The best sexual education book I have ever read!!
I actually picked up this book not because I was interested in what it had to say (I thought the book was going to be a joke), but because the title of the book made me laugh. I flipped through a few pages and decided that I definitely wanted to read some more into it.
I sat down in a chair with my girlfriend and without even realizing it, read all of the first chapter. I have to say, I learned more from the first chapter of your book than I have from all of the books and websites and references on sexuality that I have ever seen in my life. I told my girlfriend that I HAD to have the book, so she bought it for me. I read the entire book over the weekend. I made so many footnotes, bookmarks, and had so many highlighted passages that it looked like my college textbooks. I have since shared the books with my family, friends, and girlfriend, all of whom have loved it. Not only has it increased my sexual awareness by about a bazillion, it has also brought my sex life to a whole new level.
Great Book
This was a really wonderful book. Very insightful. Doesn't matter what sexual orgin you are, male or female. you should buy it. Everything from what to expect and how to get there. I didn't put it down until i was finished.
NOT just for college students
Apparently Solot and Miller are well-known for their tours on the college lecture circuit, but there's NO WAY this book is just for teens and young adults. In addition to their valuable, insightful and extensive review of sex studies and literature--which would be of interest to anyone who, um, has sex---the authors offer tons of fun sexual suggestions for anyone at any stage of experience.
And their suggestions work!!!
I completely loved this book...The fun, conversational tone, personal anecdotes from the authors (who are a real-life couple), inclusiveness to people of all tastes and persuasions, and, again, suggestions that truly work, make it a very valuable and entertaining read. It is also the exactly right size and length--not so comprehenive as to be awkward to hold or a chore to read, not so short that the fun ends too soon. I will definitely keep this book handy and refer to it again and again.
Long overdue!
An excellent resource for both men and women! Well-written and very readable, this book is a very modern and comprehensive reference on female sexuality. It is open and nonjudgmental while providing a plethora of solid information in a very conversational, non-threatening format that also manages to not be terribly overwhelming. I've recommended it to several of my patients who have all come back with nothing but lavish praise.
I particularly recommend this book in conjunction with The Survivor's Guide to Sex: How to Have an Empowered Sex Life After Child Sexual Abuse for women who are healing from childhood sexual abuse or assault.
Informative book
All men and women should take a look at this book, but make sure you have lots of time to spend on it because once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down!
Sex Ed as It Should Be
This is one well-researched book: Dorian and Marshall waded through tons of research, collected surveys from thousands of people, watched famous female orgasm scenes in movies, and yes, even tried out positions and techniques. (Though it's pretty peripheral to female orgasm, they even answer the question, "Does size matter?" That's dedication.)
Their tone is wonderfully sex-positive without ever downplaying challenges, and they manage to be both philosophical and splendidly specific in one quick read. Quite a feat.
I Love Female Orgasm is a must-have for college students, but there is material of value (and amusement) for the most orgasm-savvy of us in here. I wish I'd had it 15 years ago.
One cute package
"I Love Female Orgasm" is a handy dandy compilation of all those things you kinda knew, heard about, read about, weren't sure about, or had forgotten about, plus a bunch of great REAL tidbits from real people -- along with a bunch of big O trivia -- all wrapped up into one cute package!
If you like vaginas...
... you'll LOVE this book! It's an honest, informative, and often funny guide to the female orgasm, and sexuality in general. Dorian Solot, Marshal Miller, and the thousands of women and men they have surveyed and worked with, provide personal anecdotes throughout the book, which serve as comfortingly real answers to the 'questions you always wanted to ask' as well as the ones you didn't even realize you had! The book is very inclusive of all genders, body types and sexual orientations.
Highly Recommended
After seeing Dorian and Marshall's presentation at my university, I couldn't wait to buy their book. This book is a GREAT source of information for any woman interested in becoming more comfortable with her sexuality and any man interested in helping his girlfriend/wife do the same. Loaded with information on (of course) female orgasms, but also contains great information on sex toys, preventing STIs, and a variety of other topics. I highly recommend this book.
