- The revolutionary openness of Our Bodies, Ourselves for the sexually active iGeneration: Corinna has transformed the contents of her popular website into a frank and comprehensive reference covering the basics (puberty, orgasm, virginity) as thoroughly as the complex (pregnancy, birth control, gender, STIs, the emotional and physical risks and rewards of sexual behavior). - A detailed, down-to-earth exploration of every sex and sexuality topic a young adult could wonder about: In a time when the very topic of sex ed is awash in controversy, and abstinence-only models of education are increasing, Corinna offers an oasis of much-needed sound, straightforward information for teens. Including pertinent topics often overlooked in sex education today, the book addresses: alternative menstrual management; transgender and intergender; the legalities of sex; the "trend" of female bisexuality; "friends with benefits"; pornography; resources for teen pregnancy and parenting; and rape, sexual abuse, and domestic abuse within teen relationships. - Great web presence and print attention: Scarleteen.com has more than 25,000 unique visitors daily (more than 100,000 hits/day) and has generated acclaim from numerous publications, including Utne Reader, City Pages, Industry Standard, Chicago Tribune, Boston Phoenix, HipMama, the Oxygen Network, San Francisco Weekly, Yahoo!, Lavender Magazine, and Village Voice.Corinna, Heather is the author of 'S.E.X.
