I have been thinking a lot about sex. I concluded it's something like Disney meets BDSM meets education. Here I'm going to show you how sex in our culture is shaping who you are. I felt compelled to share this collection of my blog posts on Wattpad. Why? To raise awareness to what's going on. Keep reading. No matter if you're a boy or a girl, a child, teen or adult, there's something here for you: your sexuality is being impacted as we speak. Open your eyes and your heart. Take no bullshit. __________________________________ Note: Due to the nature of the subjects covered in this series, it contains graphic material.

There is a stage between childhood and adulthood that makes us all want to bang our heads into a concrete wall as if that will somehow make us forget the things we did in that cringe-worthy stage of adolescence. That golden era of bad haircuts, first and last dates, and that undeniable feeling of wanting to fit in. Teenagehood. Surviving it is a feat in itself, and the memories you make may haunt you forever. So this is my guide to the good, the bad, and the ugly of surviving teenagehood. Yes this will include anecdotes.
