Revised and expanded tenth anniversary edition, featuring new essays and an introduction by Christa Couture.
This is a sex book. It’s a book about fucking yourself, fucking someone you love, fucking strangers. It’s about saying words like cunt and come, and all manner of perverse verbiage. Mostly, it’s about speaking honestly about our bodies and our vulnerability, recognizing we’re all imperfect, worthy, and desirable.
In this ten year anniversary edition of Hot, Wet & Shaking, Kaleigh Trace—disabled, queer, sex therapist—chronicles her journey from ignorance to bliss as she shamelessly discusses her sexual exploits and bodily negotiations. Trace’s memoirs and essays generously welcome the reader into her world, modelling a humour and radical self acceptance that can teach us all how to talk about sex, and then some.
Kaleigh Trace’s work has appeared in The Coast, The Huffington Post,CRIT, The Tide, and on her own blog: The Fucking Facts(thefuckingfacts.com). As a disabled, queer, feminist, sex educator she has spoken at conferences across Canada. From her home base in Halifax, Kaleigh writes about safe and shameless sex of all kinds, for all kinds.
