Sex and Marriage: A Practical Guide to Understanding Intimacy

Sex is one of the most talked-about and least understood parts of married life. This guide brings together two hundred and fifty questions that real couples ask, or wish they could ask, about sex within marriage — moving from the basics of desire and communication through conflict, body image, life changes, and the long arc of a marriage from the wedding day into old age. Each question is answered in plain, everyday language, with realistic examples drawn from situations ordinary couples actually face, giving couples the vocabulary and confidence to start talking about sex honestly, long before a small problem becomes a big one.
