Amazing Disgrace: A Book About "Shame"

Product Information

i enjoyed this more as a humorous book rather than a straight up memoir (because she is too young) or as a feminist book since it lacked depth on the topic of shame.

Grace breaks that barrier by speaking openly about her shame of her own body, how her sexual experiences helped shaped her as well as covering topics such as STD's, sex education, porn and consent. As you and I know all too well, we have been the guinea pigs of a broken generation when it comes to sex. It started as a 2 for me, was definitely 4 of 5 in parts, but averaged at 3 (which I consider good), all because in portions I found it slightly repetitive. What I admire the most about Grace Campbell is that there’s no hiding behind a performance for her readers: her life is her literal material and she delves into it with a bravery that has me shook.At only 27, Grace has got a lot to learn about being an adult, but she’s already got a lot to share about being a disgrace, and how she came to be utterly, disgustingly, disgracefully proud of it. Grace explores some excruciating topics through her own experiences, however there are stark contrasts to those I have read already.

She adds trigger warnings and acknowledges her imperfections, faults and where she is still learning. They’ll discuss having sex with awful people, wanking, mental health, coping strategies, regrets, revelations. It went over many things: sexual health/liberation, politics, body image, assault, mental health – the list goes on.

Depending on the highs and lows of your own early 20s, episodes of chasing blokes who really, really don’t want to shag you might resonate; as might getting kicked out of Rowan’s in Finsbury Park.
