 Amazon.com: The Corset : A Cultural History: Books: Valerie Steele
Steele explores the medical controversies that raged around corseting and tight-lacing, the considerable medical and feminist controversies of both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, fashion history, theories of sexuality and politics, and their inevitable intersection.
The history, economics, and sociology of the Renaissance corset are discussed, along with the corset's unmistakable relationship to the earlier armor of Rome and the middle ages.
It's a great read for history buffs interested in Victorian manners as well as modern fashion-hounds who've noticed Britney Spears and Julia Stiles sporting updated corsets on the covers of Cosmopolitan and Rolling Stone magazines.

 Sigmund Freud: 1905
Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality, Jokes and their Relation to the Unconscious and Fragments of an Analysis of a Case of Hysteria ('Dora') appear.
On the case history of the eighteen-year-old Dora, Freud wrote to Fliess shortly after the end of her analysis: "It is the fragment of a hysteria analysis in which the elucidations are grouped around two dreams, hence it is actually a continuation of the dream book.
On publication the Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality causes a scientific scandal.

 Freud, Dora
Freud articulated his theory of dreams and their importance in his landmark work The Interpretation of Dreams (1900), famous today for, among other things, Freud’s explanation of the so-called Oedipus Complex.
  When it became clear that this explanation was improbable, Freud shifted to the theory that hysteria resulted from the repression of incestuous fantasies instead.
You have probably heard elsewhere – for example, in psych courses – that Freud and his theories are history, unscientific, totally discredited, and hence not worth bothering with.

 History of sexuality
This points out that the history of sexuality is not solely the history of different-sex sexuality plus the history of same-sex sexuality, but a broader conception viewing of historical events in light of our modern concept or concepts of sexuality taken at its most broad and/or literal definitions.
Various aspects of sexuality have been taboo in many times and places and there is therefore often a lack of explicit and accurate evidence on which to base a history.
Throughout history, many sexual and romantic relations took the form of pederasty, that is, they were characterized by a marked age difference and the fixed assignment of sexual roles.

 Intersections: Performative Genders, Perverse Desires: A Bio-History of Thailand's Same-Sex and Transgender Cultures
Unlike studies of the history of gay, lesbian, transgender and transsexual identities in the West, the history of Thai same-sex and transgender identities cannot be a 'history of sexuality'.
In this alternative approach to the history of Thai homoeroticisms I draw on the work of feminist critics[13] who argue against the analytical separation of sexuality from gender, which was one of the founding moves that established queer studies as a distinct line of inquiry from feminist analysis.
This finding is the opposite of Rosalind Morris' view that, 'the arguments in The History of Sexuality...

 Newman CV
History of Gender and Sexuality in the United States
One of the central tasks of this book, therefore, is to trace the history of the cultural belief in the incompatibility of civil rights and women's rights that has been deeply embedded in the U.S. political unconscious since the end of the Civil War, surfacing at certain moments with horrifying clarity.
Other studies have analyzed how popular culture, especially Hollywood films, represent the history of civil rights in ways that diminish black men and black women's agency, while still others have explored the ways in which a conservative backlash against the contemporary women's movement has taken on the appearance of a variant of feminism.

 Journal of Social History: Twentieth-Century Sexuality: A History. - Review - book review
In Twentieth Century Sexuality: A History, Angus McLaren succeeds in accomplishing in a little over two hundred pages exactly what his title promises; to provide a history of twentieth century sexuality, at least in the West.
Also McLaren makes good his promise that his book will not be "historically impoverished" like many others by expanding on the key international themes in the history of sexuality since 1900.
His matter of fact reduction of sexuality to a variety of outlets for orgasm divorced procreation from sex altogether and publicised internationally the prevalence of homosexuality.

Current debates in the history of the family and sexuality will be assessed, and you will be urged to explore the similarities and differences between Europe and the Americas, as well as between Ibero- and Anglo-America.

 Journal of Women's History--Subject to Change
For scholars of gay and lesbian history, for example, the interrogation of historical categories was certainly not a new concept; they, after all, had claimed Foucault as one of their own long before others began to subsume his concern with sexuality under a broader discussion of deviancy and discourses.
For her, history is not a clearly and orderly structured textile, a classical concert, or an isolated monologue that requires an awestruck, passive audience; rather, it is comparable to a quilt, jazz, or "gumbo ya ya," a Creole expression for the simultaneous talking of various people.
While histories of great women copied the elitist and exclusivist "great men of history paradigm," analyses of "organized womanhood," facilitated by the richness of sources, were seen to imply that analyses of female activities were worthy of historical attention only if set in the public arena of electoral politics.
