Women of Desire: A Guide to Passionate Love and Sexual Compatibility
Sexually empowered women have long existed in Islam but their stories are often untold. Female sex experts and pleasure-positive women were often cited in erotic Arabic literature dating back to the ninth century. According to early African and Arab writers, feminine women have a greater capacity for desire and pleasure than men.
The medieval manuals emphasised the physical needs of women and the importance of emotional intimacy for a fulfilling marital relationship. Natural aphrodisiacs and sensual practices were recommended to improve connection and sexual satisfaction.
Drawing upon ancient erotica and contemporary research, this book provides a cross-cultural guide for God-conscious women to overcome desire problems and achieve sexual compatibility with a spouse.
The book presents short stories of 40 sexually empowered women in history including scholars, activists, anti-FGM campaigners, sex educators, and historical figures.
