This is a must have for any lesbian. I know a few guys who could benefit from it too.

This book informs you, opens your mind to new ideas and places you might not have thought of before. I immediately wanted to grab my girlfriend and experiment.

It's not just a few hundred pages of stuff you've already heard before... and it's not just a dictionary either. Newman discusses issues around different sexual experiences and play. She gives tips and wisdom from experience.

She covers it all in a easy to read, informative, and very interesting way with an appeal to women who are just fantasizing about being with another woman, to those who have been with their partner for years.

Great buy!

I'm so happy to have found a book that includes so many of us, not just the androgynous vanilla lesbians, (who have books already) but those of us who are butch/femme or into power-play, or curious and questioning about these things. Talk about straight-forward answers and real-life feedback from real women-this author has so much to offer, but she lets a lot of the info come from the women who responded to her survey. It gives me the sense that lesbians and bi women from all over are exploring and enjoying their sexuality more than ever. Very Inspiring.

This book is a tome of useful information. It contains not only the basics and standby's, but also a lot of creative ideas that will turn you from novice to sexpert with just a little practice.

I recommend this book not only for lesbian and bi-women, but also for men who like women, because the best place to get sex advice is from the people who know the parts the best. (Likewise I tell all my straight girl friends that if they really want to find out how to make their men scream with delight - they should read "The Joy of Gay Sex".)

Girls, if you are not that familiar with your parts or your partner's particularities, this book will open a lot of creative doors for you. Guys, if you are looking for tips on how to please those parts you normally only get to learn about *while* you are actually "borrowing" them, this is the book for you!

Excellent lesbian sex book that jumps from the usual grade school lesbian sex 101 to this great book of post graduate studies in lesbian sex! Fabulous!
Extremely informative! Detailed and explicit! Dealt with more intimate and specific issues, in depth information, using candid relaxed comments when discussing some traditionally taboo subjects.
Using humour and a relaxed writing style to set the tone allowing the average reader time to appreciate how in depth this book had been researched,how extremely tastefully done and presented.
The knowledge gleaned from these pages is invaluable for all lovers of women.
It is so detailed and graphic, on so many subjects and therefore may be offensive to some.
I was very impressed with the extensive research done,as well as the excellent resource section at the end of each chapter with an even more extensive resource section at the end of the book. Extensive resources for web sites, book stores, Bibliography, Index and so much more.
This extensiveness of this resouce section will also serve those lesbian women who have no other access to lesbian books except through these resource and source section.
Woman need this book, its information resources to gain extra knowledge for our own self knowledge yet we also benefit greatly with the delightful new knowledge of the joy in giving extra pleasure to women lovers.
This book is even available in Canadian book stores! A bonus for this Canadian!
A well researched and informative book! The author continues to seek readers feedback by continuing to include her questionaire in this issue.
It was the response from over 300 international women who responded thus providing the needed information for this first book. The same questionaire is included here and the author wishes readers to continue to send in their responses. Let's hope for Book II as well as hope the author continues her research and her unrestrained writing so we continue to benefit, grow and enjoy.
PS: Although written with lesbians in mind I'm sure men could also benefit by reading this book if they truly desire to please their woman

I am familiar with my anatomy and have a pretty good imagination; what I found useful in this book had little to do with technical sex. Newman provides some chapters early in the book with thought-provoking questions about relationships and flavors of sexuality. One chapter talks about sitting down and thinking beforehand about what you would like in a relationship other than really hot sex. You know, the things parents should be teaching their kids rather than just saying, "Oh, you'll know Mr./Mrs. Right when you meet him/her." One list contains a number of, shall we say, "non-vanilla" sexual activities and asks you to think about what you would and would not want to do at this point. That was a bit of an eye-opener, but was intriguing as well.

Coming out in my early 40's, I found these issues to be of paramount importance to me. Newman's book presents these issues clearly and asks questions that helped me get a better grip on my wants and needs.

This book is wonderful and informative. Especially if you haven't had much experience and are young. It answers questions that either women are too bashful to ask or have never thought about. Felice Newman breaks sex up into several catagories making you go absolutly wow and I hadn't thought of doing that before. She also answers a lot of questions that young lesbians need to know. Even if you are dating or even in a long term relationship you need to give this book a peek. It has some great insight.

The tone of this book is a assuring and friendly while also being authoritarian on matters of anatomy and sexuality. The illustrations are very poorly drawn and this is a great disappointment because many women (and men) do not have the education and experience the book is really assuming on several levels and clear, correct illustrations could be helpful for them. Also the book isn't really about lesbians, its a women and women's bodies. Regardless of your sexual orientation and your sex or gender, I think you can learn a lot from this book. Your experiences may not be the same and that is ok, keep remembering that as you read and you'll get a lot from it.

This book has seen it's share of hype lately so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon and read it. If you want a book loaded with lesbian safe sex then this is the one to get, however keep an open mind about this for everything the author states as facts is not necessarily true. Safe sex is important but a lot of the information about stds is unfounded and already obsolete. I was hoping to find more hot and dirty sex tips and such, this book was rather bland and offered up a selection of commonplace and intuitive practices. This is a good selection for the neophyte who is paranoid about lesbian safe sex but I would look elsewhere for some truly informative literature.

As a fellow professional woman and a Lesbian for as long as I can remember. Felice has compilied the most up-to-date guide to lesbian sexuality and sensuality, that I have come across. All of the topics she explores are culturally relevent and more importantly includes information on possible health risks to us that are often ignored within the community. All aspects of lesbian expression are described in great detail, any lesbians that are not in larger cities with active, easily accessible communities, would benefit from the reading her book.

I respect authors who write intelligently about lesbian issues. However, this book was not bought for this reason. If your looking for a book about female *health* issues then this book is for you. If you have absolutely no *common sense* about common & unususal female to female activities, then this book is for you. If you need drawings and diagrams about the female anatomy (that you already have)then this book could be for you. If you need a drawing that shows you what a strap on LOOKS like or how to put on a latex glove..then this book is for you. But for the rest of us who have *been there-done that* and would like to find a book on something new, exciting and passionate..STAY AWAY, this book is not worth it.
