Come As You Are Book Review

July 19, 2018

What a brilliant book! This month in the Body Positive Book Club, we read Come As You Are, which is a really sex positive book!

This book meets at the intersection of sex positivity and body positivity and wow, I learnt so much! Like for example, that there is no such thing as a “sex drive”. That’s not how sexual arousal works! Also Emily discusses how women’s sexuality is always seen as “men’s sexuality lite”!
1) Just whacked up a video on my YouTube channel chatting about it if you want to watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzJ5s0l8nRo&t=11s
2) Come join the Body Positive Book Club on Facebook, it’s free and online so you can join from anywhere: www.facebook.com/groups/bodypositivebookclub
