The History of Sexuality by Michel Foucault

From DonJuan Wiki

... under the picture of the breaker of the rules of marriage, as the thief of wifes, seducer of virgins, shame of families and insult for men and fathers - appears another person: human character led against his own will by obscure craziness of sex. under image of epicurean is a pervert. he deliberately breaks the law, at the same time driven by kind of fallacy nature far away from any nature... let the questioning was he homosexual, narcissistic or impotent to psychoanalysts...

"Rather than the uniform concern to hide sex, rather than the general prudishness of language, what most distinguishes these last three centuries is the variety, the wide dispersion of devices that were invented for speaking about it......" ibid

" Sexuality must not be described as a stubborn drive, by nature alien and of necessity disobedient to a power whcih exhausts itself trying to subdue it and often fails to control it entirely. It appears rather as an especially dense transfer point for relations of power: between men and women, young people and old people, parents and offspring, teachers and students, priests and laity, an administration and a population. Sexuality is not ther post intractable element in power relations, but rather one of those endowed with the greatest instrumentality: useful for the greatest number of maneuvres and capable of serving as a point of support, as a linchpin, for the most varied strategies" Foucault
