Summary: Very interesting and intense
Review: i had originally purchased this book because it featured an interview with Annie Sprinkle the famed porn star. I wanted to read her views on sex and aating and see if it could be applied to my situation, it was. From there I found a whole new world of women's sexual desires which I never had quite understood before. To me, most of the negative reviews our here are by guys who want to read simplistic books on getting sex. This book is not about that. For me I walked away from reading this with an understanding of how to approach women about sex, discuss sexual topics, and a deeper understanding of myself in the process. Some sections read like Penthouse letters, others like a fun article in GQ or Maxim magazine. The interviews shed light on the different personalities of women and left me wondering how come it has taken me 25 years to finally have an inkling of insight into this matter. Buy this book if the sex lives of women baffle you, and if you feel that there is more to learn. Besides, it was a very fun read.

Summary: A great erotic charge!
Review: My only regret in reading Sexpectations is that I wasn't able to be with the author when he talked to this group of highly educated and articulate women. Reading this book not only opened my mind and fantasy world, but at times shocked me. I could not believe how easy going and comfortable these women were with their own sex lives. Some phone sex operators, others SM babes. All, however with lots to say on sexual topics. I learned more than expected and really enjoyed reading the book. It had me awake many nights a bit too long. Read it soon, it will open even the most narrow viewed individual's mind.

Summary: Kinky! heh
Review: Pitched in tone somewhere between a Cosmo Quiz and one of the raunchier Salon columns, this is a fun book and very difficult to put down once you pick it up. Always stimulating and often quite arousing, though rarely very specific or detailed, the book consist of a selection of short interviews with women who are not at all shy about talking about their (seemingly very active) sex lives. The author makes a point of asking each interviewee the fastest way to get her into bed. The most common response would seem to be, say hello, get me drunk, and make me laugh. Well, duh! Notwithstanding this advice, this is not a "how to get laid" manual. Unless I've led a much more sheltered life than I realized, these are women of somewhat - unusual - tastes and I would say the odds of running into anyone with these inclinations are pretty slim outside of a handful of specialist bars in one the larger metropolises. Assuming the author didn't just make up these characters, and the variations in tone would imply that this is not the case, I was left wondering exactly how he met these women. I would guess through ads in alternative news weeklies, swingers' magazines, etc. Can you say self selected sample? No big deal. There is no attempt at (social) scientific method or any other socially redeeming quality, this book just good, smutty fun, and a useful reminder of the almost infinite variety of human desire. And the cover photo is pretty cool.

Summary: A waste of time and money
Review: Ron Louis and David Copeland wrote one heck of a book--"How to Succeed With Women." After finishing I was inspired to read "Sexpectations" and came out completely disappointed. Sexpectations is crude, obnoxious, and offensive. Louis' study falls completely short of establishing a thorough and comprehensive study, and creates a one hundred-something page pornography. Moreover, Louis fails to interview thousands of women--a primary component of sociological and psychological studies--by gathering no more than a hundred women who explain their sexual fantasies. Louis then concludes that he has answered the question that Freud failed to achieve--what do women want? There is one underlining point that Louis does find that is legitimate--women seek men that have confidence. But who cares; Louis and Copeland have already pointed this out in "How to Succeed With Women." My advice is not to buy this book and do what I have done--go out into the world and find out what women want for yourself.

Review: This is a very interesting read but gives the impression that all women want to be tied up and spanked (and more extreme BDSM). This may or may not be true. Either my sample set or Louis' sample set is out of the ordinary. Either way, this book is entertaining and does provide some insight as to how the female mind works in relationships and proves that there are women out there just as perverted as men, or even more so.
