This book is amazing. After decades of working towards healing, there was always something missing for me... this book filled in the gaps for me and set me on my way to feeling more free and empowered inside my own body.
Again this book is not for the beginner. A few negative reviews appear to me that they were not ready to fully absorb the suggestions. Too much judgement and shame. You need to be in a place in your healing where you can have an open mind, realize that this is talking to people with all sorts of likes -you might dislike many, and that's OK, but try not to judge others. Take what you need, and let the rest go.
No where in this book does she suggest you have sex you don't want.
She offers suggestions and techniques to try to get you back into your body and take back your power from deep within. She walks you through how to actually get through triggers -and avoidance isn't the way out -or we'd be out already, right??
She suggests that you do not do this alone. We all need support. Maybe those that initially feel negatively about this book could consider talking with a professional about the parts they find troubling... so someone can walk them through to understanding.
Sex positive education can feel like "too much" for some people... how helpful was it for our parents growing up in a culture that didn't talk about natural body functions much less sex? The fight for no sex ed in school led to decades of high teen pregnancies... now we can see that sex/health education IS helpful since these numbers have dropped significantly.
NOW, it's time for real sex ed.
YES to Sex Positive Education!
