chriss0202's review against another edition

Jeg syns dette er en utrolig viktig bok som alle burde lese, gutter som jenter, og som helt ærlig burde blitt gitt som pensum i skolen. Seksualundervisning i norske skoler er ikke på langt nær så utfyllende som det burdet være og det er som boka nydelig påpeker, mye UNØDVENIG skam rundt dette temaet, noe som hadde blitt fjernet med god gammeldags undervisning og informasjon. Det er også utrolig kult å se hvordan denne boken har fått så stor plass i det internasjonale miljøet!
Når det er sagt er noen ting som jeg følte manglet. Jeg skulle ønske, når de allerede tar opp kjønnslemlestelse, at de gikk mer i dybden enn det de gjorde, ettersom dette er en av de mer alvorlige forbrytelser mot kvinner, og et tema hvertfall svært få nordmenn og vestlig vet om. Jeg syns også at de skulle gått litt mer inn i dybden på hvordan forskjellige underliv ser ut - den store variasjonen det er og hvor normalt det er å ikke vær lik noen andre. Jeg vet de nevnte det, men jeg syns kanskje noen illustrasjoner og bare litt flere ord om det hadde vært fint, ettersom mange unge jenter er skamfulle over «unormale» kjønsslepper feks. Jeg syns også språket til tider er litt for blomstrete, og at poenget forsvinner litt i alle ordene, men ser også hvordan det kan være med til å bidra å gjøre boken som for mange kan være fagtung, mer underholdene.
Jeg syns likevel dette er en generelt utrolig godt skrevet og informativ bok, og et supert startpunkt for å lære mer om det kvinnelige underliv.

Este es un libro educativo, me gustó mucho que está escrito en un lenguaje muy ameno, es como estar hablando con una amiga que sabe un poco más que vos, eso sin dejar de lado el aspecto científico. Está bueno porque tiene un montón de referencias de estudios que respaldan lo que las autoras informan y también tiene mucha bibliografía. También hay muchos expertos consultados.
La parte que me más me gustó fue la del himen, todas escuchamos hablar de esa membrana que se rompe en la primera relación sexual, las autoras dicen que dicho así suena como una especie de nylon, es gracioso porque yo siempre me lo imaginé así. El libro deja bien en claro que no hay ninguna membrana, de hecho explica muy bien qué es el himen y por qué hay tan poca información al respecto.
Además de romper mitos y enseñarnos que nuestro cuerpo no tiene nada de malo y que tenemos que amigarnos con él, es el único que tenemos y tiene que durarnos para toda la vida, el libro tiene tintes feministas, eso me encantó, ya lo van a ver con las frases que puse más abajo.
Hay otros apartados como la mutilación genital o el aborto, que son más cortos, pero son muy interesantes de leer. Es un libro muy completo.

Ce livre est une source d'information précieuse sur un sujet trop souvent éludé, mais certaines parties m'ont parues assez superficielles. En effet, certains sujets auraient mérité d'éteindre davantage expliqués et creusés, quand d'autres parties étaient très longues (on comprend que les autrices sont très pro-pilule).

This book is a gem. No matter how much you think you know about your body, there's always more research being done. It's so valuable to keep up to date and re-evaluate our long held medical beliefs. Our bodies should not be taboo or a mystery to us!
This book is educational and exceptionally well-researched. But its also non-judgmental and humorous. The authors present some dry medical concepts in an accessible and conversational tone. And the illustrations (there are a few!) are cute, helpful, and surprisingly hilarious at times.
It touches on anything you could imagine related to the vulva; anatomy, contraception, sex, psychology, consent, gender, disease, and even the dangers of poor sex education (FGM being the most extreme case). There were so many interesting facts I learned not just about biology, but also about history and society. (Women in ancient Greece used leaves and honey as a form of contraception!)
The notable exceptions in this book are menopause and post-pregnancy. There are a ridiculous number of pregnancy books so I dont think the omission is significant. But I do think a section on menopause would have been helpful! There's so much stigma and ignorance surrounding menopause, we need a book like this to cut through all of the fog.
I would honestly love for this to be required reading in school. Schools don't do enough with health education so women are often forced to take education into their own hands. And that often involves hearsay or women's magazines or Google, which can all be unreliable.
But even if you had great health ed and are not shy about talking to your doctor, what about those things you don't even know you need to know? That's what I liked most about this! I feel more informed. I can separate what's medically proven with what's misinformation (synchronized periods are not a thing! My life has been a lie). I now have a deeper grasp of the science behind different phenomena. And all of this makes me so pleased that I picked this book up. Its definitely something I will continue to reference as needed in the future.

This was actually a pretty good book! I knew a lot of it mainly because I'm curious, but it's great to see research based support on so many topics. Still there were things that I didn't know and that the book gave me some deeper knowledge. And the written style is pretty good as well, light or technical when needed. Did not expect Star Wars jokes in there, for example. The chapters on contraception and abortion were very enlightening for me, some myths were cleared.
Will be a great source to point people towards when they have questions.
Also, this is not a sex tips book, just in case you are wondering. There are some on the sex chapters but they are still "technical" knowledge on how the body works.
