Interesting info... but somewhat prejudiced

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2001

Verified Purchase

Dr. Reuben's book is an update of his classic bestseller, and the reviews mentioning the previous edition make me happy to have grown up in a later generation that speaks about sex more openly.
The author's views have progressed somewhat since the earlier edition, but if you would like an unbiased view of sexuality, this is not the book to buy. For one, there is an anti-gay tone to all of the information on gay sex and culture. I am a 30+ hetero woman and I cringed at some of what was written here. I don't think authors should cater to a politically correct audience, but I was surprised that this came from a medical doctor with a specialty in psychiatry! At another point in the book, he talks about the IUD method of birth control almost as if it is responsible for sexually transmitted diseases. As far as I know, many women successfully use this as their birth control method...seems strange?! All in all, a fun read if you are interested in popular culture. But --especially for young readers-- there are much better books on the subject.

had no trouble reading like a novel. very interesting and humurous at times even. may not be EVERYTHING you wanted to know about sex, but it sure comes close. may even give you a little more than you wanted to know. I definitely recommend reading this!

Great book, funny, entertaining and informative. You'll be saying things like "I didn't know you could do that!. Once you start reading, you won't want to put it down.

It’s generally a good eye opening book but...

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2023

I read this book as a teen, now 65. I got this book again way back in 2011 I think, with a different Amazon account and only now reviewing it. P. 124, Correction: Yes, women can enjoy sex without orgasm- just cuddling and for fun, They’re women! p. 125, Correction: vibrators don’t always work to achieve an orgasm and “pathways” aren’t created with it for all women, p. 154, mothers don’t accidentally teach their children to masturbate. If the child has no mom he’ll still get to it during puberty. Prohibition (and repulsions about sex) isn’t always by mother. It only seems that way because usually women are the ones raising their children and a lot of people are morbid/ignorant about sex in general but still seeking it out and are ignorant about it. Not just women, men too. Humanity is a sorry lot!

Appalling Bigotry

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 3, 2016

Verified Purchase

Horrifically out of date - readers should be aware that this book was written in the sixties. OK for research on out-of-date, archaic concepts and thoughts - read Chapter 8 on Male Homosexuality for some of the most appalling bigotry imaginable.
