Practical Guide to Sex (eBook)

Plenty of books on sex suggest that it has to be done in a certain way, or in a certain kind of relationship, or with certain people. This isn't that kind of book.  Enjoy Sex is a truly practical, friendly guide through the confusing, and sometimes alarming, world of sex and sexuality. Its radical approach puts your experience at the heart of the book, and invites you to explore what might be enjoyable to you.  With the authors' engaging and thoughtful style, the book challenges the messages we receive about 'normal' sex, looks at how to understand and care for yourself, delves into ideas of pleasure for different bodies, ages and tastes, explores relationships, and tackles the tricky topics of communication and consent.  So, throw out the rule book and learn to listen to your own desires. This may just be the most helpful book about sex ever.
