Sex, Sexuality, and the Anthropologist

by Michael Ashkenazi

Book Overview

The dilemma of whether to cover up or display sexual identities during the course of anthropological fieldwork is an important part of the discipline. Contending that the conventional pose of a genderless, asexual ethnographic researcher is difficult to sustain, this volume shows sex and sexuality as essential components of ethnographic study.
