THE SHAMELESS ART OF LOVING AS YOU WISH - Unlocking Your Authentic Sexual Self

  • About the search for and discovery of a self-determined and fulfilling sexuality.
  • Relaxed and with humor: Gianna Bacio is one of Germany’s most popular sex educators.

This book is an invitation to readers to rediscover their sexuality. Not how it should be—but how it genuinely feels good for you.

The popular sex educator Gianna Bacio clears away performance pressure, myths, and the endless comparison to a supposed "normal." Instead, she encourages readers to take their own needs seriously and shows how we can develop more trust in our sexual experiences.

Gianna Bacio wants to inspire her readers toward an honest, self-determined sexuality with cheeky questions, exercises, and personal stories: “Everything you need is already inside you. You just need to start listening.”
