Join therapist and sexologist Jack Morin, Ph.D., on this tour of the anus, complete with information and exercises to open the door to new sources of comfort and gratification. You'll unlearn habits that can cause everything from hemorrhoids to chronic pelvic pain—and, if you choose, learn new ways of achieving solo and partnered pleasures through this humblest of portals.

From the Publisher:

The first edition of Female Ejaculation and the G-Spot was meant to raise awareness about the phenomenon of female ejaculation, and to resurrect a now lost wonder and mystery surrounding this aspect of female sexuality. It empowered women who already ejaculated, taught women who wanted to ejaculate how to do so, and introduced this new possibility of sexual pleasure to women who did not know that they could ejaculate. The second edition of the book promises to do the same, and more. In the past ten years, attitudes regarding female ejaculation have changed. It is no longer a shocking phenomenon that few people have heard about, let alone experienced. Today, it is much more common for couples to know about female ejaculation, and to even integrate it into their sex lives. There has also been more research on female ejaculation and the G-Spot and advancements in the field of Sexological Bodywork. Many workshops now provide education and assistance to couples who want to improve and deepen their overall sexual experience.

Sundhal takes advantage of this developing climate of knowledge regarding female pleasure to expand her already comprehensive book. The second edition of Female Ejaculation and the G-Spot includes even more testimonials from workshop participants, an interview with a sexual healer, and an expanded list of outside references, resources, product makers and tantra teachers. She summarizes and explains new information that has come to light regarding the G-Spot, paying special attention to the renamed and researched PC muscles (now expanded to the Pelvic Floor muscles), and new Find, See and Feel techniques for ejaculating with a partner. She has also added new information to her section on men’s role in female ejaculation, updating findings on men’s sexual tastes, citing how many men now want more emotional expression and connection in relationships. 

With its new features meant to enhance Sundhal’s original empowering and healing message regarding female sexuality, the second edition of Female Ejaculation and the G-Spot promises to help readers, once again, appreciate the wonders and healing potential of female ejaculation.

This zine-style publication is an amazing resource for trans women and their sex partners, and anyone who wants to learn more about trans women's sexuality. Part practical sex guide, part advice manual, part personal narrative, this book is insightful and witty and has a visual style that recalls all your favorite black and white collaged zines from the 90's. Trans inclusive sex guides are hard to find, and trans focused guides even more so. Sometimes when there's a shortage of a particular type of resource, it's easy to settle for a mediocre choice. That's definitely not the case here. Bellwether has written a wonderfully detailed, intelligent sex guide that is strengthened by the presence of her own voice and experiences throughout.

The eagerly anticipated follow up to Lambda-nominated What Makes a Baby, from sex educator Cory Silverberg and artist Fiona Smyth, Sex Is a Funny Word reimagines "the sex talk" for the twenty-first century. 

A comic book for kids that includes children and families of all makeups, orientations, and gender identities, Sex Is a Funny Word is an essential resource about bodies, gender, and sexuality for children ages 8 to 10 as well as their parents and caregivers. Topics covered include:

• Assigned sex, gender identity, and gender roles
• Names and functions of body parts
• Talking about the word “sexy”

Sex Is a Funny Word is the first sex education book for this age group that is inclusive of lesbian, gay, and bisexual experience as well as gender creative and gender nonconforming children.
