* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. By reading this summary, you will learn how to take ownership of your sex life. You will also learn : to listen to your desires and those of your partners; to become sexually responsible; to approach sexuality in a relaxed and uncomplicated way; to take responsibility for your sexuality. For many, many years, sexuality has been ignored. Some agreed that making sexuality a taboo was not appropriate because it is a source of pleasure. Thus, a number of writings and drawings related to sex have circulated since then. Although there is no longer a law of silence around sexuality, it remains difficult to talk about it freely. The objective is therefore to free speech on this subject, by sending false beliefs, misinformation and any notion of guilt into the air. In any case, sexuality has not drastically evolved, but the sexual revolutions and their moral repercussions have made it possible to approach certain subjects more serenely, without fear of being judged. So, are you ready to understand what it means to have a fulfilling sex life? *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!

Emily Witt is single and in her thirties. She has slept with most of her male friends. Most of her male friends have slept with most of her female friends. Sexual promiscuity is the norm. But up until a few years ago, she still envisioned her sexual experience achieving a sense of finality, 'like a monorail gliding to a stop at Epcot Center'. Like many people, she imagined herself disembarking, finding herself face-to-face with another human being, 'and there we would remain in our permanent station in life: the future'.But, as we all know, things are more complicated than that. Love is rare and frequently unreciprocated. Sexual acquisitiveness is risky and can be hurtful. And generalizing about what women want or don't want or should want or should do seems to lead nowhere. Don't our temperaments, our hang-ups, and our histories define our lives as much as our gender?In Future Sex, Witt captures the experiences of going to bars alone, online dating, and hooking up with strangers. After moving to San Francisco, she decides to say yes to everything and to find her own path. From public health clinics to cafe conversations about 'coregasms', she observes the subcultures she encounters with awry sense of humour, capturing them in all their strangeness, ridiculousness, and beauty. The result is an open-minded, honest account of the contemporary pursuit of connection and pleasure, and an inspiring new model of female sexuality - open, forgiving, and unafraid.
