Today the romantic and heterosexual idea of ​​the "love of my life" is no longer defended. On the contrary, we can observe the expansion of various sexual practices that were once prohibited or were classified as psychological disorders. As an anthropologist, I consider that the new models of love and sexual relationships are still experimental dynamics that seek to avoid the folds of intimacy: anxiety, submission, conflict, routine, control and dependence. For example, for young generations polyamory is more rational and healthy than monogamous, unsuccessful and infidelity marriages ... and they are right. Jealousy, however, is the key to the failure of open relationships.

A world without taboo is an essential work, because in it Janine Rodiles has gathered a series of voices that explore in depth the diverse scene of sexual practices in these years of the 21st century. Barry Miller, María Esther Oliva, Clay Burns, Ivette Dickinson, the marriage of Rogelio Campos and Rubén Ramírez, and Janine Rodiles defend a non-pathological and non-discriminatory vision, but warn about the risks of irrationality and chaos in expressions postmodern of the various identities and their sexual narratives.

While for some people the current situation means a return to barbarism, for others it is a leap of consciousness and the end of the conventional paradigm, which would result in monogamous heterosexuality as a cultural relic.

Both those who defend and those who oppose the LGBTTTIQ community will find in this work an enriching and fundamental reading to explore the theme of sexual diversity from experience, psychology, sociology and spirituality.
