For Yourself - the Fulfillment of Female Sexuality

For Yourself - the Fulfillment of Female Sexuality

by Lonnie Barbach, Ph.D

This book begins with “So you've never had an orgasm, or you don't think you have. Or perhaps you only have had orgasms occasionally, or solely through self-stimulation and not with a partner. Or, maybe you just wish you knew more about female sexuality and orgasm.” The book leads women with information and exercises that help them discover the wisdom and pleasure of their bodies, clearing up the misinformation and confusion that can interfere with experiencing healthy pleasure.

Lonnie Barbach is a sex therapist who wrote this book based on group therapy she did with “pre-orgasmic women advocating that the best way for a woman to have more pleasurable sex with her partner is to discover how to create that pleasure for herself.

Chapters include: Sources of Sexual Confusion, The First Steps Toward Change, Psychological Aspects of Reaching Orgasm, Rethinking Sexual Goals, and Personal Liberation.

A Fairy Godmother note about For Yourself: This little book blends facts and information with stories of real women and their real questions and concerns (and no concern is too “simple” or “obvious”). Dr. Barbach recognizes that many women want to be better lovers for their husbands/partners and she frames much of the information and instruction honoring that - all the while reinforcing that learning how to achieve pleasure and orgasm by yourself is the first step in being a better lover.
