About Sexuality & Wellbeing
Sexual wellbeing does not depend on wanting a particular amount or kind of sexual activity. Attraction, desire, arousal and consent describe different aspects of experience. This collection helps adults untangle those distinctions, talk about differences in desire without pressure, and consider body image without making appearance a prerequisite for connection. Practical conversation examples are invitations to communicate, not instructions to become interested in sex. Each guide makes room for asexual people, people whose desire changes, and people who are still finding words that fit.
