There were some great ideas in this. I wish it had been fleshed out more and went deeper. Still plenty of think about and I really like how it challenges you to define what sex is to you.

I would definitely recommend this book to others, as it's pretty inclusive, and lines up with a lot of ideas I have about sex (specifically what counts as sex, and the chapter about consent and bringing that out into all aspects of society). Having said at, I think I read this book about 10 years after it would have been helpful for me, so I've decided not to give a rating.

This was an awesome and inclusive book by Meg-John and Justin, full of practical suggestions and highlighted a range of diverse strategies to assist readers to unpack to enhance their potential for pleasure, sexuality and relationships.
This book offered an evaluation and critique of mainstream sexual advice which was necessary and hit the target every time, offering relevant and inclusive strategies in place of the less helpful ones the book critiqued. Unlike other texts on sexuality, this guide was easy to follow and relevant to a range of bodies and sexual experiences. Meg-John and Justin recognised the complexity and uniqueness in folks’ experiences, the conflicting messages folks receive about their sexuality and honoured and respected difficult experiences and feelings throughout.
This is a great resource for anyone working in the field of sexuality or wellbeing. It’s highly recommended for those who want to diversify their sexual and pleasure experiences as well as challenge, unlearn and relearn the unhelpful messages and sex advice that people are so often exposed to in the dominant culture, with accurate, affirming, inclusive and shame free sexual support and guidance.

Very inclusive discussion that avoids judgement and teaches a very open approach, an open way of thinking and a language that allows discussion. No groundbraking insights for me but still nice to read.
