Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Healthly Attitude Review: A very interesting author wrote this book. She significantly points out how we do limit our sexuality and how we can expand our thinking of our own sexual beings and this is perfectly OKAY! The author is very sensible and quite funny and this was really enjoyable reading. She explains it what we know in our hearts to be true about truth and sex and living and dealing with both. This book was very open, intelligent and honest and spoke of the sexual issues we should be discussing with our own partner and they should be the one listening

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Susie does it again Review: Bright is one of the few people I've read you have a knack for being incredibly honest about the messy complexities of erotic life, while still maintaining the ability to celebrate it unabashedly. Refusing to side with either the hearts-and-flowers pollyannas or the rabid sexophobes, she charts a far bolder and more challenging course. And she's a blast to read, too: funny, irreverent, and radically sensible.

As full of humor as it is wisdom, I highly recommend it to anyone in search of an intelligent sexual philosophy. It's definitely a thinking persons guide to smart sexuality.

Review: I found in Full Exposure a wonderful, sex-positive volume, melding philosophy, apologetics, and personal anecdotes. I enjoy Susie Bright's casting the burden of proof onto the naysayers, requiring that the repressed and the frightened justify their censorious dogma. And when they try, she shoots them down, like beer cans lined up on the back fence. She does, after all, write about (a fantasy of) making love to Dan Quayle ... reading that was the most I'd ever appreciated the man--and this leads to one of her _dogmas_: "Assume everybody is sexual." This is not a heavyweight philosophical deconstruction of the sexual attitudes of western society, but it is a nice guerilla attack on the sexual terrorism embedded in our culture. Susie encourages the readers to roll their own sexual manifestos, to question the manipulative & schizophrenic messages that we receive about sexuality, sensuality, and our bodies from the culture around us. A wonderful book to read if you're engaged in sexual liberation, whether from a sex-hating religion or from the commercial cooption of sexuality that constantly bombards us. A great starting point for your own sexual revolution! (If you'd like to discuss this review or book in more depth, please click on the "about me" link above & send me an email. Thanks!)

Bright has some supperb insight into sexual attitudes. This book might bore the already initiated but would make an excellent ground breaker for the the majority of people who give little serious thought to our antiquated sexual attitutes. Would make a good textbook for Sexual Attitude Re-assessment 101 classes.

She's cute, she's fun, she's fairly sharp, and her heart's in the right place. It's hard to recall that once upon a time Bright was a sexual radical: Look, she's the lesbian co-founder of the in-your-face, pro-pornography sex magazine, "On Our Backs"! No, wait, she's bisexual! Say, isn't that her editing annual collections of erotica? Omigod, she's relating a sex fantasy about Dan Quayle! Today, with a steady male partner (in an open relationship) and a daughter about to enter her teens, Bright comes across almost matronly. It takes an essay like the one in this book about a bomb threat called in before one of her lectures to remind her of what's at stake and inspire some thoughtful writing, and to remind us all that large portions of the country still find someone like Susie Bright a threat. Unfortunately, with most of this book she's largely treading water. As other reviewers have noted, she seems to have said most of what she has to say. And at 163 pages, this volume comes in a little slim at the price. Newcomers to her may enjoy _Full Exposure_, but for harder, faster Susie, I'd go for _Susie Sexpert's Lesbian Sex World_ or _The Sexual State of the Union_. And after that, head for the even spicier pastures of Pat Califia's _Public Sex_.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: A paradigm shift in contemporary sexuality Review: I read Full Exposure in one day. Perhaps it'd be better named Full Explosure: I could feel myself rapidly opening inside to a much greater understanding of My Sexy World. This book not only critically points out how we limit our sexuality but also very lovingly shows us how we can (and must!) expand our notions of what is sexy (most everything) and who are sexual beings (most everyone). I was particularly surprised how comfortably the author, a bisexual woman, spoke to me, a gay man. Susie really rocked my world. Now I gotta get my partner to read this!
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: Dull beyond words Review: I read this , but can barely remember what it said. Repetitive, stale, and not well-written. I bought it for her name because I like the 'Best American Erotica" books, but won't make that mistake again!
