Sex from Scratch

Making Your Own Relationship Rules

De: Sarah Mirk

Narrado por: Mark Peckham, Jorjeana Marie, Caitlin Davies, Julia Whelan, various narrators

With nearly 50 percent of marriages ending in divorce, a growing percentage of women over age 40 choosing not to have children, and more than 3 percent of the population identifying as LGBT, modern life is clearly in need of some modern relationship advice. Sex from Scratch analyzes the facets of contemporary relationships through the struggles, opinions, and experiences of a diverse group of individuals living in nontraditional relationships. Rather than telling listeners how to snag partners and find true love, it gleans real-life knowledge from people of all sexualities and genders--from individuals trying to make open relationships work to those who have opted against having children--distilling their hard-earned wisdom.

Contributions from Andi Zeisler, Stu Rasmussen, Betty Dodson, and others make this love and dating guidebook an essential, fun, and insightful resource for anyone in any type of relationship.

Liberating

Very interesting read about freedom in sex, relationship and sexuality. A very liberating book to read.

Highly Recommend

I found this book to be incredibly normalizing of non-traditional relationships, gender identity, and sexual expression. If you’re questioning your identity I highly recommend this listen.

Ending?

the story cut off before the end, but overall I enjoyed the various perspectives.

Insightful

Eye opening, insightful and educational. Who knew there are so many ways to have and hold relationships.

Honest & helpful

Although not every chapter resonated with me, I felt like the topics were fairly well covered. The author prefaces with an explanation that these are anecdotal examples… I felt those stories helped personify situations. I often thought, “so, I’m not the only one who…” thinks/feels/does something. It was also easy to follow.

Informative and straight to the point

I really apps the concepts discussed, including a few ahha moments I didnt expect having read many books on relationship anarchy

A very interesting read

All that I can say is that it is a very interesting read, I don’t agree with everything in the book, but it is very interesting.

Absolutely great!

Absolutely loved it! and really recommend listening to whoever has any questions or doubts regarding relationships and Ppl in their lifes
