Comments

Tracey Cox, a sex and relationship expert, said, "You can walk in to that place knowing nothing about relationships or sex and come out pretty much knowing everything there is to know, and able to go and have a very satisfying relationship."[4]

Sarah Brewer said: "The British have been very reserved about sex but are now more open than they have ever been."[2]

Sex therapist Anne Hooper said: "Amora draws you in and make you feel as though you’ve been able to learn something intimate and exciting about yourself. Human beings love finding out more about their nature."

Kevan Wylie, General Secretary of the European Federation of Sexology commented: "I am pleased to support the launch of Amora. Anything that helps people to have the confidence to share ideas, desires and wishes with their partners must be welcomed and encouraged.[5]
