The Whole Lesbian Sex Book

Cure for cancer? End to world hunger? What's left to do after the publication of Felice Newman's definitive guide to lesbian sex? Drawing on a wide range of published sources as well as her own notoriously graphic questionnaire circulated by e-mail--stunning mild-mannered office workers as it reeled across their computer screens--Newman has compiled an exhaustively thorough how-to guide for practices as exotic as play piercings and as pedestrian as oral sex. Along the way, she offers a primer in sexual politics and lesbian manners at the turn of the century. The S/M hanky code is laid out once and for all. There is even a (brief, happily brief) section on celibacy.

Highlights include descriptions of sex writer Tristan Taormino's private consultation with Betty Dodson, the author of Sex for One described as "the mother of masturbation": "I was so excited about this adventure that I nearly peed in my pants", recalled Taormino, "I was going to touch myself for Dr Betty Dodson!" (In the end, Newman reports, "Tristan earned an A+ in pelvic thrusting, but got a big 'needs improvement' in the breathing department".) Although it sometimes skimps on the details, especially with regard to women's health, The Whole Lesbian Sex Book is so rich, inclusive, and authoritative that it invites challenge. Now inventive lovers can ask each other: "Is it in Whole Lesbian?" --Regina Marler

Okay so lesbians should practice safe sex... This book does offer a few pointers that is thoughtfull, but having read the book I would rather throw in the trash than actually use it in my sexlife. The whole glove thing (as a pendent to the condom) is a huge turnoff.
The fact is, there are better books out there, that gets more in touch with the heart of things.
Instead of guiding, this book is more a pornographic how to do book, that deals with a huge sex aspect and not making love.

great book - Rated
This was book first book I bought and read on lesbian sex and it will be my last because this book has taught me a lot over the years. I bought it six years ago and I still read it now again it`s great bedside book.

If only it were a little more graphic - Rated
I read this book on one of those long, lonely nights. I recently split up with my long-term girlfriend, and wanted a bit of company, or simply something to take my mind off missing my Butch so much.
It started off well, but really didn't go into enough detail, and had none of the graphic content I had been be led to believe. In the end I had to cut my losses and rent a Misty Mundae from Blockbuster.
If you aren't that into lesbianism, and like your entertainment light, then this may well be the book for you. But if you are a little more hardcore, I advise you to steer clear.

The only book you need - Rated
the best guide out there, if you don't know what you're doing when it comes to lesbian sex then this is the book for you. If you do know, then but it anyway, you can still learn more!
