Louÿs’s role in French eroticism
Pierre Louÿs (1870-1925) was a French writer and poet who played an important role in the development of French erotic literature in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was known for his highly sensual and decadent style, and his works often explored themes of sexual desire, taboo, and pleasure. Louÿs first gained notoriety … Continue reading Louÿs’s role in French eroticism
Pubic hair in literature
There are many examples of descriptions of pubic hair in literature, both contemporary and historical. One well-known example is from the classic novel “Lady Chatterley’s Lover” by D.H. Lawrence. In the book, the protagonist describes his lover’s pubic hair as “thick and dark,” a description that emphasizes the physicality and sensuality of the female body. … Continue reading Pubic hair in literature
Pubic hair and feminism
The role of pubic hair in history since 1970 from a feminist perspective has been a topic of debate and discussion. Feminists have looked at pubic hair as a symbol of women’s liberation, a way to challenge patriarchal beauty standards, and a tool for reclaiming control over women’s bodies. In the 1970s, the feminist movement … Continue reading Pubic hair and feminism
Marc Manther: The Hunting Lodge
I wrote Nina and Ben’s story, whose car breaks down in the evening and find refuge in a remote hunting lodge after I’ve been watching “Rocky Horror Picture Show” for the umpteenth time. I wondered what would have happened if Janet and Brad hadn’t ended up in Dr. Frank N. Furter’s castle, but in Roissy, … Continue reading Marc Manther: The Hunting Lodge

And in the best case, those should stick around for a long time. I’m currently reading the story “Shaved Bare” by Gale London. … Continue reading Pubic Hair
Greek Feet
Actually, I wanted to write something about different foot shapes for a long time. Somehow I found that then again completely unimportant. Who is interested in whether he has a Celtic, a Greek or an Egyptian foot? Until I came across the novel “The fault is in our stars” by John Green. Hazel, the protagonist, … Continue reading Greek Feet
NAKED IN PUBLIC 3: Free the Nipple Campaign
Similar to the FEMEN activists, the members of the “Free the Nipple” campaign often use their naked torsos as banners. Yet their goals are not nearly as diverse. Nor have they chosen the entire patriarchy as their adversary, but are working on one question: “Why are men allowed to show their naked torsos in public … Continue reading NAKED IN PUBLIC 3: Free the Nipple Campaign
Naked in Public 2: Nakedness as a form of protest (FEMEN)
On March 11, 2013, Tunisian Amina Sbouï published a bare-chested self-portrait on her Facebook page. “My body belongs to me and is not the source of anyone’s honor,” she had written on her naked torso. In doing so, she sparked a furious controversy in Islamic-led Tunisia. She received death threats. A Salafist preacher publicly called … Continue reading Naked in Public 2: Nakedness as a form of protest (FEMEN)
Naked in Public 1 – Nudism
Showing yourself naked in public sounds wilder than it actually is. In Germany, the beginnings of the so-called naturism culture date back to the end of the 19th century. Even then, nudity had an air of rebellion about it. The German Empire was an extremely prudish, reactionary time in which the body had to be … Continue reading Naked in Public 1 – Nudism
