Biographers, journalists, and satirists have long used the subject of sex to define the masculine character and political authority of America's Founding Fathers.

In Smitten, Rodney Hessinger examines how the Second Great Awakening disrupted gender norms across a breadth of denominations.

The dynamic of religious rivalry inexorably led toward sexual and gender disruption.
