Customer Reviews

Real good!
Dr. Berman has written an excellent book for 'real' women. It's not about going crazy out there and becoming totally wild, it's about getting the most out of your relationships and how to do that. She writes with candor, in a very understandable down to earth tone that is never condescending and never puts the reader ill at ease. I thought she had some great suggestions and this book has helped me to really understand what real sex is all about. Therefore, I highly recommend it to "real" women everywhere. Another one that's helped me, also, is Sexually Shy: The Inhibited Woman's Guide To Good Sex.

the title says it all
dr. berman's latest book really is about real sex for real women. how many times have you wandered into the "sex and relationships" section, opened a book, and been completely overwhelmed or baffled by the recommendations? this is a book for those of us who aren't gymnasts, super models, or super humans. she covers the basics, as well as information for those who are simply trying to mix things up a bit in the bedroom (or living room, or kitchen...) dr. berman's background allows her to talk about the psychological aspects of human sexuality in addition to the mechanics. her sections about communication and how stress or depression or emotional issues can affect your sex life provide a level of insight you don't get in just any book about sex. i've recommended this book to all my girlfriends and my partner (and theirs) are grateful!

opened my eyes to what sex is all about!
i stumbled upon real sex for real women and i am so glad i did. i already told all of my girlfriends about it. i love that the pictures are of real people...not fake looking models. reading this book has shown me that exploring my sex life is an important part of being a woman, regardless of age, body shape, etc. yes i might be the mother of 3 kids and i have been married for 13 years, but i realized while reading this book that i am still sexy!!
