This is what the cover of this book looks like. Seem familiar? It might.
Congratulations to the author (who used the photo with permission) on the publication of her ethnographic research. I’m looking forward to reading a copy myself.

*gasp* That’s awesome! I loved that picture the first time I saw it; it’s absolutely beautiful, and I think it makes a fantastic book cover.
I might have to read the book.

Ooh, beautiful photo and thanks for the book recommendation. I just graduated with my degree in Anthropology with a focus on human sexuality–I need to read this ethnography!

That looks and sounds like a great book. How lovely to finally see an embracing and beautiful image of male submission, on a book cover too. I love the new blog design, by the way.
