Whole Lesbian Sex Book: A Passionate Guide for All of Us

by Felice Newman

The Whole Lesbian Sex Book was the first-ever sex guide to offer information and encouragement for all women who desire women -- lesbian, bisexual, butch, femme, androgynous, and transgender. First published in 1999, it's been lauded for its thoroughness, enthusiastic tone, and creative, nonjudgmental approach to lesbian sex in all its rich variety. (Library Journal lamented, "Why can't more heterosexual sex manuals be this good?") Now, five...

The Title doesn't Lie!!!

As a fellow professional woman and a Lesbian for as long as I can remember. Felice has compilied the most up-to-date guide to lesbian sexuality and sensuality, that I have come across. All of the topics she explores are culturally relevent and more importantly includes information on possible health risks to us that are often ignored within the community. All aspects of lesbian expression are described in great detail, any lesbians that are not in larger cities with active, easily accessible communities, would benefit from the reading her book.

A Tome of VERY Useful Information!

This book is a tome of useful information. It contains not only the basics and standby's, but also a lot of creative ideas that will turn you from novice to sexpert with just a little practice.I recommend this book not only for lesbian and bi-women, but also for men who like women, because the best place to get sex advice is from the people who know the parts the best. (Likewise I tell all my straight girl friends that if they really want to find out how to make their men scream with delight - they should read "The Joy of Gay Sex".)Girls, if you are not that familiar with your parts or your partner's particularities, this book will open a lot of creative doors for you. Guys, if you are looking for tips on how to please those parts you normally only get to learn about *while* you are actually "borrowing" them, this is the book for you!

The Whole Lesbian Sex Book: A Passionate Guide for all of Us

Excellent lesbian sex book that jumps from the usual grade school lesbian sex 101 to this great book of post graduate studies in lesbian sex! Fabulous!Extremely informative! Detailed and explicit! Dealt with more intimate and specific issues, in depth information, using candid relaxed comments when discussing some traditionally taboo subjects. Using humour and a relaxed writing style to set the tone allowing the average reader time to appreciate how in depth this book had been researched,how extremely tastefully done and presented.The knowledge gleaned from these pages is invaluable for all lovers of women. It is so detailed and graphic, on so many subjects and therefore may be offensive to some. I was very impressed with the extensive research done,as well as the excellent resource section at the end of each chapter with an even more extensive resource section at the end of the book. Extensive resources for web sites, book stores, Bibliography, Index and so much more. This extensiveness of this resouce section will also serve those lesbian women who have no other access to lesbian books except through these resource and source section.Woman need this book, its information resources to gain extra knowledge for our own self knowledge yet we also benefit greatly with the delightful new knowledge of the joy in giving extra pleasure to women lovers. This book is even available in Canadian book stores! A bonus for this Canadian!A well researched and informative book! The author continues to seek readers feedback by continuing to include her questionaire in this issue. It was the response from over 300 international women who responded thus providing the needed information for this first book. The same questionaire is included here and the author wishes readers to continue to send in their responses. Let's hope for Book II as well as hope the author continues her research and her unrestrained writing so we continue to benefit, grow and enjoy. PS: Although written with lesbians in mind I'm sure men could also benefit by reading this book if they truly desire to please their woman

Complete, Informative and Open-minded Guide for All

This is a must have for any lesbian. I know a few guys who could benefit from it too. This book informs you, opens your mind to new ideas and places you might not have thought of before. I immediately wanted to grab my girlfriend and experiment. It's not just a few hundred pages of stuff you've already heard before... and it's not just a dictionary either. Newman discusses issues around different sexual experiences and play. She gives tips and wisdom from experience. She covers it all in a easy to read, informative, and very interesting way with an appeal to women who are just fantasizing about being with another woman, to those who have been with their partner for years. Great buy!

Finally! an up-to-date sex book for all lesbians

I'm so happy to have found a book that includes so many of us, not just the androgynous vanilla lesbians, (who have books already) but those of us who are butch/femme or into power-play, or curious and questioning about these things. Talk about straight-forward answers and real-life feedback from real women-this author has so much to offer, but she lets a lot of the info come from the women who responded to her survey. It gives me the sense that lesbians and bi women from all over are exploring and enjoying their sexuality more than ever. Very Inspiring.
