By Charis Books and More/Charis Circle
Charis welcomes Dr. Candice Nicole Hargons in conversation with educator Ashley Cobb for a celebration of Good Sex: Stories, Science, and Strategies for Sexual Liberation.
About Good Sex:
We all deserve sex that's great for everyone involved. Let sexual liberation be your guide to a truly satisfying sex life. How we define good sex and the conditions that facilitate it will require a liberatory approach, because intersecting oppressions impose impossible sexual standards on most of us. Instead of intimate justice, we experience blocks to accessing the ingredients for erotic equity. Good Sex presents the ingredients to revolutionize your sexual menu in a way that works well for you, including intimacy, fun, pleasure, nastiness, and connection. Each chapter offers more than just theory and science. Good Sex outlines action steps to understand, define, and practice sexual liberation in your personalized way, replacing the unseasoned sexual menu most of us were socialized into.
