Title: Good Intentions, but Misleading Premise
Product review: The author has provided a fascinating look at history and has nicely integrated sexuality and spirituality. She also makes excellent points that reflect both the problems and solutions of today's culture. Unfortunately, her premise is based upon the sacred prostitute as an ideal archetype of the feminine essence, which limits the value and capacity of the feminine to her willingness to prostitute herself, sacred or not. The author forms words like a feminist, but I'm hard-pressed to believe that true feminism would attempt to narrow the female potential to a role of simply beauty, sensuality, and a single-minded willingness to please the male. I'm afraid the author's enthusiasm for her concept has blinded her to the limitations of the sacred prostitute as an adequate archetype to express the multifacetted potential of the feminine spirit.
