“When I was a young woman, my mom didn’t have the courage to talk to me about sexuality. Luckily, she did have Our Bodies, Our Selves on the bookshelf. THE Sex and Pleasure Book will be that guide for women of all ages to embrace our bodies and our passion. Pleasure is our birthright. Thank the goddess for Carol Queen and Good Vibrations!”
