This review is from: GIRL WITH A ONE TRACK MIND (Paperback)

This book was a wonderful and refreshing! Here I thought that I was the only woman in the world that felt like this! I of course suppress it more often then Ms. Abby does but, I have the thoughts and wettness all the same! She is great and NOT a freak. I think its awesome that a girl has finally had the "balls" to write about her true feelings!

Didn't know a book could be that hot of a read. This is one fantastically kinky book.

3.0 out of 5 stars She is not a typical woman!, May 3, 2009

This review is from: GIRL WITH A ONE TRACK MIND (Paperback)

Abby Lee is obviously a woman who is sex-obsessed, and sexually driven more like a typical man than woman. Most women will not relate to her stories because,... Surprise! Most of us women do not think about sex like a man, nor enjoy sex without an emotional connection.

Most women feel USED by casual sex. Very few women enjoy casual sex, except women with high testosterone (less than 20% of women).

Is this book "liberating" or "empowering"??... Most women, like me, will in some ways resent this book, because we don't like, and don't relate to the notion that women can enjoy sex without emotional connection. We set our bar much higher than a shag with some random at a bar and the idea of being a call girl (without the pay) does not excite us in the slightest.

In fact, Abby Lee's casual sex experiences sound like something I might have done when I was 18 or 19 (before I learned how to put myself first). I ended up feeling used and hurt by casual sex. But Abby Lee clearly wants MORE casual sex opportunities (which is why she feels frustrated by the prevailing view that women need an emotional connection to enjoy sex).

Abby Lee works tirelessly to "liberate" society by promoting casual sex. She harps on and on, "Say yes to safe sex". But there is no such thing as "safe sex", many infections are present in the skin not covered by a condom and condoms do not prevent the spread of many of the most common and dangerous STD's. If that is not bad enough, women should also know that it is women who are most at risk of contracting an STD -- women are four times more likely to get gonnorhea and HIV through unprotected heterosexual sex than men are.

It is interesting to hear such a candid recount of Abby's life, good on her for being so open and honest. But most women will find they are happier and healthier to live by a very different code of conduct than Abby Lee's i.e. waiting at least a month before having sex (otherwise you give away all your bargaining power too soon), and having healthy sexual boundaries will generally lead to happy and healthy lasting relationships.

Is Abby Lee's book "liberating" or "pro-women"? In the majority of cases, the answer is NO.
