Book excerpt: The first installment in the new dark fantasy science fiction series set on a planet called Vulvar, where females rule and all males are enslaved to serve them. What if alien DNA was encoded in your genes and no one told you? Archaeology professor Tobias Hart once would have laughed at such a notion. Hart, orphaned as a small child when someone murdered his father and his mother disappeared without a trace, was reared by an aunt and uncle in upstate New York. Fortunately, after such a tragic beginning, Hart’s life is much improved these days. He’s recently completed a PhD at Princeton and received his first post in the academic world, a tenure-track appointment to teach at Stanford University. Hart is positive he is on his way to realizing his life’s dream, a tenured archaeology professorship at a prestigious university. Until he stops in southwest New Mexico to visit a Native American archaeology site on his way to the West Coast. There Hart’s life takes a most unexpected and dramatic turn. Camping overnight near some ancient cliff dwellings, Hart glimpses an alien spacecraft moments before the aliens abduct him. Soon he finds himself a captive on a strange, dystopian and barbaric planet where females rule and all males are slaves. As he struggles to figure out who abducted him and why, Hart becomes party to a shocking reunion with someone he hasn’t seen in over thirty years, his mother. She reveals that Vulvar is her home planet, and that Hart is half Vulvarian. Next she tells him the most disturbing thing of all. Over her objections, the powers that be have brought Hart to the alien world for use as breeding stock. Like all males on the planet Vulvar, Hart quickly finds himself enslaved, the property of a beautiful but ruthless Mistress. Just as Hart despairs and contemplates ending his own life over being used as a breeding animal and the other realities of the harsh life his captors have imposed on him, they offer him an opportunity to win his freedom. The group of physical, absentee Vulvarian divine entities need someone to find and recover a valuable ancient artifact. Because of his education and experience as an archaeologist, they deem Hart the only being on Vulvar qualified for the undertaking. The problem is they believe the artifact is hidden in the most remote and dangerous region on the planet. If Hart accepts the mission, he may not live to complete it. But, if he finds and recovers the artifact, the deities promise to return him home to Earth as a reward. Hart desperately wants to return home. He wants his life back. But with such an infinitesimal chance of success, is the opportunity at freedom they offer worth dying for?

This book was released on 2018-12-06 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes essential operative techniques that can be used to anatomically reconstruct the outer female genital in acquired deformities derived from ritual genital mutilation/cutting, and diseases causing similar deforming defects. Following an introduction with general insights on the topic, the main chapters deal with basic considerations and special anatomical information. With the help of high-quality videos and images, the reader receives detailed instructions on clitoral and vulvar reconstruction with techniques invented by the author, named the NMCS-procedure, the OD-flap and the aOAP-flap procedures. The book is rounded out with chapters describing postoperative care and how to manage complications. The integrity of their outer genitals is important for patients’ physical and psychological wellbeing. As such, the vulva is now receiving increasing attention and will likely continue to grow in importance in plastic surgery. The author, who has developed outstanding procedures for vulvar and clitoral reconstruction over the years, shares his considerable experience and hopes to highlight the importance of these methods to overcome the burden of female genital mutilation/cutting.

Book excerpt: Tracks the medical emergence and treatment of vulvar pain conditions in order to understand why so many US women are misinformed about their sexual bodies. How does a woman describe a part of her body that much of society teaches her to never discuss? It Hurts Down There analyzes the largest known set of qualitative research data about vulvar pain conditions. It tells the story of one hundred women who struggled with this dilemma as they sought treatment for chronic and unexplained vulvar pain. Christine Labuski argues that the medical condition of vulvar pain cannot be adequately understood without exposing and interrogating cultural attitudes about female genitalia. The authors dual positioning as cultural anthropologist and former nurse practitioner strengthens her argument that discourses about healthy vulvas naturalize and reproduce heteronormative associations between genitalia, sex, and gender. This is an empirically engaged, ethnographically rich interpretation of genital pain in a cross section of womenbut it is also so much more. Christine Labuski has a deep understanding of both the anatomical biomedical construction of female genitalia and manifestations of physical pain and suffering, which she combines with a marvelous cultural analysis of how entangled these biological facts are with the contemporary culture of female loathing and self-loathing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the cultural and economic drivers of the growing phenomenon of FGCS, written by cross-disciplinary experts, this book challenges the concept of individual consumer choice in FGCS: a decision that is rarely exercised in a socio-cultural vacuum. Four distinct aspects of FGCS are covered: variations in female genital anatomy; surgical techniques and evidence; historical contexts and ethical dilemmas; norm-critical understandings to inform professional responses. Rendering philosophical critiques accessible, and exposing dubious social values that underpin the practice, this text is crucial in driving a broader understanding of FGCS as a cultural phenomenon of our times. Only with a fuller understanding of the multiple perspectives of FGCS, can there be sensible alternatives for women and girls psychologically troubled by their natural, healthy form. Offering explanations and interventions at individual, institutional and societal levels, this text will be valued by both professional and non-professional audiences.

Twice Hart has served them faithfully at great personal risk only for the ruthless, callous divine beings of Vulvar to repay him with their utter contempt and subjugation to a life of insufferable agony and misery. Hart heads to a reckoning with the enigmatic divinities of Vulvar, journeying to their remote mountain stronghold, knowing full well that no one who has dared approach the Goddess Queens has ever returned alive. Read the entire saga of this creatively imagined cruel, dystopian world where females rule and males live only to serve them.

Book excerpt: A joyful and indispensable guide filled with astonishing, important, and little-known information about the vagina that will equip a new generation to make informed choices about their sexual health and happiness. The Wonder Down Under is a comprehensive guide to a miraculous and complex part of the body that too few of us (regardless of gender) are all that familiar with--the vagina. With wisdom, humor, and scientific aplomb, medical student Ellen Støkken Dahl and Dr. Nina Brochmann take readers on a fascinating journey of female sexual organs and sexual health--from the clitoris to contraception to cervical cancer. More than a user's manual, this book is the funny, frank tribute to the vagina that we have been waiting for. The Wonder Down Under is filled with astonishing, essential, and little-known information--relayed with both medical expertise and genuine empathy. Did you know, for instance, that female and male sex organs are merely variations on the same basic structure? Or that there's no such thing as a virginity test--because examining the hymen cannot meaningfully indicate whether or not someone's had sex? Brochmann and Dahl have written a tour-de-force about the biology, anatomy, and reality of the female body, examining the many ways in which widespread misinformation and silence about the vagina have been harmful to women over time. The Wonder Down Under makes crucial contributions to the discussion: the book was an instant bestseller that sold out in its native Norway in just three days. Since then it has been acquired by publishers in more than two dozen countries around the world. The Wonder Down Under is a joyful and indispensable book that will educate readers of all kinds and equip a new generation to make informed choices about their sexual well-being.

Book excerpt: Blood will be spilled as a former slave, now a self-made warrior resolves to uncover once and for all the truth about the Goddess-Queens, the existent but remote divinities of the harsh, inhospitable planet called Vulvar. Tobias Hart is the adventurous former archaeologist of Earth now living on an alien planet. Vulvar is a barbaric world with a rigid system of social stratification that includes ritual status in a gynecocratic hierarchy where females rule and enslave all males to serve them. In this volume of the dark fantasy science fiction saga, after completing a second mission for the Goddess-Queens, the fabled mysterious and all powerful deities of Vulvar, Tobias must survive as an outcast when the city council forces him out of his adopted city Thiva. Now regarded by all on the harsh planet as an outlaw worthy only of death, Hart embarks on a search for truth intent on exposing and holding to account the self-serving Goddess-Queens whose insensitive and cruel disregard for their mortal servants resulted in Hart’s eternal loss of the woman he loved. Tobias vows to survive long enough to confront the hateful divine beings, journeying to their foreboding stronghold atop Mount Volz, knowing full well that no one who has dared to approach the Goddess-Queens has ever returned alive. Read the entire saga of this realistically imagined fantasy world where females are masters and males live to serve their every desire. Outlaw of Vulvar is the third book in the Vulvarian Saga, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
