Summary

From the author of Come as You Are and co-author of Burnout comes an illuminating exploration of how to maintain a happy sex life in a long-term relationship in her new book "Come Together." She advocates removing cultural stigmas around sexuality, openly communicating desires, prioritizing sex as a spiritual practice of connection, and exploring ethical non-monogamy if desired. Countering the notion that sex is a biological need, Nagoski frames it as a journey of vulnerability, presence and continually re-defining mutual pleasure with your partner.
