Note from the moderators of r/science: Please comment in a mature and thoughtful manner, we will not tolerate crude behavior. I will be back at 1pm EDT to answer questions! and my new book is called COME AS YOU ARE: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life. I'm also the author of three guides for, including the Guide to Female Orgasm, and I write the sex blog,, that other sex educators read and say, "Oh, I didn't know that was a thing!". Now I'm the Director of Wellness Education at Smith College, where I teach Women's Sexuality. While I was in grad school, worked as an educator and docent for the Kinsey Institute, and taught classes in Human Sexuality, Marriage and Family Interactions, and Sex Education. Were raising women to be sexually dysfunctional, with all the no messages were giving.

I have a PhD in Health Behavior with a doctoral concentration in human sexuality from Indiana University, and a MS in Counseling (also from IU), with a clinical internship at the Kinsey Institute Sexual Health Clinic. I'm Emily Nagoski I've been a sex educator/sex nerd for twenty years.
