Beyond
Orgasm: Respected sex educator
and therapist Dr. Marty Klein outlines how our
fear of sexuality, our obsession about orgasm,
and our inability to be honest about what we
really want from our sexual encounters has poisoned
our ability to truly experience all that a sexual
relationship has to offer.

The
Ethical Slut: Those interested
in exploring non-monogamy would be hard pressed
to find more charming or knowledgeable guides
than Easton and Liszt. They examine the intricacies
of managing multiple relationships, including
finding partners, scheduling dates, dealing
with partner jealousy, managing conflict, and
raising children. They manage to cover complicated
and controversial ground with humor, integrity,
and lots of personal revelations.

 Five
Minute Erotica: More
a fan of erotic poetry than prose, it was with
some scepticism that I opened my volume of Five
Minute Erotica, edited by Carol Queen. Yet one
story, ‘Dear Marla’, still causes me
to draw in my breath whenever I think of it. The
book is sprinkled throughout with such gems. As
with any collection of works by various authors,
the writing is uneven, but there are far more hits
than misses. One bonus is that each offering is
short enough to read to your lover as a teaser—in
fact most will fit within the time constraints
of a voice mail message (very hot!). Another plus
is that different authors bring fresh perspective
and variety. Use this slim book to fuel your masturbation
fantasies, fire up your lover, or simply to appreciate
some fine erotic prose. It’s a winner. |

How
To Be A Babe: It was with great
excitement that I first opened my copy of How
to Be a Babe. I had read other works by Dr.
Davidson and had found her knowledge impressive
and her writing style reader-friendly. The format
of the book pleased me as well—the sidebars
were eye-catching thought-provokers and the
type was large enough to avoid eyestrain. I
found the concept appealing, especially the
cover ‘byte’ that promotes overcoming
romantic obsession and welcoming sex into my
life. I was counting on Dr. Davidson to deliver
another tome filled with sex-positive, accurate,
and non-judgemental information.

Kiss
of Fire: (Excerpted from a review
by Joseph Bean, Leather Archives & Museum,
Chicago)
"The photography of Barbara Nitke easily
rises to the level of fine art, bringing a kind
of raw and real sexuality to a level that few
other artists even attempt. There is nothing
either salacious or illustrative in Nitke's
work. Using the light and shadow of life as
it actually looks (...) she makes portraits
of moments and passions, peopled by those who
lived the moments and the passions. She belongs
in the ranks of the great art photographers
such as Arthur Tress, George Dureau and Robert
Mapplethorpe."

Photosex:
Gather round, boys and girls. If you appreciate
looking at beautiful images of real people being
sexual, but are bored or offended by tawdry,
sensationalistic attempts at titillation, Photo
Sex is the book for you. Page after page of
sensuous, riveting depictions of folks doing
what comes naturally lead viewers into thoughtful
introspection about sexual possibilities and
expressions. Each image tells its own story,
yet David Steinberg’s skillful editing
hinges each to the next, compelling further
examination not only of the prints but of our
responses to them. Some of the photographs dance
on the edge while others are moodily loving
and sensual. Regardless your age, gender, size,
orientation, or sexual proclivities, you will
find something of yourself in these pages.
