Beskrivelse
How to Love and Accept Yourself Just the Way You Are (in bed).
At almost forty, Jupiter left a fifteen-year marriage. Being single for a while sounded great . . . until she discovered that she was still emotionally shackled when it came to masturbation. To be a healthy single woman, she needed to unlock her sexual repression. With a camera, a keen wit and a reflective nature, Jupiter set out to conduct extraordinarily personal research by masturbating once a week—on film—for a year.
Masturbation Monday is a humorous and enthralling memoir—at once preposterous and profound, reverent and profane. Jupiter takes readers on a wild journey as she tests kinks, wrestles taboos and gets absurdly literal about self-love. She gives herself permission to play, to experiment and to fail, aiming to neither suppress nor glamorize her sexuality. She strives to create portrayals of sexual joy and female pleasure but isn’t always sure what will make her orgasm.
Unflinching, Jupiter faces her most embarrassing sexual fantasies, exploring herself from head to toe, without skipping her anus or her nose. She goes where few have gone before with condom-covered carrots, flower-petal insertions and teabagging herbal tea bags. She pays tribute to masturbation classics like airplane bathrooms, hotel rooms and washing machines. But her journey also brings surprises, like a budding appreciation for the strange beauty of her female anatomy, the radiance of her smile in the afterglow of orgasm and a rapidly growing fan base. Jupiter wrestles with being called a porn star. She encounters days where even the most explosive orgasms only sharpen the pain of loneliness, and other days when they erase it altogether.
Throughout the book, Jupiter immerses herself in a breathtakingly honest and raw portrayal of her physical desires, psychological conflicts and emotional truths as she forges a key to sexual joy and pleasure.
Jupiter’s extraordinary undertaking yields a book that will seduce readers and make them love their quirky bits. And hers.
