Description

Explore the historical complexities of non-reproductive sex practices across Asia from 600 to 1950. This scholarly work from the Routledge Contemporary Asia Series examines how indigenous sexual morality was shaped by major religious and philosophical traditions including Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Islam. Western travel narratives, missionary accounts, and ethnographies have often provided graphic or biased descriptions of Asian sexual practices, frequently viewing them through a lens of Western religious morality. This book moves beyond those perceptions to provide a deeper understanding of how local customs and social structures functioned. It investigates the historical realities of practices such as sodomy, bestiality, transvestitism, and incest as documented in various historical records. For students, researchers, and readers interested in anthropology and sociology, this text offers a necessary look at the diverse sexual histories of the Asian continent.
