Abstract:
In most scientific papers, female sexuality is represented from the point of view of physiology. In "History of Sexuality", Michel Foucault introduces the term "superknowledge of sexuality," stating that this notion "is not developed at the level of the individual, but at the level of culture and society." According to Foucault, the knowledge of contemporary society of sexuality coexists with the inability to realize our own sexuality. Knowledge of sexuality is rather theoretical, philosophical, analytical, but not personal.We will explore the nuances of female sexuality in the works of classi

Youth is a period characterized by impulsiveness and risk-taking. This population often feels invulnerable and has a strong motivation to seek out their identity. These characteristics make it a risky age period for an unwanted pregnancy.

Through a close analysis of the film, the paper proposes to examine how the protagonist, Laila, a young woman with cerebral palsy, navigates her desires and relationships while dealing with the challenges posed by her disability. It is my contention that the film challenges the dominant narrative of disability as asexuality and incapable of experiencing love or sexual desire while portraying Laila's sexuality and desire as a normal and important part of her life.

The articulation of her overt sexuality in the novella offers a new gateway of understanding a ‘female self ’.
