Gay Shame
Ever since the 1969 Stonewall Riots, 'gay pride' has been the rallying cry of the gay rights movement and the political force behind the emergence of the field of gay and lesbian studies.But has something been lost, forgotten, or buried beneath the drive to transform homosexuality from a perversion to a proud social identity?Have the political requirements of gay pride repressed discussion of the more uncomfortable or undignified aspects of homosexuality? "Gay Shame" seeks to lift this unofficial ban on the investigation of homosexuality and shame by presenting critical work from the most vibrant frontier in contemporary queer studies.An esteemed list of contributors tackles a range of issues - questions of emotion, disreputable sexual histories, dissident gender identities, and embarrassing figures and moments in gay history - as they explore the possibility of reclaiming shame as a new, even productive, way to examine lesbian and gay culture.Accompanied by a collection of films, performance, and archival imagery on DVD, "Gay Shame" constitutes nothing less than a major redefinition and revitalization of the field.

Pressure or shame?
Pressure and shame are both negative emotions that can have detrimental effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Pressure can come from external sources such as work, family, or society, and can lead to stress and anxiety. On the other hand, shame is an internal feeling of embarrassment or unworthiness that can stem from societal expectations or personal experiences. Both pressure and shame can be damaging, and it's important to address and manage these emotions in a healthy way. It's important to seek support and practice self-care to overcome these negative emotions.

Do animals feel shame?
While animals may exhibit behaviors that appear similar to shame, such as avoiding eye contact or displaying submissive body language after making a mistake, it is debated whether they truly experience the complex emotion of shame. Some researchers argue that animals lack the cognitive ability to feel shame in the same way humans do, as it involves self-awareness and a sense of morality. However, others believe that certain social animals may have the capacity to experience emotions like shame to some extent, as it can serve as a way to maintain social harmony within a group.

Do cats feel shame?
Cats do not experience shame in the same way that humans do. While they may exhibit behaviors that appear to be shame, such as avoiding eye contact or hiding, these are actually more likely to be signs of fear or anxiety. Cats are not capable of feeling the complex emotions associated with shame, as it requires a level of self-awareness and understanding of social norms that cats do not possess. Therefore, it is more accurate to interpret their behaviors as responses to perceived threats or stress rather than as expressions of shame.

Is shame in humans an instinct or was shame invented by humans?
Shame is a complex emotion that likely has both instinctual and learned components. It is thought to have evolved as a social mechanism to regulate behavior within groups, promoting cooperation and adherence to social norms. However, the specific triggers and manifestations of shame can also be influenced by cultural and individual factors, suggesting a learned component. Therefore, it is likely that shame is a combination of instinctual and socially constructed elements in humans.

The Shame Factor
A popular clinical psychologist explores an often misunderstood and unrecognized emotion that's the root cause of many self-defeating and harmful behaviors. Emotional paralysis, a distorted view of self, a feeling of being a fraud, lack of trust in others, fear of criticism resulting in underdeveloped talents, and a chronic sense of being worthless, invisible, or disposable--these are typical symptoms of shame.In this book, psychologist Stephan B. Poulter delves into this "primary emotional wound." Distinguishing it from commonplace guilt over a particular moral failing, he describes this toxic emotion as a pervasive but largely unrecognized "emotional cancer," with the power of undermining many aspects of life. Dr. Poulter guides the reader through exercises that teach one to expose this "big secret" and to recognize the triggers in daily life that arouse fears and other negative emotions.Beyond these first steps, he shows how we can continue the healing process of self-acceptance, self-forgiveness, empathy, and a new sense of inner well-being. Based on thirty years of experience with patients of all ages and from many walks of life, this is a book full of insight and understanding, one that can help most of us discover and realize our full potentials.
