Intimacy. A Book About Good Sex

What affects sexuality? How can you accept your body and your partner’s body with all their features, including weight and age? What kinds of orgasms are there, how do you get them, and is it always necessary? How do you talk with your partner about what you like and what you don’t? How can you refuse sex if you don’t feel like it right now—and still keep the relationship? How do you maintain the freshness of sexuality in a long marriage, including after the arrival of children? How are sex, aggression, and pain connected? Is it normal to have sex with multiple partners, being polyamorous and non-monogamous? How do sex, gender, orientation, and sexuality relate to each other?

Sexologist Natalya Fomicheva writes about sex not as a purely physiological process, but as an important part of people’s lives, as a language of communication that brings pleasure and helps you understand each other better. This book is for the curious—for those who want to understand how to feel less ashamed, accept more, talk with a partner, and truly enjoy the sexual side of life. Real stories and clients’ questions give the narrative liveliness and sharpness.
