“A refreshing conversation that disarms limiting gender beliefs and debunks patriarchal myths, allowing those of us with vaginas to look directly at our bodies with curiosity and love.” —adrienne maree brown, author of the New York Times best seller Pleasure ActivismHalf of all people on earth have vaginas. But how much do we know about that part of our body? And why are we too shy to talk about it? Lili Sohn thought she knew all she needed to know about her own anatomy, but then she was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 29, and she didn’t recognize her own body. So, what is a woman anyway? What if I don’t have breasts or a uterus? You are what you feel, that’s what Sohn discovers in Vagina Love. Come along as she strays from the classical anatomical path created by a patriarchal society, and instead uses vibrant illustrations and disarming humor combined with concrete scientific facts to form an easily accessible and comprehensive guide to the reproductive anatomy of people with vaginas, from periods to menopause, from orgasms to contraceptives.
