When it comes to sex, everyone sometimes feels awkward: we don't want to seem ignorant, insecure, afraid that we won't be accepted, won't understand, or just that it will be "not very". Even discussing what's what with partners does not always have the courage. But why are we so shy about talking about sex? Where do sexual fantasies come from, how do they help us and can we divide them into "normal" and "strange"? What do all these unfamiliar words mean — "rabbing", "toing", "compersion" and what practices are behind them? How to please yourself and another person? And how to understand what we want ourselves? In her book, sex educator and writer Sasha Kazantseva answers these and dozens of other questions in detail. "Sex Itself" is a careful, inclusive and maximally accessible guide to sex, sexuality and everything related to them.
