Personal Review: S.E.X.: The All-You-Need-To-Know
Progressive Sexuality Guide to Get You Through High School
and College by Heather Corinna
This book may be the best of its kind in English. At last we have something
primarily for teens and young adults which is knowledgeable, helpful,
positive where possible, free of bad biases, and beautifully written.
Even if I don't agree with everything said in the book, I recognize its
extraordinary qualities. On every page I am pleased to see how Heather
Corinna makes luminous sense out of complex issues without
oversimplifying. She guides the reader to think, possibly to do more
reading or other research, definitely to make her or his own choices.
Advice is there aplenty but it's backed up by thought and no little wisdom
--- and reasons for everything.
That is how education should work. This book is in complete contrast to
the sex-negative, unscientific, ideologically biased sex miseducation
foisted on most of America for a long time.
Even if the book's style doesn't captivate every young reader, it refuses to
talk down to people. Its approach is very similar to that of the author's
Scarleteen website, which has a massive and successful following.
The section on relationships (Chapter 6), not primarily about sex at all, is
worth the price of the whole book and then some. Ditto the next chapter's
"sexual readiness checklist" and the equally splendid "top ten really crappy
reasons to have sex with someone."
I bought two copies of this book. One I gave immediately to a 16-year-old
friend who knows more about bodies and sex and has a better attitude
towards both than most people of any age. She couldn't put it down.
From the author's foreword: "So, who's this book for? Everyone."
Yes indeed. How rare it is to find a book about sex written so well with
such understanding, insight, and love.
