About The Book

Enjoy responsibly.

Sex. Sometimes it feels like everybody's doing it. Maybe you are. Maybe you're thinking about it. Maybe it's years away. Whatever.

You need to be ready -- in your head, and down there. You have to know the right stuff in order to do it.

Got questions? Who doesn't. "The Sex Lady" will break it down for you.

• Does size matter?

• How do you prevent STDs?

• What birth control options are there?

• If someone says they're a virgin, what does that mean?

• Am I ready? Am I normal?

The more you know, the easier it is to make safe -- and smart -- decisions about sex.
