Reviews with content warning for Sexual harassment - Come As You Are: Revised and Updated: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life

THIS WAS ASTONISHING! I felt like I was learning so much throughout the book that left me astounded and with my mouth wide open 😳 The patriarchy really messed us up (as if we didn’t know that already). I especially enjoyed the part that states ‘all the same parts in different ways’.
I wish I’d gotten this in paper form so that I could use the workbook alongside it, but that might be a goal for another day. It’s one to definitely come back to, I don’t think I could tell you all that went down because there was so much information to digest 🥲 I appreciated the ‘tldr’ sections as well 🥰 Big, big fan of this! 👏🏼

This book comes highly recommended, and I can see why. It definitely helps upend a lot of the stories society has told us about women and their sexuality. Most of it wasn’t exactly brand new information to me, but the packaging or framing of these concepts was interesting. The part about “stress loops” and how we can close them was definitely fascinating, and I’m not surprised this author expounded on this matter in her next book. I am curious to read that one. I’m glad I read this one, even if I didn’t love the reading experience. Despite the author’s enthusiasm and positivity, the subject matter often felt heavy, and I had to take it in small bites.
