Whatever your age, gender or identity – there’s one thing we seem to all have in common: how little we learnt in school about sex, relationships, gender identity, and sexuality.

This sex-positive resource aims to provide the inclusive sex education you didn’t get in the classroom – complete with illustrations that show our beautiful, baffling bodies in all their glory. With chapters on gender, sexuality and expression, genitalia and hormones, sexual health and contraception, and the importance of boundaries and consent – this comprehensive guide celebrates identities of all kinds – and embraces the difference between cisgender and gender-diverse experiences.

If your school sex-ed was much too cishet, this is the shame-free guide you need to explore bodies, boundaries and pleasure – without a banana in sight.

Reviews

A super comprehensive, friendly, sex ed guide for everybody. Dee has done a wonderful job at demystifying the range of bodies, genders, sexualities, relationship styles, sex practices and more, all while centring consent and queer inclusion.
Meg-John Barker, Co-author of How To Understand Your Gender, Sexuality and Relationships
I needed this book growing up! No topic is off-limits, just as good sex-ed should be. An honest, informative, affirmative & easy read, where trans & queer folk are the main characters. Young, old, queer or ally - this book is for you!
