favor, and there it has lain – until now. If you’re interested in learning how Norman’s books were marginalized before being restored to their current place of honor in the world of fantasy and science fiction, you can read about it in Are John Norman’s Gors “Boy-Books”?
E-Reads is proud to restore Imaginative Sex both to yearning devotees and to a new generation of Norman fans. It’s available now for download and paperback.
The titles of the first nine chapters include”Imaginative Sex: The New Sexual Revolution”, “Love, Hunters and Evolution,” “Marriage, Sex and Normality,” “Sex and the Brain,” “Marriage and the Ventilation of Emotions,” “Privacy,” “Disease,” “Requirements for Imaginative Sex,” and “Imaginative Techniques.”
Norman details and develops his theories and ideas about sex in the modern age, and in the tenth chapter, “Sensuous Fantasies: Recipes for Pleasure” he presents fifty-three scenarios designed to reintroduce fantasy and intimacy to the bedroom. Examples include “The Aphrodisiac Fantasy”; “The Rites-of-Submission Fantasy”; “The Lady Fantasy”; “The I-Am-His-Slave-Girl Fantasy”; “The Safari Fantasy” and “The Blindfolded-Lovers Fantasy” as well as many other sensuous suggestions, detailed for the enjoyment of all truly adult readers. Find out what really lies behind the philosophy of Gor and the ways in which role playing can enhance everyone’s love life.
And anyone interested in John Norman and his magical world of Gor is invited to visit The Chronicles of Gor website.
