  • Aporia: Erotic Character and Sexual Virtues

    by Jason Stotts Aporia (ἀπορɛία): an impasse, puzzlement, doubt, or confusion; a difficulty encountered in establishing the theoretical truth of a proposition, created by the presence of evidence both for and against it. When thinking about the details of what it would mean to live a good sexual life, a thought occurred to me: shouldn’t there be something like an “erotic…

  • #MedBikini

    by Jason Stotts In the Parts of Animals (PA, 645a17-23), the philosopher Aristotle relates to us a story about one of the most famous philosophers of his time, Heraclitus.

  • Women and Sexuality

    by Jason Stotts In our culture today, we are inundated by the idea that men are nearly incontrollable sex-monsters who will stop at nothing to satisfy their needs, while women do not enjoy sex and have it merely to achieve some end.

  • Best of 2013

    by Jason Stotts As we go into Erosophia’s 9th year, let’s take a step back and see what we did in 2013. Last year was a very busy year for me and Erosophia.  Although Erosophia didn’t place in the top 100 Sex Blogs last year, there were still some really great things that happened and…

  • Havelock Ellis

    by Jason Stotts I recently started reading Havelock Ellis’s Studies in the Psychology of Sex (if you don’t know who he is, he’s very important for sexual theory; see the wikipedia article linked). So far, I’m greatly enjoying them and I’ve only just begun!  In fact, I think I may love Ellis. Here’s some of…
