Life's Too Short for Tantric Sex: 50 Shortcuts to Sexual Ecstasy (Paperback)

~ Kate Tayor (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

If the title seems glib, the contents are decidedly not. Taylor, another veteran of Sex Tips for Girls (she was the host), takes sex short takes seriously (or mostly seriously) enough to do an excellent job of explaining how to pull them off. Most aren't difficult and are illustrated by flowing, chic woodcuts by artist Sarah Young. Some acts are solo, others are rather involved, while still others involve implements that should be familiar to most readers. In some cases, slowing down allows for speeding things up, and manual dexterity may count for more than staying power. From the KIVIN method to C.A.T. (Coital Alignment Technique), there should be something here to suit every taste and situation.

Product Description

Everyone's heard tales of sexual performers who can enjoy marathons of six or more hours without fading, yawning, or getting a cramp. But unless you're a Hollywood star, who has the time? In Life's Too Short for Tantric Sex, author Kate Taylor offers couples a range of techniques to help them have fun and fulfilling sex that doesn't take all day (or all night). Divided into nine thematic sections, Life's Too Short for Tantric Sex takes readers from foreplay using handcraft and mouthwork to the main event, and even includes a section on activities readers may not have thought of—or heard of—before. Short, lighthearted, and to-the-point, Life's Too Short for Tantric Sex is perfect for couples longing to discover the pleasures of tantric sex without spending hours on meditation, candle staring, and slow massage. Over 120 artful, instructive drawings and vividly descriptive text tells readers exactly what to do and how to do it, and themed chapters provide quick direction to an appropriate activity for any romantic occasion.
