If you're female - or interesting in learning about females, buy this book! Beffy Dee This book is amazing! A very interesting read about women, bodies, evolution, sexuality and beyond - well-researched, educational and informative but retaining a warm sense of humour throughout (Sara Pascoe is a UK comedian). Should be on reading lists for all mid-late teenagers, imho.. alice_may_ said Love this book!. Hilarious and informative.
