By Cathy Winks & Anne Semans

First published in 1994, this completely revised third edition is a candid, upbeat, and friendly guide to all things sexual. It is filled with answers to the most common (and unusual) of questions, plus tips and tricks to enhance your lifestyle, and a comprehensive breakdown of the types of sex toys available, and how to use them.

The philosophy behind the book is that "there's more sexual pleasure available than most people experience" and "achieving this pleasure should not be difficult, dangerous, or expensive."

Beginning with the basics ('Sexual Anatomy 101', 'Communications', 'Masturbation'), the guide gently takes the reader into a world of giving and receiving pleasure. Other chapters include 'Lubrication', 'Creative Touching', 'Oral Sex', 'All about Vibrators' and 'Fantasies' to name a few. Beyond that you'll learn about toys, hygiene, safe sex techniques, S & M, and much more.

We found this to be a well-written, accessible guide that is just right for browsing or referencing. For the simply curious, or the sexually adventurous, this guide covers it all. The focus on real-life experiences, pleasures, and eroticism helps to make this one of the most relatable sex manuals available, regardless of sex, preference, or age.
