"There’s a good chance you’ve had the “sex talk” with your parents. Or not. Or learned about human reproduction in health class. Or maybe you’ve heard a lot about dating, sex, and relationships from friends, movies, and surfing online. So you are all set, right? Maybe…. But everything you think you know and everything you really want to know is inside this book."

Written for teen boys, Dating and Sex provides them with the knowledge they need to understand dating, relationships, and sex. It goes beyond basic descriptions of biological processes with a progressive, practical approach that relies on secular ethics and emphasizes sexual health and personal responsibility.

The book addresses common questions like:
  • What’s a hook-up?
  • How do I know if someone likes me?
  • Can I masturbate too much?
  • How do I know if I am ready for sex?
  • How do I know what my sexual orientation is?
  • Why is it important to get and give consent?
  • How can I make a relationship last for more than a couple days?
The perfect book for helping teen boys understand both themselves and the complexity of the sexual world around them.
