A diary of my sexual awakening...at thirty-three?!!
Asuka is neither a woman nor a man—they're X-gender (a non-binary identity)—and they've realized they like women! Okay, now what? Adult films are fun to watch, but real sex is less appealing. Would having a penis make that better or worse? Periods already suck, and sex means more fluids from more people! This autobiographical manga follows Asuka's feelings about their body, their relationships, and the fun (and sometimes terrible) experience of having an awakening in their thirties.

Oct 20, 2022This is a really personal, heartfelt depiction of the author’s struggles and journey to find happiness. There are a lot of really informative pages with explanations of all kinds of different terms used in the LGBTQ+ community in Japan, many of which are also used in America. In analyzing their menstruation, Asuka provides some extremely accurate information on what is happening medically and emotionally. Many readers with female organs will mostly likely connect with this portion, and male readers will probably have some of their misconceptions cleared. However, part of Asuka's journey includes sexual tendencies and some pretty extensive discussion of pornography and sexual attraction. To omit these portions would be to omit a portion of the author's life and journey, so I don’t necessarily think they shouldn’t be there, but the inclusion of this information most likely elevates this to a book for adult libraries.
