The other day I went to a high school where the second-year students had read Biography of FireThis book is certainly not the most suitable for high school students, because some of the stories deal with themes that may be too distant for them, and, in general, it has a level of complexity that, given the current state of reading comprehension, suggests it might not be easy for them. However, these talks in secondary schools are always interesting, especially because you realize they're surprised that writers are normal people. And part of the job is this: to get teenagers to stop seeing us as a kind of repressed, old-fashioned bookworm who doesn't write about life but about empty intellectual abstractions. This talk was also interesting, especially when the topic of sex came up.

She is the first person in her family to attend university. She graduated in English Philology and became interested in surveillance studies in modern literature. A Fulbright scholarship brought her to the United States in 2014. She currently teaches at Barnard College, Columbia University, a center for gender studies. Her thesis is titled: Algorithmic love, reorganization of romantic love.

The first place adolescents begin to express their identity is in their room. Sometimes they do this by wanting to rearrange furniture. These changes are related to the process of identity construction. The gesture of closing the door signals that the young person begins to seek privacy, to explore and find their innermost being. "It's the beginning of the process of more active identity construction. It usually happens between the ages of 12 and 15, although some young people never need to do it," says Sara Desirée Ruiz, a social educator and psychotherapist specializing in adolescence. What she suggests to families is to observe, and when adolescents begin to close the door, the family should knock before entering.

With his previous short, Suc de síndria (2019), Irene Moray (Barcelona, 1992) won both the Goya and the Gaudí and was nominated for the European Film Awards, more than enough to mark her as a great promise of Catalan cinema. Six years later, and while working on her first feature film, Moray premieres a new short film at the Locarno Film Festival, Plankton, which tells the story of the reunion of two university friends in Cap de Creus. Repressed emotions, the liberating energy of sex, and the sensual dimension of nature are still present in Moray's films, which this time add a magical and poetic element to his images.

Clubs swinger, parties sex positive, shibari, introduction to BDSM, tantric experiences... The leisure offer focused on sexual experimentation is gaining visibility in different spaces in Catalan cities. "First, we talked about liberal sex, and now we talk about sex positive [or pro-sex], which refers to openness to experimenting with sexuality and is more open in terms of sexual orientation and the diversity of practices," explains Marina Vivó, psychologist and sexologist. "Openness does not mean the obligation to have sex," she clarifies. In fact, consent and respect are. This is where discretion and confidentiality predominate, which at the same time makes them quite hermetic - also because social media policies censor their promotion.

This book is part of a long tradition of autobiographies by what are now called "sex workers." And it is being published now, just as the publication ofStory of my eight sins, by Lea Ferrer (pseudonym). Both volumes are among those offered on Amazon under the heading Real facts.

There has been a lot of literature – or meta-literature – about the process of writing a book. These writers suffer for every sentence, drunk or drugged, secreting an infinite pain in having to produce a text with the doses of originality or at least formal gravity and drama that justify their herculean effort. Dick or the sadness of sex, instead, I imagine its author, Kiko Amat, having a great time with his writing. Because although what is addressed is an outrageously traumatic sexual experience, the author's intention and the resources he puts at his service are still completely humorous.

Catalan actress Anna Castillo sat on the sofa this Tuesday night The revolt to present the new series Your Majesty. But before getting into the subject, Broncano asked her the "classic questions" about money and sexual activity regarding all the guests when they visit the RTVE program. With the naturalness that characterizes her, the interpreter seemed disconcerted by the questions. Even so, she answered the questionnaire with "forcefulness", according to the presenter.

Save the Children has warned of the normalisation of abusive behaviour in terms of gender violence among teenagers and young people, especially on social networks, but not only. What is happening? The generation gap in this case would imply a step backwards. In this field, the advances in awareness-raising, surely too slow but apparently sustained, have marked the last decades. In this time, female empowerment in the face of sexist behaviours which were once fully accepted has made its way into people's minds and into public opinion. In fact, in a short time there has been an acceleration in demands, especially since the global MeToo movement. But, apparently, there is another side to it: this discourse of women's liberation and of cornering both explicit and more subliminal sexism seems to be receding among young people. In Spain as a whole, one young man in five denies the existence of gender violence, and one in three believes, for example, that it is "inevitable or acceptable" to control their partner's schedule, prevent them from contacting family or friends or tell them what they can and cannot do. Surveys have no absolute value, but they do indicate trends. In this case, a rather worrying trend, since we are not talking about a certain relativism, but about denying the root cause. In other words, we would be facing a clear involution, a kind of counter-reform in the mentality of the young.

Male and female. Masculine and feminine. This binary classification of the world leaves out many people who do not identify with it. They are the people with other gender identities and sexual orientations represented by the acronym LGTBI+. The new generations claim this diversity and push society to look beyond genitalia.
