Description:
This book is most appropriate for boys aged 12 to 17. Visually, it's very fun and interesting, as it's written in the style of a car manual with 1950s pictures as illustrations. The Guy Book has great information about puberty (including information on girls' process through puberty), sexuality (including sections on reproduction, sexual orientation, contraception, and sexually transmitted infections [STIs] and their prevention), and self-care like shaving, bodily cleanliness, laundry, style, nutrition, general health and exercise, and mental health. This book is written with heterosexual boys in mind, although the issue of sexual orientation is explicitly discussed. It also covers social behaviors like dating, dancing, formal dining, meeting your date's family, and breaking up with lots of practical and detailed information. Issues of sexual harassment, sexual consent, sexual assault and abuse are treated especially well, with sensitivity and intelligence rarely found in books for teens. There's a great list of resources in the back, as well.
