Social Identity

A far-reaching cultural transformation is occurring across much of the West that is threatening the very foundations of democracy. Individuals are no longer judged by their deeds, actions, and behavior but rather are defined by their race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. Driven largely by the political Left, this transformation has led to the wholesale division of individuals into oppressed and oppressor classes.

People research everything online - shopping, school, jobs, travel - and other people. Your online persona is your new front door. It is likely the first thing that new friends and colleagues learn about you. In the years since this book was first published, the Internet profile and reputation have grown more important in the vital human activities of work, school and relationships.

Wir müssen zuhören, um zu begreifen. Und wir müssen uns die richtigen Fragen stellen und verstehen, was uns Angst macht. Dabei klar und sachlich aufklären und argumentieren. Das alles tut dieses Hörbuch, das mit Dagmar Pauli eine Psychiaterin verfasst hat, an deren Klinik bereits vor 15 Jahren eine regelmäßige trans-Sprechstunde eingeführt wurde.

Il Tantra è la metodologia che permette di purificare l'amore da tutto ciò che lo avvelena. Per capirlo, è essenziale partire da una comprensione fondamentale, ovvero che noi siamo una realtà energetica, ed esiste un'unica energia vitale che opera attraverso di noi. Come Osho spiega, "è la stessa energia vitale che al livello più basso si manifesta come energia sessuale, e al livello più elevato si manifesta come spirituale. Pertanto, secondo me, non esiste opposizione di sorta, nessun conflitto."

Our society is undergoing an evolution, and we should take this as a call to action to ensure that all people, regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, age, ethnicity, race, religion, or social class, are treated as humans worthy of respect.

Michael Nast, seit seinem Nr.-1-Bestseller das Sprachrohr für die Generation Beziehungsunfähig, hat neue Nachrichten für seine Leserschaft: Den Traumpartner unserer Vorstellungen, der unseren mannigfaltigen Anforderungen entspricht, gibt es nicht! Die Gründe für das ständige Scheitern unserer Dates und Beziehungen sind unsere falschen Idealvorstellungen, gepaart mit dem eigenen Selbstoptimierungswahn und unserer Darstellungswut in den sozialen Medien. Dem Ganzen setzt die Oberflächlichkeit und Unverbindlichkeit der heutigen Dating-Apps Tinder und Co. dann noch die Krone auf.

Verständnis. Vergebung. Neubeginn: der inspirierende Aufruf von Bestsellerautor Veit Lindau zur Versöhnung der Geschlechter. Die anstehenden Herausforderungen der Menschheit - individuell und kollektiv - sind nur durch eine neue, bewusstere Cokreation der Geschlechter zu lösen. Paare können an Krisen zerbrechen, Männer und Frauen sich ewig an alten Wunden zerreiben, oder aber in eine völlig neue Dimension an Ehrlichkeit, Intimität und WIR-Power hineinreifen.

Flight, Flight, Mimic is the first systematic study of deceptive mimicry in the context of wars. Deceptive mimicry—the manipulation of individual or group identity—includes passing off as a different individual, as a member of a group to which one does not belong, or, for a group, to "sign" its action as another group.

It’s hard to overstate how much we put pressure on early sexual encounters—and how little real advice is out there. How do I deal when I keep running into my one-night stand? How can I tell if I’m too drunk to have sex? How do I say stop when I’m not really into it? Why do I keep getting all these UTIs? And most of all: Why is so much of sex ed focused on what could go wrong instead of what actually feels good? In this unflinchingly honest guide to hookups and relationships in the twenty-first century, Ali Drucker answers these questions and more.

Wie kann ich verhindern, dass ich zu früh komme? Wie schaffe ich es, überhaupt zu kommen? Warum habe ich so selten Lust?

Wie Sex überraschend einfach zu einem lustvollen Erlebnis werden kann, zeigt Gianna Bacio auf ihre typische Art: ehrlich, direkt und auf Augenhöhe.

In 1978, 56-year-old Leoma Patterson left a bar in Clinton, Tennessee, and was never seen again. Six months later, a female skeleton was found on a wooded lakeshore in a neighboring county. The bones were consistent with those of the missing woman, and one of Patterson's daughters recognized a ring found at the death scene as her mother's. The bones were buried, and six years later, a relative of Patterson's - one of the men she was last seen alive with - confessed to killing her. Case closed.

Today's young women are told we can be anything, so we search for a love to back us, not hold us back. We want the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle kind of love, not Prince William and Kate. Yet, while we unapologetically own our careers and lives and Bumble accounts, we're still unsure whether men truly accept - let alone desire - the women we have become. We are told to lean in at work but wait for him to call. To ask for the pay rise but not his number. We are ambitious at work but confused in love.

The intention of this book is to open up a space for reflection and awareness of some aspects of the vast topic of female psychology, romantic relationships, and regaining your personal power by opening your heart to yourself. The central focus is the subconscious dynamics of female spirituality and the basic male and female archetypes, along with their strengths, fears, and possibilities. This understanding is valuable in order for every partner to become a complete personality who can accept their strengths, as well as their shadow aspects—those that we hide from ourselves.
