SUMMARY:Pussypedia: Zoe Mendelson and Maria Conejo with Carol Queen
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US ON MONDAY\, AUGUST 30 AT 6PM PT WHEN ZOE MENDELSON AND MARIA CONEJO JOIN US TO DISCUSS THEIR BOOK\, PUSSYPEDIA: A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE\, ON ZOOM! \nZoom Registration\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4hyhD6DYRHiEfUP_YY3ogw \nPraise for Pussypedia\n“Not since the 1973 publication of Our Bodies\, Ourselves has there been a book about our sexual selves that is so incisive\, so inclusive\, so frank—and so funny. Pussypedia is more than just a book about pussies\, it is a brilliant manifesto about living with one. Zoe Mendelson and Maria Conejo have created a multi-faceted masterpiece that should be read—and memorized—by every body.”—Debbie Millman\, author of Brand Thinking and Other Noble Pursuits \n“Pussypedia is a hilarious\, ridiculously informative and absolutely necessary atlas for people with pussies. From pussy anatomy to sex and masturbation and all things in between\, Mendelson takes an inclusive and intersectional approach to demystifying all things pussy. This book is a joyful\, frank\, and comprehensive corrective to the cultural ignorance surrounding people with pussies. If pussy is the promised land\,\nthis book is the compass that will guide you there.”—Roxane Gay\, bestselling author of Bad Feminist and Hunger \n“A thorough and empowering guide to women’s health…. [Mendelson] kicks body shame to the curb and\, in delightfully sassy prose\, keeps things realistic….Conejo’s bright illustrations\, peppered throughout\, add flair. [Those] looking to ditch the shame will find this smart\, inclusive\, and practical guide the perfect resource.”—Publishers Weekly (starred) \nAbout Pussypedia\nWritten by the creators of the popular website\, this rigorously fact-checked\, accessible\, and fully illustrated guide is essential for anyone with a pussy. \nIf the clitoris and penis are the same size on average\, why is the word “small” in the definition of clitoris but strangely missing from the definition of penis? Sex probably doesn’t cause yeast infections? But racism probably does cause BV? Why is masturbating so awesome? How hairy are butt cracks . . . generally? Why is labiaplasty on a global astronomical rise? Does egg freezing really work? Should I stick an egg-shaped rock up there or nah? \nThere is still a shocking lack of accurate\, accessible information about pussies and many esteemed medical sources seem to contradict each other. Pussypedia solves that with extensive reviews of peer-reviewed science that address old myths\, confusing inconsistencies\, and the influence of gender narratives on scientific research––always in simple\, joyful language. \nThrough over 30 chapters\, Pussypedia not only gives the reader information\, but teaches them how to read science\, how to consider information in its context\, and how to accept what we don’t know rather than search for conclusions. It also weaves in personal anecdotes from the authors and their friends––sometimes funny\, sometimes sad\, often cringe-worthy\, and always extremely personal––to do away with shame and encourage curiosity\, exploration\, and agency. \nA gift for your shy niece\, your angsty teenager\, your confused boyfriend\, or yourself. Our generation’s Our Bodies\, Ourselves\, with a healthy dose of fun. \nAbout the Authors\nZoe Mendelson: Journalist\, information designer\, content strategist. Her writing has appeared in Fast Company\, WIRED\, Hyperallergic\, Slate\, Next City\, the LA Times. Her projects have been covered by The New York Times en Espanol\, New York Magazine\, CityLab\, PBS\, Univision\, and Buzzfeed.
