An empowering, candid book that addresses what's really going on with teens and sex.
Providing matter-of-fact answers to real questions in a respectful and refreshingly down-to-earth tone that is sure to reach teens, 'Doing it Right' offers straightforward information without any dumbing down. This book tackles everything from basic questions about puberty to more difficult ones about first intercourse, sexual orientation, and rape. Without ignoring the most sobering consequences of sex, this book will dare to celebrate the pleasures of intimacy as well.
Each chapter begins with a general discussion of the topic, followed by a series of questions and answers that the author has collected from the teens she works with. Chapters are organised to address both boys and girls, and also, reach out to readers of all sexual identities. Topic discussed include abstinence, birth control, pregnancy options, STDs, gender, sexual orientation, and sexual coercion. There are charts and illustrations throughout.
