What "men don't get" and how to change
Finally, a book that explains what it is men don't get and what to do about it.
It explains why women suddenly lose interest in sex when the guy is really going.
It's not new age-y, it's the most grounded and sensible manual I've ever read. Here's a paragraph p. 108:
"Growing up, I was raised to treat boys and girls, men and women, equally. To me, that meant treating them the same. I simply had no idea that in intimacy, sameness is not sexy. It was a while until I learned that magnetic sexual polarity is based on the attractive play between masculine and feminine forces, which are equal in power, but also very different. Sex is the play of their differences, their push and pull, their interpenetration, union, and pleasurable unity. But a mush soup of mushy neutered sameness is not the basis for sexual play."
Taught by a man and and gives essential information for men. It describes sex on a physical level (and how many men get stuck here), then how it gets more intimate on a feeling level (and how most women function here), and even more intense when a merging unity happens between partners. YES! A book that gets beyond the physical.
I bought this for three men in my life. So good!
"Quite simply, the best sex manual in print, for the enlightened, the unenlightened, and everybody in between." ~Ken Wilber
Deida never disappoints
While I prefer David Deida's audio lectures over his written material, I am again reminded that Deida's insight is transformative and stands alone as the best in spiritual/sexual teaching.
Just awful
I ordered this book because I found the author's "Way of the Superior Man" to be fairly good. This book, however, is a skimpy combination of generic sexual advice and new age nonsense. According to this book, the secret of enlightened sex is deep breathing. I would resell it if the value exceeded the bother.
Superior Book
I'm a huge David Deida fan, and this book is one of his best. Very direct and to the point, he tells you what sex can really be and how to get there. I'd write a longer review, except I have to have sex for at least 45 minutes at a time (after reading the recommendation in this book), and so there's not as much time in my schedule these days. oh well :)
Yes, there is more to great sex...
This respectfully written little book gives you the basics for healthy love making. If you are into learning how to use sex as a doorway to communion with your inner self/partner/God & undo any energetic/physical/emotional blocks in your system, than this book will serve as a clear guide. All of David Deida's books are great. I also highly recommend "Making Love" by Barry Long. That book has some helpful information that I have found profoundly improves lovemaking, as well as some mythology that I could do without.
