The Presumption Of Sex: And Other Papers is a collection of essays written by Oscar Fay Adams in 1892. The book examines various issues related to gender and sexuality in the late 19th century, including the role of women in society, the concept of masculinity, and the cultural expectations surrounding sex and sexuality. Through a series of insightful and thought-provoking essays, Adams challenges prevailing attitudes and assumptions about gender and sexuality, offering a fresh perspective on these complex and often controversial topics. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural landscape of the late 19th century, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of gender and sexuality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
