Love, Sex and No Regrets by Elizabeth Clark

Book Review

A short overview of this book

Love, Sex and No Regrets by Elizabeth Clark is a book for teens that talks about attraction, sexual feelings, setting limits, abusive situations, respecting yourself, and much more.

A book for those teens who are curious about sex, but sex that is deep and meaningful. The book encourages teens to see sex as something special and pleasurable. It also touches on consent, porn sex, and more. It is what I would call ‘a sex therapy approach to teen sexuality’.

Ideal Age

Ideal for children aged 10 to 18 years.

Hey there! I’m Cath Hak from Sex Ed Rescue, and I want to chat with you about this awesome book called Love, Sex And No Regrets for today’s teens by Elizabeth Clark. Now, this book was actually published a while back under a different name, but I can’t quite recall what it was called. It got re-published in September 2017, and let me tell you, it’s a gem!

First off, it’s a small book, which is great because it won’t take you ages to read. Personally, I love small books because they’re quick and easy to get through. So, let’s dive into what this book covers. Essentially, it’s a guide for teenagers that explores the different aspects of sex.

But here’s the cool part: it’s not about disconnected casual sex. Nope, it’s all about pleasurable, enjoyable, and special sex. Think of it as a sex therapy book for teens, but without all the explicit details. For example, there’s a chapter on how to masturbate, but it doesn’t go into explicit instructions. It’s more about exploring self-pleasure and getting to know your own body. It’s tucked away at the back, so keep an eye out for it.

Now, this book isn’t meant to be intimidating or uncomfortable. It simply emphasizes the idea that sex is about getting to know someone intimately. It’s about pleasure, but it’s also about taking your time and not rushing into things. It’s like having a sex therapy session in book form.

You might be wondering, why would you want to give a book like this to a teenager? Well, here’s the deal: a successful relationship is about more than just a good sex life. It’s about respect, love, and trust too. So, if you want your kids to grow up and have happy, fulfilled lives (and maybe even their own kids someday), it’s important to equip them with the tools to navigate relationships successfully.

Now, I’m not saying it’s your job as a parent to ensure your kid has a good sex life. They’ll figure that out on their own. But it’s about instilling positive beliefs, values, and an understanding of what sexuality is all about. And that’s exactly what this book does. It provides some really valuable information.

It even touches on topics like pornography. I’m guessing the earlier version didn’t cover things like sexting and pornography as much, since those have become more prevalent in recent years. But don’t worry, the book addresses the unrealistic expectations that teenagers face when it comes to sex influenced by porn. It’s all about setting realistic expectations.

Now, this book isn’t a step-by-step guide on sexual techniques. It’s more about understanding what makes for good sex, exploring your own sexuality, and experiencing arousal and orgasm. It’s a fantastic resource, even for adults. Trust me, you might learn a thing or two yourself!

I hope this gives you a good overview of the book. It’s definitely worth checking out, whether you’re a teenager or an adult. So go ahead and dive in. Happy reading!

Cheers!
