He Comes Next by Ian Kerner serves as the essential male-focused counterpart to his popular She Comes First, offering women an insightful and practical guide to understanding and enhancing male sexual pleasure. Drawing from his extensive experience as a sex therapist, Kerner demystifies male desire, addresses common sexual ruts, and provides actionable techniques designed to deepen intimacy and satisfaction for both partners. The book emphasizes moving beyond superficial tips to foster a comprehensive understanding of male sexual identity, empowering women to explore and fulfill their partners' unspoken desires. It aims to transform sexual encounters into more profound and gratifying experiences by illuminating what truly makes men 'sexually tick.'
“While women everywhere benefited from Ian Kerner's sexual philosophy of female pleasure in She Comes First, now it's time to learn all about what turns men on and makes them stay on.”

It delves into both the physical aspects and the psychological drivers of male desire, including fantasies and unspoken needs, providing a comprehensive anatomical and emotional map.
- Sexual Communication and Intimacy
- The book heavily emphasizes the critical role of open, honest, and empathetic communication in achieving mutual sexual satisfaction. It addresses how to broach sensitive topics, share desires, and create a safe space for vulnerability, highlighting that true intimacy is built on spoken and unspoken understanding.
- Female Empowerment through Understanding Male Sexuality
- While focused on men, the book ultimately empowers women by giving them agency and confidence in their sexual relationships. Knowledge about male desire allows women to be more effective, responsive, and ultimately, more satisfied partners, transforming them into active participants rather than passive recipients.
