Vagina: A Re-education

Lynn Enright sets out to fill the gaps in an education most women never properly received, blending anatomy, health, history, and culture into a clear, frank account of the female body. She covers what the diagrams left out — pleasure, pain, periods, fertility, and the persistent myths in between — with the energy of someone correcting the record. It's informative without being dry, and quietly angry about how much women aren't told. Best for readers who want to genuinely understand their anatomy and the cultural baggage attached to it, and finally get the lesson school skipped.
