Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good
Review: A lot of the things were common sense, but there were some interesting ideas in the book. Not bad if you're looking for new ideas to spice up your sex life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book saved my marriage.
Review: Amy and I have been married for 37 years now and our love life was really starting to fade until she bought this book. While some of the techniques at first seemed strange to me, Amy and I tried them out and I must say, I'm hooked! (You've got to try the 'Rim Job'!) We used to barely speak to each other at night, but now, after I come home from a long day of tax accountantcy, we put on a little Kenny G, pour a couple glasses of white zinfandel, and spend a couple hours on page 87 ('Fisting'). Thank you, Dan and Maggie, for putting the spice back in our love life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Only "How-to" Book You'll Ever Need!
Review: Brilliant. The authors know their business like no one else. These tips and techniques WORK. If you want to keep a man AND keep him coming back, read this, memorize it and use it. This book changed my life.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This one always makes people smile.
Review: Don't expect this book to teach you anything you don't know. The techniques are all pretty basic, albeit some with a little "twist." However, it's entertainingly written and the title alone may be reason enough to own it. I've given it as a gift at a couple bridal showers, and it is always a big hit.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It was just alright.....
Review: Frankly, I was disappointed by this book. Although it had one or two good tips, it certainly was not the arsenal of cool sex tips that it's made out to be. I've gotten more information from some other books I've read (The Ultimate Guide to Performing Fellatio). Decent for a beach read, but don't expect rockets.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Buy this book to enable Histrionic Personality Disorder
Review: Having read this book I can only conclude that the female author and possibly her male co-author might suffer from histrionic Personality Disorder which is often diagnosed in people who are invariably uncomfortable when not the center of attention. There is a style of speech that is excessively impressionistic if not downright theatrical and may manifest in words enlisted more for their emotional colouring than for their factual content. For these people the truth of any situation is less with the facts than with their hunches and gut feelings, as it were. This person may also behave in a manner which may be sexually provocative, but there would invariably be more style than content to this behaviour.

While this book appears to be a self-help parody it is in actuality a very harmful series of degrading situations of straight woman and very sad gay men and will no doubt foster these histrionic characteristics including excessive, almost theatrical, emotional responsiveness while at the same time display a discernable shallowness to these emotions. Therefore, it is my opinion that one will find neither humor nor "help" from the contents of this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Fruitless Endeavor
Review: Having worked in the publishing world for several years, I have come across my share of books that poke fun at the nature of human sexuality while trying to impart the authors own "pearls of wisdom" since they have some sort of hidden desire to be the star of their own orgiastic fantasies. This is such a book.

Upon receiving this book I thought it might be a new publication since it remains in hardcover but discovered, unsurprisingly, that it's been out for quite some time and still has yet to make paperback. This should have given me a clue about its hackneyed, heavy-handed contents. The author(s) try way too hard to the point where one is almost taken ill with the inane details of individual encounters and incredibly detrimental advice regarding physical intimacy. I can understand that the publishers try to play up the humorous aspect of such a book by providing outdated "campy" packaging but the voice of the author(s), particularly Ms. Berman is so authoritative that it truly conveys the sadness of an existence based on sexual prowess and the manipulation of, and by, men to ease one's poor (or highly unrealistic) self-image.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great !!!!
Review: I bought this book 3 years ago and it is very helpful. Especially the part of going down on a man. I received a diamond ring about a month after using the suggestions in this book.Now I keep it in the nightstand as a refresher. It has very good suggestions in it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book was plenty instructional and very fun
Review: I bought this for my wife of 20 years. Although our sex life is great, it's always fun to read books together. The techniques given were invaluable and the writing hilarious. Highly recommended.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I was disappointed
Review: I expected something really funny, refreshing, and informative, but there was only one thing in the book that I found new, and the rest were things that most people know already, and it just wasn't very funny. If you're curious, get it from the library, unless you're too embarrassed...in that case, go to one of your gay friends directly.
