LOS ANGELES—In his new book, “Better Than the Hand: How Masturbation is the Key to Better Sex and Healthier Living,” award-winning filmmaker, Magnus Sullivan, shows how masturbation is an effective way to improve your sex life, and he links sex and masturbation in a repressed culture to the way sexuality in straight males often manifests.

In this revealing book, Sullivan discusses how a better understanding of self-pleasure can also be a path to personal growth and empathy for others—traits that are increasingly latent in a growing population of straight men. He then contrasts societies widespread acceptance for female masturbation vs its equally wide shame of the same activity by men.
Best known for the 2015 acclaimed film Marriage 2.0, which earned numerous awards for blending mainstream cinema with explicit sex scenes, Sullivan is branching out with Better Than the Hand, to take male masturbation out of the shadows and shine a proverbial light on its health benefits and its positive impact not only on sex, but on the way we live our lives.
Better Than the Hand offers readers a candid look into the intricacies of straight male sexuality. With keen insight, Sullivan explains why straight men need to start talking about how narrow cultural definitions of ‘what it means to be a man’ are at the root of dysfunctional relationships with themselves, women and almost everyone else on almost every level. Along the way, he also explains in detail how creative masturbation can be the catalyst for the best sex and the best relationships of your life.
