Reading listOne of the most important things you can do to improve your outlook on your sexuality it to educate yourself about all things sexual.  This includes not only the technical, "how-to" information, but information about the spiritual and emotional aspects, and even the historical background of sex.  The more you understand sexuality, the better lover, the better person you will be. 

I have read all of the books in the list below, and can recommend each and every one of them as providing legitimate, honest and unbiased information about sexuality in the subject areas they are listed under.
