This is the book that started it all! Confronting one of our last and most deeply rooted taboos €” masturbation €” pro-sex feminist Betty Dodson, Ph.D. takes the shame out of self-love by creating a straightforward and appealing guidebook that reveals masturbation as a vital form of sexual expression for both men and women.

Dr. Dodson demonstrates how anyone can learn to make love alone without feelings of guilt or loneliness, and explains why masturbation is sexually and spiritually fulfilling for all genders. Sex for One reveals that masturbation is not just for times in between lovers, but is the ongoing love affair that each of us has with ourselves throughout childhood, adulthood, and old age.
