The Basics

Drawn to Sex

Ken Gagne

I had never read the webcomic that inspired this graphic novel, but that didn't stop me from backing the Kickstarter to get my copy. I loved the humor, non-judgmental nature, and accessibility with which the authors covered these topics. And the diversity! Of genders, parts, colors, body shapes — even limb differences. I really appreciated all the thought they put into this.

My one disappointment is that their coverage of birth control did not include vasectomies. Our society puts more of the burden of birth control on women, and it would've been helpful to include more ways that men can share that responsibility — especially since men seem less prone to discuss their health, particularly sexual health, with one another.

The inside flap says this is the first of a series. I look forward to the follow-ups!
