My Secret Garden

Women's Sexual Fantasies
Book • 1973
Published in 1973, 'My Secret Garden' is a pioneering book that compiles frank admissions from women about their intimate sexual fantasies.

The book challenges traditional beliefs about women's sexuality and aims to reassure women that having sexual fantasies is normal and a healthy part of any sexual relationship.

It explores various themes in women's fantasies, including anonymity, exhibitionism, and scenarios that might be considered taboo or socially unacceptable.

The book was highly controversial upon its release but has since become a classic of feminist literature, helping many women feel less ashamed of their own sexual thoughts and fantasies.
