The Evolution of Taboos: A Journey Through Sexuality and Identity
This chapter examines how societal taboos, particularly around sexuality, have evolved over time, with a focus on the influence of figures like Freud and the sexual revolution of the 1960s. It discusses the historical progression of the gay rights movement, key organizations, and the significant events that shaped modern LGBTQ+ activism, including the Stonewall Inn riots. Additionally, the chapter reflects on the changing representation of LGBTQ+ individuals in media and the ongoing contradictions within feminist and queer movements in today's society.
