Modern life calls for modern relationship advice.
Sex From Scratch
is a love and dating guidebook that gleans real-life knowledge from
smart people in a variety of nontraditional relationships. Instead of
telling people how to snag a man, seduce a woman, or find "true love,"
the book sums up what dozens of diverse folks have learned the hard way
over time.
Sarah Mirk offers tips and stories from the
steadfastly single to people making open relationships work, from people
who've decided they're never going to have kids to parents who are
consciously producing the next generation. No matter what type of
relationship you're in or what type you want, Mirk's reporterly wisdom
and sense of humor provides perspective, humor, and down to earth
guidance. This is an essential, fun, insightful resource whose time has
come.
In this updated-and-expanded second edition, Mirk tackles
new topics such as Tinder, ghosting, gender and sexual inclusivity, and
more.
