Failed by an American sex education system that stigmatized and condemned instead of being informative and supporting, Alex Liu grew up with fear and loathing instead of healthy curiosity. Now 36 years old and out of the closet, Alex seeks to right the wrongs of this misguided miseducation, uncovering the naked truth about sex through conversations with neuroscientists, psychologists, researchers, and even a Jesuit priest! A Sexplanation is a playful, heartfelt look at transforming the trauma of the past into a healthy, happy future.
