Women, too, but less.” However, the girl notes that women can have sex for pleasure — and then use contraception.

Anna describes and the first menstruation, which, she said, starts around 14 years.

She also writes that men can get sex for money.

Recall that Anne Frank started the diary on 12 June 1942, the day of his 13 years and led it for two years until her family was hiding in the back of the house on the waterfront of Amsterdam. 4 August 1944 the Frank family was arrested and sent to a concentration camp Westerbork and then to Auschwitz. In the autumn of the same year, Anna and her older sister Margot were transferred to the camp of Bergen-Belsen, where they died. The only cousin of Anne Frank, who survived, was her father; in 1947, he published the diary of his daughter. Subsequently the book was translated into more than 60 languages, it became a bestseller.
