Solo Sexuality: A New Perspective on Sexual Health and Wellbeing
Human sexuality is one of the most complex and multidimensional domains of psychological experience — shaped by biology, culture, identity, attachment, cognition, and emotion in ways that no single theoretical framework has yet fully captured.
