Negative Positive
Title: Highly disappointing
Review: I remember reading the original version of this book as a teenager some 30 years ago and thinking I was well-informed on the topic of sexuality. Was I ever wrong! When I read parts of this updated version, I was shocked. It seems the good doctor is uncomfortable with anyone outside of heterosexual married couples. Anyone practicing any form of sexual expression he doesn't quite understand is either lonely, maladjusted, or a sociopath. <sigh>Among his claims: People into SM are out to recruit you, gays are all promiscous, and that menopausal women become "masculinized." Frankly, I became so disgusted after reading half of the book, I didn't read any further. Dr. Reuben's prejudices are obvious and it is a shame they clouded what might have been a good reference book.There are many other good books about sexuality on the marketplace that are worth your money. Sad to say, this isn't one of them.
Is the review positive or negative?
