*Taking Sexy Back* empowers readers to reclaim their sexuality by dismantling societal standards and fostering relational self-awareness. The book offers practical strategies to embrace body positivity, set boundaries, and cultivate authentic erotic expression. Grounded in psychology, it blends personal stories, exercises, and clinical insights to help individuals reconnect with their sensuality.

Who should read *Taking Sexy Back* by Alexandra H. Solomon?

This book is ideal for vulva-bodied individuals or those socialized as feminine seeking to overcome shame, redefine sexuality, and prioritize pleasure. It resonates with young adults exploring their identity and older readers reclaiming their erotic selves. Therapists may also use it to guide clients in addressing body image or intimacy challenges.

Is *Taking Sexy Back* worth reading?

Yes—*Taking Sexy Back* is praised for its actionable framework to confront societal conditioning and build confidence. Readers gain tools like reflective exercises, boundary-setting techniques, and mindfulness practices. Its blend of academic rigor and accessible storytelling makes it valuable for personal growth or clinical use.

What is relational self-awareness in *Taking Sexy Back*?

Relational self-awareness (RSA) involves understanding how past experiences and societal norms shape one’s sexual identity. Dr. Solomon teaches readers to identify limiting beliefs, communicate needs, and foster intimacy through self-reflection. RSA serves as the foundation for healing and creating fulfilling relationships.

How does *Taking Sexy Back* address societal beauty standards?

The book critiques narrow definitions of attractiveness and encourages readers to define “sexy” on their own terms. It provides exercises to challenge internalized messages from media, culture, and family, replacing them with self-compassion and body-neutral practices.

What exercises are included in *Taking Sexy Back*?

Key practices include journaling prompts to unpack sexual narratives, mindfulness meditations to reconnect with the body, and communication scripts for boundary-setting. A notable exercise involves mapping one’s “erotic blueprint” to identify sources of pleasure and discomfort.

Can *Taking Sexy Back* improve body positivity?

Yes—Dr. Solomon guides readers to reframe self-critical thoughts and embrace their bodies as sites of agency rather than judgment. Techniques like sensory-focused grounding and affirmations help build acceptance, while case studies normalize diverse experiences.

What critiques exist about *Taking Sexy Back*?

Some note the book’s primary focus on cisgender women, which may limit relevance for nonbinary or male audiences. Others suggest deeper exploration of intersectional factors like race or disability could enhance its inclusivity.

When Your Sexuality Isn't Yours

00:00

Picture scrolling through social media, bombarded by images of what "sexy" should look like-airbrushed bodies, performative intimacy, contradictory messages about being desirable yet modest, available yet not too eager. Now ask yourself: when was the last time you felt truly connected to your own sexual pleasure, rather than worrying about how you appear to someone else? This disconnect isn't personal failure-it's the inevitable result of living in a culture that teaches women their sexuality exists for others' consumption rather than their own joy. There's a revolutionary difference between being sexualized and being sexual. When you're sexualized, your body becomes a performance evaluated by an invisible audience. You're simultaneously told to be alluring but not demanding, to please your partner while your own pleasure remains optional, even fake-able. This outside-in approach positions women as passive recipients rather than active participants in their own erotic lives. The antidote? Flipping the script entirely-from outside-in to inside-out sexuality, where your pleasure, curiosity, and authentic desire become the starting point rather than the afterthought.
