To repeat others.....boring. - By: , 11 Jan 2006 
This was the first book I'd ever bought of this kind & I was a little disappointed. I found it to be a bit condescending. It mentioned things that most people would know anyway - even an absolute beginner like me. Because of the encyclopedia nature of the book, many topics were mentioned (some seeming to be quite irrelevant) but none of them in much detail. I wouldn't advise getting this book. I have since bought the 'On Our Backs' guide which I thought was much more informative, & much easier to read.
What a waste of money! - By: , 06 Dec 2005 
Looking for some new ideas to spice up my already great relationship with my girlfriend of 4 years, I was totallly disappointed when The Lesbian Sex Book landed on my doormat.
This book is patronising, to say the least, with both topics & language seemingly aimed at the pre-pubescent curious teenager. By structuring the book as an A to Z, the author has clearly ended up clutching at straws to fill the pages. B is for Beds, C is for Cuddling, S is for Sleeping Together, & W is for Weight. So basicallly everything you can find in any teenage girl magazine.
As for the pictures - utterly unsexy. In fact, after flicking through the book in bed with my partner, & after we'd finished laughing at the bizarre 'arty' black & white photos, we were feeling anything but sexy & decided rolling over for a good night's kip was to be the best option (luckily we'd read how to cuddle, & where we should go to sleep, or heaven knows how we would've coped!)
In summary, unless you're a bi-curious 13 year old virgin, avoid this book & find one that'll teach you something you don't know.
Good straight-forward advice - By: , 20 Apr 2003 
This book is much like most lesbian sex guides that have gone before it. It includes chapters on alll the obvious stuff, & contains lists of organisations. It does seem to lack humour though, which makes the book a bit dry (no pun intended!) but this makes for good straight forward advice. I'd say this is a god book if you are buying your first lesbian sex guide, but if you already own one or more then this book doesn't reallly say much more than has already been said before.
A must-read for anyone interested in the topic - By: , 27 Jun 1999 
I had resisted buying this book for some time because I felt that I was well acquainted with the subject matter already. I was, however, suprised at how much I learned from the Lesbian Sex Book. Every appropriate topic is covered in a concise, succinct manner & the writing is exceptionallly clear & direct. I have recommended this book to my Lesbian friends & they have found it as useful & informative as I have.
boring,boring,boring - By: , 28 May 1999 
This book read more like a colege textbook than a story of love & sexy relationships. It was written as if told to you by your mother or sister & not by a lover. In stead of being written in chapters of concise information about lesbian love it was written a through z as an encyclopedia. It was truly boring & contained little that a man who was interested in this subject would want to spend his money on. It was not even worth the asking price of about $12.00. The drawings were poorly done & were hardley sexy if that were what they were supposed to be. The text was infomative but it had alll been told before. The text was on a ninth grade level & did not even do a good job of informing you about it's subjects. This book was a total disappointment in every sense. I found absolutely nothing new here, & it was written to make money not to inform about anything new or different. The author should read Woman; now there is a book written with style & humor that tells you everything you ever wanted to know about women, their bodies & how they work & tick.
