Summary: Not perfect but precious
Comment: I've read the book 3 times over 12 years and maybe the newer additions still in print are better organized---there are problems with this one but it's short and you can skip around. If you're savvy on self help, start in the middle. What this has that is priceless and I found no where else has little to do with a couple that wants differing amounts of sex, it's this: to pay attention to what emotions you may be avoiding by initiating sex, because you can't avoid them, they ruin the sex AND the rest of your life. So yeah you end up sometimes "using sex" for therapy, and yeah she doesn't give you details on HOW to become self aware of those feelings and how to find a therpist or mate who's not so triggered by what you're doing with their own stuff that they shut you down...but how can she? The chapter on self loving is priceless and frees you from that "Ican't find anyone to do it with" block.

Summary: This book saved my life
Comment: After years of sexual addiction, ..., going to adult books stores, I engaged in sexual healing. Anne Stirling Hastings' books have helped me understand what I can do in order to discover what kind of sex is possible now that I have given up this crazy kind. I didn't know it was possible to love my wife so much, and that sex could SEEM so ordinary while it is vastly better than the old kind. I have discovered that the passion that can occur with little physical stimulation is of a different nature than what I got when having sex after watching a porn video, or having sex for the first time with a conquest. I recommend this book for anyone who really wants to find out what sex was meant to be, what it can be. My shame is greatly reduced. I don't engage in sexual jokes or inuendo any longer.

Summary: A truly awful book
Comment: The author's solution to the problem described in the book title is simply to rid yourself of all sexual hang ups; you and your partner are then free to become so much in love that sex hardly matters any more. Even if this were a reasonable solution (which it likely isnt) the book gives little useful information on how to achieve that state. The author claims "traditional" counseling can be destructive and spends a good bit of the book on sex addiction, implying that the partner who wants more sex is acting out of a pathology. She defines healthy sex as lacking urgency, expressing itself only by certain sorts of (tame) acts and existing in a state of ethereal bliss so overwhelming that one can scarcely remember what happened. The author's own (healthy) sexual experiences are recounted only because, luckily, she recorded them on paper directly after. There are cases sprinkled throughout the book but most of them will likely be unfamiliar to many readers as they do not generally include typical problems. Finally, the book is filled with bald assertions concerning what sex is truly intended for, what constitutes "healthy" and "unhealthy", what behaviours signal pathology, how couples should behave, and host of other issues (including her famous sexual moratorium which she suggests couples engage in--for perhaps a year or two!!), with no references, no explanation for her opinions and no real support for her arguments. Instead there is a bunch of jargon, unsubstantiated opining and new age posturing toward ethereal (if romantic) goals that most of us will find unrealistic, at best.

Summary: Against the grain but directly to the point.
Comment: This is the best paradigm shift on the subject of sex that I have read. The commercial standard that sex is portrayed in our society is revealed for what it is. The reader is faced with the choice to continue in that frustrating vein or open the mind to the possibilities of resusitating the natural sexuality that is in all of us.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Her solution is for the one who wants sex to wait
Comment: Her solution is to wait until both partners want sex, and then maybe longer. Say up to a year or two. I would highly recommend this book to the wife of my worst enemy.
