Plain words for things we are often expected to know without ever being taught: our minds, our bodies, our boundaries, and the names of experiences that are too often hidden behind embarrassment or silence.
This section brings together informative, visual, daring, and factual guides. It says difficult things clearly, distinguishes evidence from opinion, and leaves room for the reader to make her own decisions.
Say it plainly, support it with evidence, get power by understanding.
