Awfully preachy (2010-05-18)

Frankly, I couldn't get through the book. As soon as the author started to preach about Christianity and God, and that you should only have sex during marriage, I lost it. He also claimed that divorce rates are higher for couples who cohabited before marriage. So he finds it better if strangers marry? Funny.
Anyway, if you're an agnostic or atheist, stay away from this book. It should be categorized in the Religious area of Amazon's non-fiction books.

Some good stuff.... but author has a limited point of view (2010-05-14)

We are reading this book as part of a newlywed small group with our church.

There is definitely some good stuff in this book, and overall I would say it's opened our minds to what marital sex should really be about (serving your spouse!). Our sex life has improved after reading this book - so for that I give it a good review.

However, a lot of the ideas this author proposes are downright silly, and way too many pages are devoted to them.

This author also seems to believe every man and woman fit into the stereotype of the man always wanting it, the woman always denying and being unadventurous. He acknowledges a couple of times that this is not always the case, yet he does not devote any time at all to couples whose sex life problems don't fit the stereotype.

With my pregnancy, my husband and I have had some issues of him being not as interested in the bedroom department. I was downright offended when the author stated that the solution for this problem was to drop your towel on the way to the bathroom to give him a little eye candy. Seriously? That's your ingenious solution??? I couldn't believe that was the only advice offered for this problem.

So not a great book - but enough good stuff that it should at least help most marriages. And if you're a wife who's always denying her husband, or if you're a frustrated husband with a frigid unadventurous wife - well then this book was definitely written for you.

With all the stuff out there, I can't believe people STILL need instructions on sex (2010-05-10)

If this book were written by a Hindu or a Muslim, all would find it totally abhorrent, but as the author focuses on the the "Christian" approach towards "marital sex", then of course it is not at all objectionalble. We live in the most sex-saturated society on earth, and with all the sex and related innuendo everywhere from advertising to movies to books to the astronomical numbers of teenage pregnancies in this country, I am astounded that there are people out there who nevertheless still require basic instruction on sex from a "how-to-do" book... Where do these people live? On a separate planet??

Sheet Music (2010-05-01)

Good book, especially for younger married couples but also for couples who have been married for a long time, will add spice to your life.

The sheet Music (2010-04-14)

Absolute must! Married couples if you want to make your relationship rock this is a good change! Very practical and honest look into sexual life of married people. You will discover how much your mind and attitudes effect your love life. Life transforming book.

From the television to the Internet, print media to videos, men are constantly faced with the assault of sensual images. It is impossible to avoid such temptations...but, thankfully, not impossible to rise above them.

Includes a special section for women, designed to help them understand and support the men they love.

A must read for all Men (2010-05-06)

This is a great book.
Every young man and Husband should read this book, it will be life changing.

Excellent! (2010-04-03)

I'm not much of a reader, but this book was one I NEEDED to read and enjoyed doing it at the same time. If you are struggling with this in your life don't hesitate. Although the book is directed towards married men. It also applies to single men like myself. I'm about to marry the most beautiful and loving woman and I don't need sexual sin in my life EVER! A real man would strive to be sexually pure for God, his wife or future wife, as well as himself. The author has helped me put up safeguards to protect myself from Satan's attacks. I highly recommend this book, so much so that I am also ordering ever book in the Every Man's series.

we're not all sex addicts (2010-03-27)

I'll start by saying this book isn't entirely bad. Just mostly. One reviewer said, correctly I think, that it's a good thing that this book brings the Church to more frank and honest discussion of sexuality. That is a very good thing. We're so polite that we forfeit our ministry to huge numbers because the things they struggle with are not considered appropriate conversation.

But not all men are sex addicts. This book advocates treating behaviors instead of the root problem.

Men can be free from this and any other sinful temptation when they forgive themselves as God forgives them, truly live in light of grace, and allow the Spirit's work to be done in their lives.

Stay away from this book.

Great (2010-02-06)

Definitely worth the read. If any man is suffering lust please ... i encourage them to read this. I would personally buy this book for someone who is suffering lustful thoughts and have hard time with porn and looking at women. I had this same problem. Im taking the test and doing it cold turkey. Think about God and pray under your breath if the temptation comes. Its saved my marriage, sex life and my future.

Neglects Root Issues and Problems (2009-12-11)

I read this a while back but I do know that I did like what it brought to the forefront of my heart. This reason why I marked this book so low is that it dwelt with how to avoid lust and keep from temptation but it didn't deal with how to handle that I desire to lust regardless of what I'm looking at our doing. Behavior modification is needed, but I need my desires changed which I don't feel this book really helped draw out in how that is done. The gospel and the power of Jesus Christ is the only thing that can affect my hearts desires. So I would recommend other books prior to reading this. Legalism is something that could stem from reading this book (wanting to set boundaries up, rules, etc. to keep from doing things). Rules and standards to live by are great, but they can not stop you from that sin. It will just make it harder for a sin to manifest itself.

This book deals with the fruit of being sinful and no the root of being sinful. Recommend "Not Even a Hint" - Joshua Harris

"You're the Man... Act Like One!" Look, I know you're not a mind reader, so I'm going to be blunt... The majority of women like to be fucked. And I mean really fucked. Yes, the media has lied to you. Sure, there are some women that want to lay on their backs, look into your eyes, and gently rock back and forth, but most of us want you to channel the power of the Sun through your penis and give us a good, solid pounding. Act like you want it, for God's sake! In this book, I'm going to lay out exactly what the majority of women want and show you exactly how to give it to them. I've got a section just for you and one for your female partner, so you can feel 100% comfortable letting loose on her vagina in the way she's secretly craving. Some of the topics we'll cover... The Alpha Male - It's more than just being an ex-fratboy douchebag, who still thinks he's on the high school football team. I'll clue you in. Dirty Talk - Trust me, she wants it. If she didn't, she'd fuck a mime. Speaking of, did you know Marcel Marceau was divorced three times? Enough said. Role Playing - How she really feels about pretending to be the babysitter, a whore, and a student looking for a little "extra credit." I'll take you through the top 11 Alpha Male fantasies...including one so controversial, I can't even mention it here. The Art of Being Assertive - Sack up and take control! What to do...and what not to do. Sexual Communication - Both you and your partner have needs and good communication, both verbal and non-verbal, is crucial when it comes to getting them on the table. I'll show you how to communicate "Alpha Male Style." You'll learn what to say...and how to say it. Now that I've got you all hyped up and extremely aware of the need to please your woman, let's go about succeeding at it. Let's get down to brass tacks. What are you waiting for? Buy the book already! Eve Kingsley is a feminist writer based in San Francisco. She teaches couples how to push the boundaries of a sexual relationship to create new levels of honesty, intimacy, and trust.

Better than most (2010-01-27)

I got this book and read it and was very happy with it. Most sex advice books suck, they only tell you stuff that anyone who is in a committed relationship with good communication would know, they are written for teens because they are the only ones who would not know that advice. This book on the other hand tells you about what girls want but don't know how to ask for, and tells you how to slowly introduce some new, fun sexual activities to your relationship. The only detraction I can say about this book is it is very simple, now that may sound like a good thing but I would have liked to explore some more of the psychological aspects of the sex described in the book and why we have lost this in our modern relationships because of the ways we are raised, but I like to explore things deeply. Over all though it was a good short read that actually did help my sex life a little. I would place this book right between "sex advice" and "kinky" and I would recommend this book to couples that are happy with their sex life but maybe feel like they are stuck in a rut and want a little more out of their bedroom activities.

Couples Guide To Satisfying A Woman's Desires for an Alpha Male Lover (2009-10-07)

Like me, you were probably just innocently walking along or surfing when this the title of this book reached out and grabbed your curiosity and wouldn't let go. Since the book's title has your undivided attention, just what is the book about? It's a self-help guide/instruction book/sex manual written by a woman, a feminist no less, who obviously knows what she is talking about. How can a San Francisco feminist write a book like this one? As she says, "This is not a relationship advice book. This is a guide to pleasing your woman in bed." It's her experience that one of the reasons "why women like men who are more assertive in the bedroom" is feminism. "How could something that inspires women to be strong and in control be the same reason why she wants her partner to be an alpha male in the bedroom?" These are the questions that the author answers in this fascinating 113-page book. It's impossible to answer most of the questions brought up in this tome in this short review, but the term "alpha male" does need to be defined. "Simply put, an alpha male is a man's man. Someone who exudes masculinity. Someone who looks like they'd be a challenger in a fight. A man who is all man, inside and out." This is the guy most women and feminists, according to the author, fantasize about being swept off their feet and ravished in the bedroom--but only the bedroom, not the rest of the relationship.
"Similarly, this advice is not for new couples or for causal sexual encounters. There needs to be a trusting bond" between the partners. This book "is NOT" about "BDSM techniques." The woman needs "to make sure your man understands perfectly that this is not a reflection of his masculinity...This is a sexual desire YOU have, that HE can fulfill for you."
Since American men are taught throughout life not to be "alpha males" the book is filled with techniques for the woman to teach, train her man to be a nice "alpha male." She successfully explains how to go about this seemingly paradoxical task and even if the various techniques and experiments fail, at least both partners are going to have a lot of fun failing. Following this advice is definitely going to perk up the couple's sex lives.
One word of caution for men reading and attempting to follow this guidebook, communication both verbal and otherwise before, during and after rough sex is extremely important. And while that advice sounds like one of the first commandments (along with consenting adults only) of BDSM practitioners, the author stresses that this book is not an introduction to BDSM even with the introduction of some fetish games, safe words and role-playing. She stresses that all these techniques are perfectly normal and mainstream. The feminist author's tone sounds very much like the attitude of a dominatrix, but she is probably just trying to keep her beta male in an alpha role only in the bedroom. But males need to be very, very careful with whom and how they play this alpha male role as defined by this feminist author.
If the rough sex and role-playing gets carried too far, the full weight of the sexual abuse laws can come crashing down on the man, and only the man. Becoming an alpha male in the bedroom can easily cause legal problems for the beta male trying to be the alpha male in bed to please his mate, but then having to return to the beta male in the rest of the relationship. An upset lover can easily go after her male fantasy provider legally. The man might be better off training in the real BDSM culture scene learning to be or act the role of an alpha male? In that scene written contracts are often used to avoid legal problems. It might be wise to have such a written agreement in this play between normal, so called mainstream straight lovers. That said this is definitely an eye-opening page-turner. The attention grabbing title is only there for the pure shock value for this rather straight bedroom guide for pleasing the female part of a heterosexual couple.

Not Helpful (2010-05-17)

This book is boring and is filled with inapplicable situations for us and just didn't have hardly anything we found to be helpful in preparing us for marriage. I hope that Christians start to really talk about sex honestly and openly to help each other, b/c there are a lot of couples struggling and hurting w/ nowhere to turn except books like this one that just aren't that practical or helpful. In that spirit, I am going to share our story and hopefully it might help someone else out there. My husband and I are Christians...unfortunately we had sex w/ each other in college before we got married, but we repented and stopped and so we were excited about our honeymoon night to say the least. We had this book with us but didn't think we'd need it since we already knew "it worked." Well, our wedding night was a disaster in the sex department. It didn't even work! We both panicked. The rest of the honeymoon wasn't great either and I was frantically reading this book for help and we didn't find much b/c sex hurt me very bad and we had no idea why. After months of worrying and our situation only getting worse, I went to a gyno to see if something was wrong. She said that birth control can cause "dryness," and sex just doesn't work if you have that problem and it can be so dry that any lubricant isn't going to help...and that was my situation. So I got off birth control, we were prego 2 months later and we started to have wonderful sex. So 6 years and four precious children later, here we are, I will never touch birth control hormones again b/c I believe they are unnatural and horrible for a woman's body and know many wives who feel the exact same way about it. I also know Christian people who have gotten divorces a year or less after getting married b/c sex on birth control simply didn't work, but kids weren't an option. We had no idea. So I don't know what book would have helped us back then, but now we are reading "When Two Become One" by McCluskey and LOVE it and are about to read "A Celebration of Sex" by Rosenau...we just need a refresher course and reminder on the purpose of God's creation of sex and some how-to helpfulness b/c we've never had a "regular" sex life with my being pregnant so much...and we've never had anyone to talk to about our "issues." I never would have dreamed that this would be the path our lives would take but I couldn't be more thankful as it's taken the focus off me...at first that was miserable, but now it is so much more rich and fulfilling a life as it's not all about me anymore...which may have been God's purpose all along ;)

Intended For Pleasure by Gaye Wheat (2010-02-22)

I actually bought this book as a bridal gift. It was highly recommended by Pastor Mark Jobe when I attended his conference he spoke on "Singleness". He cautioned it should only be read by someone ready to wed.

Perfect for Newlyweds (2010-02-19)

I'm about to get married in three weeks. When my friend who has been married just under 8 months suggested this book to me, I was skeptical. It didn't look appropriate for someone not yet married. I started reading it and after just a few moments I realized that this author had really hit the mark. I'll still be nervous on my wedding night, but I think I have a much clearer idea of what to expect. My fiance read it, too, and feels assured now that we'll be ok. This would make a great bridal shower gift for any couple, and is also great for couples who have been married for years (so I've been told).

Useless (2010-02-19)

This book was given to me after three years of happy, successful marriage. I suspect now that the motivation stemmed more from a lack of grandchildren than any concern over my sex life with my husband. I ended up tossing it in a box to moulder after the first couple of chapters, and it certainly hasn't hurt my marriage in the least to ignore the so-called advice in it.

I found the text to be utterly useless, and offensive to my intelligence and sense of worth as a woman. The biology section, though dry, was at least relatively factual. I frankly stopped reading when I discovered that the sexual technique section was horribly lacking in information and sadly out of date. There are less than half a dozen possible positions listed, and most of those are just slight variations on plain old Missionary. I don't recommend anyone limit themselves to the stiltedness in these pages. There are MUCH better guides out there.

Don't bother buying this one. It's a waste of money, not to mention time.

thorough, honest and Biblical (2010-02-07)

This book is standard for our pre-marital counseling ministry. It is thorough and Biblical. Sometimes, Christian material on this subject lacks honesty and transparency, but this book does not. It covers from first time sexual experience within marriage to later years in life. Excellent material.

A Celebration of Sex (2010-03-30)

My husband and I were recommended this book while attending a marriage seminar. We ordered it immediately upon returning home and had it before the end of the week. The book was just as advertised: almost new, good condition - arrived in a very timely manner.

A must read for all Christian couples (2009-09-26)

Wow! This book is outstanding. It provide readers with the best of secular knowledge, evaluated through the lens of Scripture. It dominates all of the other available Christian titles. Everyday topics such as concrete suggestions for improving communication are covered, as are more major concerns such as various sexual dysfunctions.

The book is notable in that it provides a seamless interweaving of Scripture and detailed practical application material. Only an author with a background like Dr. Rosenau's - graduate Bible training from a respected evangelical seminary, a Ph.D. in sex therapy from a secular university, and years of counseling experience - could have written this book. I can't imagine a couple who wouldn't benefit from reading it. The first chapter on God's perspective on sexuality, alone, is worth the price of the book.

a MUST-READ volume for Couples! (2009-08-10)

This book is COMPREHENSIVE! I think nearly any situation a couple is interested in is covered. Wish my wife and I would've been given this book when we were first married ...of course it wasn't written back then! But in marriage, THIS Topic is HUGE, AND therefore makes it a FANTASTIC Wedding/Anniversary Gift! But ANY marriage that has questions or issues about this "topic" would find it an easy read and comforting to strengthen and deepen their relationship. The volume is large, but does not have to be read front to back although I would recommend reading the intro and 1st chapter first to serve as a backdrop to other chapters. Enjoy (literally)!

Celebrating It For Sure! (2009-08-03)

This Product is great. It gives me the answers to the all the questions that i have been asking myself. It tought me to give my wife better messages and she definitley deserves those. You cam tell this book has words of wisdom from god himself. I would recomend this book.

Transforming and freeing! (2009-05-15)

Bar none, this is the best one out there for Christian couples, newly married or married for decades. Wonderful, practical and realistic advice and discussions to help husbands and wives enjoy God's gift of sexual joy in marriage. Based on biblical principals and the author's own decades of helping couple's seeking help.

Informative Book (2010-05-19)

I found this book to be very informative and enjoyable to read. I liked that the author drew from his personal experience in the medical field and shared real-life experiences with the readers. I also like that his statistics and various other statements had sources listed in the book in an organized fashion. Although I do not agree 100% with all of the author's conclusions, I enjoyed reading his viewpoints and agreed with most of what he had to say.

Soooo... (2010-05-14)

$14.30 Kindle price for a book that's not even 300 pages?? I don't think so. Maybe if the publishers weren't so greedy they'd sell a few more copies!

Heavy on theory and light on actionable items. Heavy on generalizations and lite on the diversity. (2010-05-10)

This is a more "what" the problem and pit falls that "some" girls face and not much on how to help girls navigate those issue. From Sax writing and theories he is very focused on troubles that some girls face and light in experience with girls who are successful navigating their way to adulthood and what helped them to do it. Some of the things he says in his books I've simply not seen. We don't have 10 year old girls wearing mini skirts and mid drift tops in schools or french maid costumes with fish net stockings. My guess is this must be allow in some area but I would hope it is not common as he would make you think.

I think there are better books for parents on how to set limits with all the electronic connections.

What he fails to point out that not only are girls facing new obstacles they also have many new opportunities that were not present for them in 1980s prior to title 9 and other movements that have allowed girls better access to higher levels of math and science and sports.

I think this book overall has a negative tone and not enough actionable items to help girls transition into adulthood successfully.

Not as helpful as I had hoped (2010-05-09)

I pre-ordered this book in anticipation of something helpful and relevant. As a professional counsellor and a parent of teen girls, I was expecting strategies to parent my teens from this book that are useful. This book provides some good points but overall was not what I had expected. Sax spends so much time on theory that he falls short in the strategy department. Some of the info would not be of great use to the average parent who wants some guidance. I was bored reading some sections, ie: early onset of puberty. The book seems to be written for those who live in cities and Sax lacks the insight into those that live in small communities without all those options of choosing schools that are for girls only. This is a book I might have borrowed from the library but would not have purchased. Not worth my money. I think just reading the article in Macleans Magazine this month would have sufficed.

a worthwhile read (2010-04-26)

I'm the mother of two girls (and one boy) and will be 30 next year. As a younger mother I found that a lot of what Sax wrote about in the book about girls "these day" were things I already knew, since I kind of grew up in this generation, or at least am not too far removed from it, as I have a younger sibling and cousins in this age group. Additionally, some of the topics he covered - the dangers of BPA, phthalates, television and texting, the importance of breastfeeding and authoritative parenting were all topics that I have read a lot on already. For me, the "new" information in the book included his conclusions on spirituality and it's effects on girls, as well as the benefits of all girls schools. We are already deeply spiritual people, but I was not aware of the research on spirituality preventing depression in women. I was also interested to read about the correlation between a girl not being raised by her biological father and early menses. One of my daughters is adopted and, although the book included information about step-fathers, I was curious to see how this would play out in regard to adopted children. Sax never addressed this.

If you are out of touch with what girls are doing these days, I would highly recommend this book. Knowledge is power and we have to know what's "out there" to really help our daughters. If you are unaware of the effects of environmental toxins on girls/women, I highly recommend this book. If you know this stuff already, the book is still a worthwhile read, but I might check it out from the library vs own it.

Fun and helpful (2010-03-20)

These cards are fun (cause sex always is, am I right?) and helpful. They describe the benefits of the different positions and it's good to know these things, especially for those who are new to having sex.

Add some spice and a some fun in your relationship (2009-12-20)

Great product to add some spice, try something new or just do something fun and different. Definitely worth the price.

The Sex Deck (2009-10-21)

Lots of fun cards to try, but some are almost exactly the same. Great for leaving a card lying around as a hint at plans for later. Great for first-timers.

Not bad, good to get some fun started (2009-09-13)

My wife and I have had great fun with these cards. And while no, there isn't anything really wild in here, to us that wasn't the source of our fun. We use the cards as "kindling" to get the fire started. A card slipped into her purse in the morning, or left hidden where she might find later does more to get things going then the actual content of the cards. Sometimes all it takes is a little nudge or suggestion to get our own creativity going.

Overall, I would rate them as fairly high quality with a fair number of positions. Some of the positions are exceptionally basic such as missionary, others are duplicates with a minor twist while others yet are a little more creative. If you're looking for extensive sexual instruction and advanced technique, these probably aren't for you. If you're looking for a little something to spark some creativity and get things going, they can be quite fun.

Turning Over a New Card is Fun (2009-09-12)

Has variety and good ideas for change. Use as a magic deck and shuffle and pick a card any card and enjoy.

The Wounded Heart (2010-03-07)

this book has a very religious base, as suggesting that abuse can be fixed by embracing prayer to God/Jesus. However the basis for the reaction people have to abuse and the actions of the abuser struck the chord of reality for me. It explains the reactions of the abused and helps to understand how the abused lives in society. Very eye opening explanation of the way an abused child lives their adult lives.

A MUST HAVE (2010-02-26)

I decided to get this book after I was given the Cry of the Soul also by Dr. Allender. I strongly recommend BOTH of these books if you are healing from sexual abuse, actually any type of book. Dr. Allender breaks down exactly what human being go through, the damages done to not only the body, but the mind. If you don't understand why you do the things you do, the way you act, read this book, read both books and I thing you will find a great source of comfort, peace and understanding. This will be a true gift to your soul. God bless you through your journey.

Buckle your seat belt (2010-01-02)

This book is excellent, but should not be read in isolation. If done in a group setting led by someone you trust, you will have companions to journey with as you face your past and the pain of abuse. I have seen change in my own life and in the lives of friends as we worked through the workbook together.

Beginning with identification of present day problems and symptoms related to abuse, it continues with your past history, walking you through your responses to victimization. Denial and memory issues are dealt with as well. It is the best tool I know of to help you connect the effects of past abuse with ongoing damage to relationships in the present. It helps you learn to navigate your internal emotional realm with greater clarity, asking you to walk down paths you have previously avoided because of denial, fear, and confusion.

This book stands out because it goes beyond victimization to helping you examine how your responses to abuse have carried over into adulthood, often in sinful ways. It is unflinchingly honest and the work is difficult. If you are not prepared to examine your heart, I suggest that you put this book aside for another day. It offers no quick fix band-aids, but addresses the need for a thorough cleansing of the wound, bringing your pain to the surface where it can be dealt with. It helps you learn to deal with the damage done to your mind, heart, and emotions, and acknowledges that the difficulty of the struggle is prolonged. It doesn't let you off the hook when it comes to examining your sin, but it is written with empathy and understanding, offering a biblical path to healing and restoration. If you choose to go through this book while entrusting your heart and healing to God, you will be richly rewarded as you begin to see change in yourself and in your relationship to God and others.

Awesome book! (2009-11-14)

This book is a must have for anyone who has been sexually abused. Even if it only happened one time. It is amazing how that effects every area of your relationships through out life until you get healing through God and counseling. You won't be sorry you purchased this book!

Read this book if you want hope for healing (2009-11-12)

Dan understands sexual abuse. Sitting in a room with him is a life changing experience. Anyone who knows him can tell you that God has gifted him in ways that no one else in the world is gifted. He is a man of integrity who is full of passion. He has an extreme and intense love for God that you don't see every day. Read this book and you will change.
