If you’ve read any of my books, you know there’s a lot that turns me on. But nothing turns me on more than wisdom and compassion. Jayson Diesel has written a book full of both, plus a lot of well-researched information on positive male sexuality. He’s done so in a way that is witty, engaging, and deeply personal, which all also happen to be turn-ons of mine.
By getting to know Jayson through his experiences and insights, you’ll get to know yourself better as well. Through Jayson’s honesty and vulnerability, you’ll discover that exploring and ultimately “owning” your own sexuality, in the myriad ways this book lays them out (and in the myriad ways you yourself are uniquely sexual), isn’t as difficult or as scary as our often-uptight society wants you to think it is.
As for myself, at sixty-one years old, I’m not as horny as I was in my teens and twenties—I’m more so! I’m also still on a very fulfilling, thrilling, and, yes, positive sexual journey, with myself and with my husband of thirty years. Oh, there have been mistakes and mishaps, changes and challenges, in my path toward loving myself, my body, and my turn-ons, but all that is also part of the fun! Jayson has written a fun, freaky, and fact-filled book that is sure to help your journey be more affirming and satisfying.
