Signs of Sexual Behavior: An Introduction to Some Sex-Related Vocabulary in American Sign Language by James Woodward
Collection of signs of sexual behavior, with an excellent note at the beginning highlighting all the important aspects of the usage of those signs -- why this book is appropriate, the sociolinguistic variation and the need to know local signs, the differences in meaning with the hearing community, stress on the need to be respectful. This is a really good linguistic resource. (It is also extremely interesting from a morphological perspective -- this book fairly cries out for a short show more "morphology of sexual signs" research paper, with its thrice-gendered signs for mutual and single-actor sexual activity....) show less
