Hey there, I’m Cath Hak and welcome to Sex Ed Rescue! Today, I want to talk about a fantastic resource that can help parents have those sometimes awkward conversations with their kids about sex. It’s called the Guide to Getting It On by Paul Joannides.
Now, let me warn you, this book is a beast! It’s over 1200 pages long and this particular edition is from 2013, but there have been a few updates since then. You see, sex itself doesn’t change much, but the way we talk about it does evolve over time. That’s why this book is constantly being updated to keep up with the times.
Back in the day, accessing the internet used to cost a fortune, but now we have easy access to all sorts of information, including pornography. That’s why this book covers a wide range of topics, from the basics of the human body to oral, anal, and vaginal sex, as well as the use of vibrators and more.
It even delves into the world of pornography and how it relates to real-life sexual experiences. It covers everything from casual sex to dating in the digital age. And hey, it doesn’t shy away from discussing topics like virginity, different sexual preferences, and even threesomes.
But it’s not just about the fun stuff. The book also addresses important issues like sexual health, birth control, and even the history of sex. It touches on topics like sexual orientation, gender, and how disability or health issues can impact our sex lives.
Now, I know what you might be thinking. Can’t we just find all this information online? Well, sure, there are websites out there, but not all of them are accurate or reliable. That’s why having a trusted resource like this book can be a game-changer. It’s packed with helpful and reliable information that older teens can turn to when they have questions or need guidance.
Of course, there are some great websites too. If you’re in the United States, Scala Teen is a fantastic resource for older teens and young adults. And if you’re in the UK, check out BishUK.com, run by the amazing Justin Hancock. These websites are filled with accurate information and can be a great supplement to the book.
So, as a parent, it’s important to remember that not all websites are created equal. By providing your teens with a reliable resource like this book, you can ensure they have access to factual and accurate information without relying solely on the internet.
I hope this overview was helpful to you. Cheers!
