A reproduction of the classic text, unavailable now for more than a decade, with a new introduction by the author. The Hite Report, first published in 1976, was a sexual revolution in six hundred pages. To answer sensitive questions dealing with the most intimate details of women's sexuality, Hite's innovation was simple: she asked women, a lot of them, everything--and published the results.
One hundred thousand women, ages fourteen to seventy-eight, were asked what they do and don't like about sex; how orgasm really feels, with and without intercourse; how it feels not to have an orgasm during sex; the importance of clitoral stimulation and masturbation; and to name the greatest pleasures and frustrations of their sexual lives, among many other questions.
The Hite Report declares that orgasm is easy and strong for women, given the right stimulation; that most women have orgasm most easily during masturbation or clitoral stimulation by hand; that sex as we define it is a cultural institution, not a biological one; and that attitudes must change to include the stimulation women desire.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A frankness and directness not usually seen in print... Many female readers can closely identify with these intimate revelations."

"The first major literary breakthrough in this field since the work of Masters and Johnson."

"Read The Hite Report if you want to know how sex really is right now."

The Hite Report, originally published in 1976, was a sexual revolution in six hundred pages. Three thousand women, ages fourteen to seventy-eight, were surveyed on their most intimate feelings about sex: what they do and don't like; how orgasm really feels, with and without intercourse; how it feels not to have an orgasm during sex; the importance of clitoral stimulation and masturbation; and, the greatest pleasures and frustrations of their sexual lives. The Hite Report declares that orgasm is easy and strong for women, given the right stimulation; that most women have orgasm most easily during masturbation or clitoral stimulation by hand; that sex as we define it is a cultural institution, not a biological one, and that attitudes must change to include the stimulation women desire. The Hite Report, which has been published in seventeen languages, was selected in 1998 as one of the one hundred key books of the twentieth century by the London Times and the World Expo.

I am, indeed, NOT alone! Many thanks, Ms Hite.....

January 4, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Ms Hite has been criticized for not following scientific methods. This book told me what I wanted to know without being too scientific, thank you. Before I married, this book was required reading for any boyfriends I had sex with...So, maybe not SCIENCE, but TRUTH, certainly. I sat around lots of tables talking with lots of women friends about these things, and it was very, very helpful to know what some other women go through and how they feel about a very personal and important part of life. This, being anonymous, gets even deeper, and I'll be forever grateful to Ms. Hite.

Not only mandatory for Females, but also for MALES

The Hite Report: A National Study of Female Sexuality

I first purchased "The Hite Report" in the early 80's.
I am a straight male and a product of the 60's
This is a Sexuality survey of FEMALES,for FEMALES, done BY A FEMALE.
I learned a lot about the opposite sex, and acquired a better understand of a Female's private sexuality.-

YES YES -I told my lady friends "The Hite Report" is Mandatory reading.
Regarding there own personal pleasures, desires, fantasies, wants, and feelings they have had to deal with, they will say "I'm OK" "I'm NOT ALONE"

Now 20+ years later it is still very informative. I purchased 2 additional copies for the Young-ins who tell me it's the "Bomb". Now they think this old geezer is alright.

It is life changing for the Females.
Males will have a better understanding of female's and relationships.

Looks like more copies for the young-ins this Xmas

Very interesting

March 9, 2012

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I thought this book was interesting but different than any other sexual study I have read so far. It was clearly presented in a way that deplict the reasoning behind the women answers, and some chapters, it gave the people report in their own words. Very interesting.

This was a staple of my reading as a teen. I read it every year as a reminder that a woman is a gift and it takes very little for a man to separate himself from others if he just pays attention.

Good book. Very informative and interesting. A bit repetitive but that's because it cites many different studies. If you want to learn, I recommend it.

Absolutely absorbing insight

This is the Rosetta Stone to any man's attempt at deciphering female sexuality. A true eye opener to the limits that males have confined themselves within. In terms not only of sexuality, but individuality, and empathy.

Normal being defined by the bell curve. Not necessaraly how normal is used with regards to healthy. I dont think what I read is unhealthy either. Its fasinating to read.
