Los placeres del autoerotismo

by Edward L. Rowan

It seems that masturbation is a universal activity, so why do so many people react to the subject with shame and embarrassment? This book takes a lighthearted, instructive look at the history that shaped our attitudes toward masturbation. Rowan assures us that masturbation is good sex, and there is no reason to feel guilty about feeling good. Este libro hace un repaso ameno y bien informado de la historia que ha moldeado nuestras actitudes hacia la masturbacion, y orienta a los lectores en la utilizacion de su propio cuerpo. El autor asegura que el autoerotismo no es negativo y que no hay razon alguna para sentirse culpable. Descubra que la exploración de su cuerpo puede ser un camino hacia otra forma de felicidad. Enterese de que la masturbación es mucho mas que solo una herramienta terapeutica para tratar disfunciones sexuales.

Excellent

Incredible book on a very important, and sensitive subject, I found myself relieved and well informed. The joys of self pleasuring

[John Wocken · Rating 5 out of 5]

An excellent book on giving many of us who grew up in homes where sex and masturbation were never discussed the permission to leave our guilt behind and enjoy the gift of self pleasure without reservation.

I came across this book over 20 years ago when my 3 sons were in their early teens and pre-teens. The boys mother and I were divorced, and she wanted no part of this normal human practice, so I sought out resources that would help support the talks I had with each of them.

The boys each had their own bedrooms at my house and I placed a copy of this book in my oldest son's room when he was about 15 (when I discovered the book) and then in my younger son's rooms when they were about 12-13 years old when they came to visit me in the summers for 8 weeks.

I didn't think much of it for years, but recently my oldest, who is now 37, and has a 12 year old of his own, asked me if I remembered this book. I was pleased to hear how much it meant to him as a teen and how he was trying to see if he could find it still.

While its long since out of print, I consider it still to be an excellent book for teens

Is it ethical to bust a nut?

Yes.

Very helpful and common sense approach to an issue that many of us struggled with for years. What a relief to be free of the guilt that I experienced for decades!
