This book doesn't assume that a young girl is careening down the path to sex. In fact the book is chock full of tales of teens who did have sex for the wrong reasons and lived to regret it. It's a wonderful book written by a person who doesn't shake her fingers and say Just Say No, but instead provides young women with a thoughtful and thorough book about sex. You wanna hide your head in the sand and assume your daughter isn't going to succumb to the incredible pressure placed on teens these days to have sex with each other, then don't buy the book. On the other hand, if you want a book that treats your daughter as a person who is thinking about sex (and believe me every young women is) and gives her a road map to 1. Think very seriously about it before choosing to "do it" and 2. educates her thoroughly about the many hazards including emotional damange, pregnancy and STDs, then this is the best book I've ever seen.

Written by certified sex therapist Darcy Luadzers, Virgin Sex is an informed and informative guide written especially for women and which deals honestly and intelligently with the hard questions of sex. Virgin Sex directly addresses issues that particularly concern young virgins, such as "how will I know when I am ready/not ready?", as well as how to make one's first experience a memory to cherish. Virgin Sex is also filled from cover to cover with solid advice appropriate for women of all ages including how to recognize men who are only interested in sex -- not a relationship; how to prevent and avoid rape; how to make sex pleasurable, not painful; and more. Very highly recommended for Human Sexuality reading lists and library collections.
In love with Mr. Wonderful?
