About this listen
For millennia, scientists thought women were inside-out versions of men, and male anxiety about female sexuality generated ludicrous ideas and perpetuated inaccurate information. The Sweetness of Venus is a provocative, straight-talking history that exposes the denial, misunderstanding, brutality, and lies endured by this taboo part of human anatomy.
Much of the story of the clitoris has been defined by those who discovered and mapped her. However, even after the true anatomy of the clitoris was finally fully mapped with 3D imaging in 2005, it still hardly gets a mention in America's best-selling teen sex-education book for girls, and no mention at all in the parallel book for boys. Equality when it comes to sex has not been achieved.
This book challenges Western culture's definition of female sexuality and will have you laughing out loud, shouting "clitoris!" with abandon, and championing sex equality and pleasure for all.

Simply superb!
Clarity on a topic school never covered and girls were usually too shy to discuss with me. One of the biggest points was understanding the statistics of P&V-only orgasms for women and how as a hetero male it would be the rule not the exception that the female would never orgasm from it alone. Sarah clearly expounds the history of how the C has been ignored or subdued in the literature of past centuries. V interesting and thought provoking! (White hetero cis male listener)

A young man's perspective (age 20-25)
I would thoroughly recommend listening to the Sweetness of Venus. I found the book challenged my own perspective, and was surprised at how ingrained certain background beliefs have come to be in our society. I will definitely be sharing this audio book with any future daughters, girlfriends or female friends.
Some important takeaways I learnt:
- Women is not a version of man.
- The vagina should NOT be simplified to an inside out penis!
- Why is the clit missing from your diagram?
