Synopsis

Gender and sexual relations have been boiling up in business and the workplace for some time. After the #metoo movement, the environment is muddy and more highly charged than ever. Sex & Business is a book that first discusses some history on feminism and the sexual revolution, to provide that context and foundation. We move into sexual biology and neurochemicals to outline why sexual relations in life, in business, the workplace and in our careers isn’t going anyway!! No matter how many policy documents you write and meetings on equity you have, people spend enormous amounts of time at work and doing business. Things are going to happen. And that should be ok! In fact, I encourage it.

This book covers even more salient and controversial topics such as power relations, patriarchy, sexism, erotic capital, sexual transmutation, slut-shaming, workplace affairs, monogamy, how looks matter and a critique on the #metoo movement and how this has actually had a negative effect on women’s career advancement. I outline the issues this has caused for men, their masculine identity, their confusion on what to say and worries about false accusation and career destruction.

The readers of this book will be empowered with information, strategies and tools on how to navigate these landmines, overcome issues and concerns, take power and control and make fully sanctioned choices in their lives. This book is written with both tongue & cheek humour and academically researched data. My goal is to separate out the topics of legitimate, super important, very relevant and extremely concerning Sexual Harassment and Sexual Violence Cases of which I am not writing about in this book. I want to cover all the other topics that indeed crossover and are peripheral to, but are also separate from those. “Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater” they say. This book will indeed upset those on both ends of the spectrum, and its going against the grain of what is traditionally embraced as acceptable conversation topics at the societal level. How dare I criticize the #metoo movement? One thing is for sure, whenever I discuss these topics with people individually behind closed doors, people are in agreement. At the same time there’s a fear to speak publicly. I feel compelled to bring this into public discourse and I’m not afraid to do it. Sex & Business (ie. Money) are arguable two of the most important aspects of the current human existence and are not going anywhere anytime soon.

Atmosphere Press

Atmosphere Press is an independent full-service publisher for books in genres ranging from non-fiction to fiction to poetry to children's picturebooks, with a special emphasis on being an author-friendly approach to getting a book into the world. We're professional, honest, and kind.

Here’s what we stand for:

Honesty: because our mission is to be author-friendly, that means always giving honest advice about the ins and outs of the authorial life. We are dedicated to sticking by one of our founding precepts: “if I were the author, what would I want to know?”

Transparency: publishing is rife with dodgy behavior, from predatory vanity presses who promise the moon to traditional presses who make book changes without the author’s permission. We’re dedicated to letting you see the wizard behind the curtain, so you can rest easy that everything’s on the up and up.

Professionalism: with decades of combined years of writing, editing, designing, and publishing experience, our staff knows the ins and outs of the industry, and will be responsive and helpful. And of course, we will only publish books that truly contribute something wonderful to the world.

Kindness: as an author-friendly press, we take the word “friendly” seriously. A good publisher shouldn’t be just a business partner, but should be full of people you’d want to invite to dinner. Whether it be making a good joke or allaying your worries about being an author, kindness is our hallmark.

Making Your Book Awesome: we really can’t settle for anything less. We want our authors and their readers to be blown away when they first hold that book in their hands. It needs to look good inside and out, and feel good to the touch. And, of course, the words need to be top-notch, and our editors are devoted to making that the case.
