Who is best equipped to give sex tips to heterosexual women about how to please a man in bed? Why, gay men, of course. Who would know better than gay men what makes men happy? Dan Anderson (gay) and best friend Maggie Berman (straight) have collaborated on this how-to book for women who feel that their lovers are afraid to ask for what they want. Chatty, informative, and graphic--in a clinical, not sexy way--Anderson and Berman have borrowed a little from Helen Gurley Brown, a little from Miss Manners, and a lot from Masters and Johnson to show women how the other half loves. Never smug and mostly useful, Sex Tips shows that sexual orientation can as easily be a potluck as a culture clash.

Summary: Goes down real smooth with a little humor
Comment: I first purchased this book years ago. I have since purchased it several more times to give as a gift. I have sold "romance enrichment" products for 7 years. I am a clearing house for information for my customers. I did find this book to contain ideas not found in other books, so it is not just a repeat of general information that is easily found elsewhere. More than anything, I appreciate the humor. Humor is a valuable tool in helping us through subject matter that we may find uncomfortable. I think a couple could read this together, maybe at bedtime for kicks. My hope would be that the content may facilitate open conversation. Reading it as an individual would provide the lucky reader with an arsenal of tricks and treats. I highly recommend this book. It is not like other "sex tip" books. It's a fun read. Enjoy.

Summary: Perfect!
Comment: I am a single gal in Chicago, and sadly, I have no gay male friends these days.
This book was recommended to me by Amazon when I was searching for flirting how-to books.
This may be sold as a sex tip book, but it has everything a woman needs!
The advice is no-nonsense, easy to digest and retain, and helpful on every level. The flirting tips work, I swear! The physical pleasuring tips work well, from what my partners have said, and I have observed. I have even followed some of the tips on bedroom design and I am really pleased with the result.
This is advice any man could tell you, but straight men will be quiet about it, and gay men won't tell you unless you know to ask. So I recommend this book to every woman looking to find, hook, and keep a man, or men.
Indispensable!

Summary: Excellent and funny advice
Comment: This is a wonderful book, written with joy and insight, and illustrated with a sense of humor that entertains but also educates. Honestly, this book was so good at explaining the mechanics and reasoning behind the things that make a man happy sexually that I would recommend it for nearly every heterosexual couple.
The illustrations all involve food, suggesting that the bedroom is a woman's kitchen of love. If your girlfriend is a foodie, this will help get her involved and excited about "whipping up" some fun lovin'.

Summary: ...Agree with rexross (previous reviewer)
Comment: I picked this book up at a bookstore and after reading a few pages had to buy it.
Now I am buying my fourth copy.
Whever I mention this book to a friend, they inevitably want to borrow it...and it never comes home to me again!
What does that tell you?
-- The authors are onto something :) And everyone seems to appreciate what they have to say.
I learned a lot from this little book, and love the drawings. It's done with a breezy chatty style, and opens the discussion about sex and pleasure without being too 'director-like' if you know what I mean. The humor is well done. Among other things, there are practical tips about being a thoughtful 'sleepover hostess' I believe I understand men's desires and needs better.
Treat yourself to this little book of jems!
I'm glad I did!

Summary: Okay, but nothing exceptional
Comment: This book is full of great one liners and offers a great perspective from the eyes of a man who knows what men wants, but it's nothing special. Many of the "insider tips" are items I've read before in a good issue of Maxim or Cosmopolitan. It was given to me as a gift by my gay best friend who thought it was funny, and it is. But I'd read it more for the fun dialogue between the authors than as a go-to guide.
