‘It’s the kind of book that makes you wonder, ‘why wasn’t this written before?’ It could change lives’ EVENING STANDARD

‘Turns everything you’ve been taught about sex on its head’ RUBY RARE

What lies are we told when it comes to sex?

What impossible expectations pollute our health, our happiness and our access to fundamental human rights?

Bringing together deep research with intimate, real stories – from women who pay thousands for hymen reconstruction to men who fear their inexperience defines them – this is a revitalisation of sex education for the twenty-first century.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Impactful, & insightful - couldn’t put it down
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 13, 2023
    An incredibly well written book, looking at the issues with sex education and beliefs which has opened my eyes. Love the writing style and I hope the author writes more !

    5.0 out of 5 stars This book sure busts some myths!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 1, 2023
    Definitely don't listen to one bad review which quite frankly seems to have an agenda on one very small part of a well structured and incredibly informative text. Very much something you can dip in and out of, but incredibly poignant. If only all young adults, hell all adults were aware of the myths and common misconceptions- imagine the equitable relationships we could all be having!

    As a father of an almost teenager, I found this book very interesting to understand what's out there compared to when we were young.

    Why wasn’t this book around when I was a teenager. Such great, accessible, informative writing.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An important and timely book
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 21, 2022
    Sophia is a brilliant journalist, and she brings all her journalistic acumen to this book. It's educational, at times alarming, but always eloquent and sensitive. This felt to me like an important and timely read and I would recommend it to anyone.
