This is such an informative book on sex, and feelings and thought, prostitution, sexual abuse and so much more. This book opened my eyes to a lot of things that I did not know before. It has made me more comfortable with sex for the most part and has made me take action on getting a STI test and a second HIV test. I know that a lot of states would ban this type of book and that is sad. I highly recommend reading this book and especially with a tween/teen.

This book is awful but not for the reasons you think. Chapter 3 has thrown a curveball at me, I was enjoying it until the author who compared Western procedures of labiaplasty to genital mutilation suffered by CHILDREN.
Which is insane. Oppression is not a competition. And comparing a plastic surgery done by a consenting adult in a hospital with anesthesia to a child getting mutilated in a hovel by a midwife with broken glass while awake at the age of 7???? Clearly a man wrote this. Those two situations are not comparable. And to throw in that young women who have been mutilated think their genitals look more pleasing?? No they don’t, they think whatever they’ve been told to think because that’s how oppression works.
I’m having a hard time understanding why this was necessary. Not only was it a bad take but this person should be embarrassed and disgusted with themselves. Glad he’s dead 🖕🏻 rot in hell for comparing oppressions…it’s not a dick measuring contest it’s real experiences lived by REAL women and children

This was a textbook for my Human Sexuality course and found it extremely informative. I was surprised at how much I learned as a 40 year old woman. It also came in handy when having discussions with my adolescents.

Veryyyy graphic book so be warned! But pretty informative and very helpful! I do think the authors are slightly biased against a Christian framework. There were a couple times that they were pretty rude about the Christian faith.

An interesting integration of psychological, social, and biological components of human sexuality, definitely worth reading.

El libro comienza con una buena reflexión sobre las diferencias entre los conceptos, percepciones y costumbres de la sexualidad en diversos contextos culturales, más adelante hace una excelente explicación desde el aspecto biológico de la sexualidad.
Sin embargo, aunque intenta dar explicaciones desde el campo sociológico y psicológico, no fundamenta bien estos dos ejes que estructuran la dimensión "sexualidad".
Es un libro muy bueno para orientar la clase pero requiere de apoyo de otros textos.

I took human sexuality in college as an elective because I wanted an easy A. The course was actually not too bad. In fact is was quite interesting. This was the text book that was assigned that semester. The book has a lot of information and is not presented in a boring matter. I enjoyed the reading for the course.

The best textbook I've ever read so far. LOL. I said that with much of biases since I always love every books that have gay in it. LOL.

I really want to take the class but sadly I can't before I reach 3rd year of college. Guess I would just satisfied with rereading this though.

Amazing textbook for the undergraduate psychology or sociology student interested in sexuality. Has a strong balance between the biological aspects and psychosocial aspects of sex. I have used this textbook in two courses so far and I love it.

[Kymberly · Rating 3 out of 5]

Though I didn't feel that I learned too much more than I already knew, it was very informative on anatomy. I would like to see a different text and see how they presented human sexuality. I don't really have any other text to judge it by.

[Cecily Erker]

This is the main textbook for my Psych course this semester.

[Andy]

This is my Human Sexuality class textbook. By far one of the most interesting textbooks I've ever come across. ;)

[Chris · Rating 3 out of 5]

An interesting read. It is a textbook and a three star rating is about the best I can do for a book like this. It does have some great information and was one the easiest to read that I have had.

I read this for a human sexuality class I took online through SLCC. Awesome book, I learned a lot. Combined with the amazing professor Cathey Carey, you can never go wrong!

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Quite informative.
I read this for my Human Sexualities class. If your school offers it, I recommend taking it.

[Amy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Required reading for school. Again, very interesting stares from strangers whilst reading this.
