The Orange Book: A Teachers’ Workbook on Sexuality
The Orange Book
A Teachers’ Workbook on Sexuality

Workbook | 2010 | TARSHI

When it comes to sexuality education, teachers say, “These are such taboo topics, such sensitive issues – when we have hardly spoken about these issues ourselves, how can anyone expect us to talk about these with our students?” How can they become sexuality educators with little preparation or scope to explore their own doubts and feelings about these issues?

The Orange Book is a workbook for teachers with 28 exercises on imparting comprehensive sexuality education with confidence and ease. It is complemented by The Yellow Book: A Parents’ Guide to Sexuality Education that is filled with tips and tools, information and advice on talking with young people about sexuality.

Cost: Rs 100/- Contact us to purchase a copy of the book. Schools and teachers may request for multiple copies at discounted rates.

about sexuality and relationships

Audio Book (CD) | 2010 | TARSHI

A good conversation starter, TARSHI Talks is a ‘talking book’ with reliable and accurate information on sexuality and relationships presented in a matter-of-fact, friendly and non-judgmental way. As there is nothing to read and no pages to turn (only a CD to pop into the computer), people with visual and print disabilities can easily use it. Parents and teachers can use it to begin a discussion with young people, and young people themselves can listen to it either alone or in groups.

Mirchi Cares, the CSR wing of Radio Mirchi has recorded the content developed by TARSHI on a pro bono basis for this audio book.

Cost: Rs 100/- Contact us to order a copy of the audio book.

Good Times for Everyone
Sexuality Questions, Feminist Answers

Book | 2008 | Radhika Chandiramani | Women Unlimited

This anthology is an invaluable compilation of questions and answers on the most commonly experienced sexuality-related concerns. Based on the author’s popular column, ‘Midlife Crisis’ in The Asian Age, it covers all ages, situations and conditions, and believes firmly that everyone has a right to self-affirming and enjoyable sexuality. Tempered with compassion and humour, it is a resource for people who are looking for information, but don’t know where to start, for those who are confused about what they already know, those who are about to begin their sexual lives, those who might be bored with theirs, those wanting to know how to have safer sex, as well as those simply wanting to know more. 

Based on the most current and accurate information available to date, you can read it for fun or for knowledge, or give it as a gift to friends, lovers, family, colleagues or students.

Cost: Rs. 200/- Contact us to purchase a copy of the book.
