Editorial Reviews

Product Description
In Sex and Single Girls, women in their twenties and thirties-born with the sexual revolution and the feminist and civil rights movements of the '60s and '70s, and raised with the conservative backlash, the AIDS epidemic and the queer movement of the '80s and '90s-write about sex. In a bold and honest collection of personal essays, the authors lay bare pleasure, fear, desire, risk, survival, heartbreak, and intimacy: all that comes with exploring sexuality. Addressing a wide range of topics-from online sex to porn, bisexuality to marriage, S/M to STDs: from the tease to the one-night stand, dating to coming out, oral sex to orgasms: from a girl's first vibrator to dykes and their strap-ons and far beyond-the contributors write their own rules and tell their own stories with empowering and often humorous results. A potent, entertaining collection, Sex and Single Girls offers all the passion, hilarity, authenticity and character of women's sexual lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sex and Single Girls: Straight and Queer Women on Sexuality, December 11, 2000
By Seal Press (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
"Sex and Single Girls is fresh, bold, revolutionary, and entertaining. Lee Damsky has brought together a diverse group of voices that illustrate just how complex, exciting, and ever-changing women's sexuality can be. It both interrogates and celebrates sexual identity, sexual power, and sexual satisfaction. This book is a must-read for every woman, (and person) who cares about sex--it proves that we have indeed come a long way, baby." --Tristan Taormino, Editor, On Our Backs

5.0 out of 5 stars A great read!, April 30, 2003
By Leeann (Birmingham, MI, USA) - See all my reviews
_Sex and Single Girls_ is a must-read, as far as I'm concerned, especially if you're feeling like your sexual proclivities somehow alienate you from the rest of the world. This book ranges all over the sexual spectrum of smart, funny, sexy women. And, despite the title, not all of them are single, so don't let a serious commitment scare you away from giving this book a read! From the joys of being a tease to bondage to polyamory to porn...it's all discussed in here (along with much, much more)! The essays are often humorous, sometimes painfully sad, and, in almost every case, well-written and worth reading. Getting to know the contributors through their essays was one of my finest reading experiences in a long time, and I'd recommend it to anyone.
