This review is from: The Ultimate Guide to Fellatio: How to Go Down on a Man and Give Him Mind-Blowing Pleasure (Ultimate Guides Series) (Paperback)

I really wasn't prepared to actually learn anything from this book. I truly thought this book would be a recap of what I already knew. I was wrong! Like a lot of women, I was guilty of over-simplifying the male sexual cycle. This book addressed many misconceptions women have about the male sexual cycle and male orgasm. It also touches on the unique individuality of every man; just like women no two men are exactly alike in need and preferences in touch.

This book delves into the act of going down along with the gender on the receiving end of this erotic practice but the book is also littered with other practices and erotic short stories by Alison Tyler. Of course the focus is in fellatio and the art of being able to give delightfully. My favorite chapter was on the technique of deep throating. Personally, I thought deep throating was a myth limited to exploitation on porn flicks but after reading the technique I'm sure to experiment with the technique. Every aspect of going down is covered between the pages of this book. If you ever had a question about going down this book answers it whether it concerns ejaculate, techniques, visual stimulation, toys, and even practicing.

The book is a little dry for my taste but packed full of information that is useful and thought provoking if you genuinely want to please and enjoy giving by practicing fellatio I highly recommend you read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars well written and indispensible, February 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Ultimate Guide to Fellatio: How to Go Down on a Man and Give Him Mind-Blowing Pleasure (Ultimate Guides Series) (Paperback)

This book is very thorough and beginners will find it especially helpful. There's some interesting thoughts on inhibitions, good information on male anatomy and male orgasmic response, and useful suggestions for solo practice, as well as a variety of techniques for male genital massage. The chapter on male anatomy and sexual response will be especially helpful to people with little sexual experience, however they'll need to read it more than once, and will probably find it a little overwhelming. It's very thorough and detailed. Additional information on anal play, fantasies and use of toys rounds out the book. Blue deals with uncomfortable issues in a straightforward way throughout the book, providing thoughts and anecdotes with a healthy attitude toward sex. But the techniques are the heart of the book. I find it indispensable.

You won't find another sex guidebook that is this smart, interesting and full of useful information. This book never insulted my intelligence; Violet Blue writes in a straightforward but fun tone (the section on male orgasm is fascinating) that gets right to the heart of going down on a guy. This book tells you exactly what to do with your mouth and hands, and how to make oral sex fun for both giver and receiver, plus how to do it anywhere, anytime. The entire chapter on deep throat was an eye opener, especially the anatomical illustration. She gives solid advice about every aspect, and I found her advice for the squeamish especially helpful. This really is the ultimate guide.
