Best quote from The Book of Sex: Exploring Human Sexuality and Relationships
We’ve turned sex into a detective story where we’re always trying to 'solve' ourselves, but the liberation we think we found was actually just us stepping into a more complex system of classification. Instead of asking 'What am I?', we should be asking 'How is this conceptualization helping me understand my own life?'
