A brilliant exploration of attitudes towards sex and the female body. As funny and lightheaded as possible, but also respectful and serious. An important book

emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

I loved everything until the last section which i didnt really connect to. This is an amazing book, talking about everything women, science of women and so much social stuff. I loved the way sara pascoe used comedy and explained everything in a way i understood, touched on so many subjects, i could not put it down. Very good book. Do look at content warnings.
