Klappentext
In response to the limitations of traditional US sex education models, this book presents a groundbreaking approach rooted in ancient practices of self-cultivation.
Shaun Miller critiques existing frameworks-paternalistic, liberal-consequentialist, and liberal-deontological-arguing that they focus narrowly on behavior, outcomes, and consent while neglecting the deeper development of sexual identity and character.
The áskesis model, in contrast, offers a transformative method that emphasizes self-discipline, emotional awareness, and critical engagement with societal norms. By applying this áskesis to modern sex education, the book proposes a curriculum that encourages students to explore their authentic sexual selves and question heteronormative assumptions. The áskesis model moves beyond risk avoidance and simply giving or receiving consent: it empowers individuals to embrace diverse sexual and gender identities while fostering moral and emotional growth.
