Excellent December 19, 2005
Format:Mass Market Paperback
It does not matter if this book is statistically flawed or not. The merit in this book is the candid and revealing responses men made regarding everything that they think and feel about sex, sexual acts, women, women's bodies, their own bodies, their sexuality, etc. Reading it at a young age made me a more understanding, communicative, patient and confident lover. As much as sexuality pervades our culture, there is not a lot of honesty around sex. This book is very honest. I cannot vouch for levels of statistical significance, but I can tell you this was a very important book in my understanding of the male and sexual universe, and statistics had nothing to do with that. Moms: buy it for your 16+ daughter.

Timeless data April 16, 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Whether the study was accurate enough or not, a lot of data in this book is still valuable. A great amount of men spoke out to a woman who knows how to interpret and how to write. Certainly during the time she wrote it, people were more loyal to any kind of study than nowadays, so you can't just say this book is only a nice thing to have on your shelves (referring to the review of the anonymous man from Argentina here below). It is not fair to state things are inaccurate and proven without mentioning the full (traceable) resources. In the book you can also see she has had many interviews with a lot of men. I still think Shere Hite has managed to collect valuable, timeless data.

Read "sex in America" instead February 12, 2004
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The data in this book is deeply flawed. Reading this book will give you an inaccurate picture of what american sexuality is like. The data is responses from a survey in Redbook Magazine. The data is not timeless, nor is it correct. For full details, read "Sex in America", a fully designed and cross checked survey - and look at the differences in the numbers. Make up your own mind.
