Description

"This essay examines the contradictory behaviors and attitudes toward sexuality and homosexuality in Peru by looking at precolumbian sexuality, which was tolerant of different sexual expressions, and the imposition of the repressive Spanish sexuality based on human reproduction, female virginity, and monogamous sexual activity. The influence of religion, economic development, and devastating plagues on attitudes toward sexuality is also examined"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
