Animals, Deviance, and Sex proposes that deviance is a fluid term that advances cultural, gender, human, and societal norms, but deviant labels that presume unequivocally to segregate superior human morality from animal sexuality fail to see the forest for the trees. A plain reading of the word deviance could result in scientific or quantitative classifications. Indeed, animal species may be grouped and analyzed according to relative norms for each species. However, human moral relativism is fundamentally tied to historical and contemporary understandings of human sexuality and human-animal relationships. Animals, Deviance, and Sex argues that traditional and progressive classifications, analyses, and implications of human deviance could authentically be reworked in consideration of anatomy, animal sexuality, breeding, copulation, gender, mating, and nonconsent. Morally and ethically gray areas voluntarily and knowingly traversed by human-animal sexual linkages have expanded and become increasingly normalized by popular culture. Animals, Deviance, and Sex's treatment of these trends is amusingly complex, yet unpretentious, frank, and truthfully concerned with the ethical treatment of animals. Animals, Deviance, and Sex analyzes conservative classifications of deviance, and each chapter assiduously and succinctly tethers animal science, anecdotes, behavior and social science, current events, human-animal relationships, law, and theory using dozens of exotically-themed subchapters. Animals, Deviance, and Sex is a well-organized oeuvre demonstrating professional expertise and experience.
