The book FAT AND SKIN (Original Vietnamese title: GẤM VÓC VÀ DA THỊT) by Dr. Nguyen Dong Hung (Minh Hung) is a work of Medical Humanities that aims to decode Vietnamese sexual health and psyche through the lens of literary heritage, primarily for young adults, parents, and educators. The author argues that while the primitive Vietnamese mindset (evidenced by the Dao Thinh bronze jar and fertility worship) viewed sexuality as sacred, the subsequent dominance of Confucianism created a Cultural Fracture and an ingrained societal avoidance of the topic in modern sex education. To bridge this gap, the book treats classic Vietnamese literary characters such as Thuy Kieu (analyzing the adolescent brain's hormone storm), Thi Nở and Chí Phèo (exploring Aftercare and the bonding hormone Oxytocin), and Hồ Xuân Hương (affirming Body Image) as Preclinical medical records, using modern science (Neuroscience, Endocrinology, etc.) to heal psychological wounds, challenge deep-seated shame, and promote a comprehensive, compassionate, and responsible approach to intimacy.
