Summary: Detailed and helpful but somtimes cold.
Comment: I purchased this book before my honeymoon in hopes of ithelping my wife and I get the maximun enjoyment out of sex in ourmarrige. The first few chapters are rather dry and cold speaking mostly of anatomy and the like. After that there are some excellent tips to making sex very enjoyable and not discouraging, especially if its your first time. These chapters helped me tremendously in finding out what God intended for sex and pleasing my wife. All the tips he gives in these chapters are very long and tedious. If you think you have these problems prepare yourself for some fun but hard work. Lots of practice sessions with total vulnerability with your partner. And probably with some disappointments. It can be tedious reading but stick with it, it is helpful. Some of the commentary is very clinical and dry, but helpful when you apply it. I really saw the heart of the writers, which is to help and instruct people to have the most fulfilling sex life as possible. END

Summary: 80 complete on a 1-100 scale
Comment: After listening to Ed Wheat's tapes for newlyweds and then reading this book with my new wife we have found many useful things to apply to our marriage and sex life. We have however found several severe errors in his teachings.
Dr. Wheat takes a very mechanical approach to sexual pleasure in marriage especially for the woman. Even as another man I can see it is too obvious that his very logical and systematic approach to sex is flawed. It is not as simple as if you do step 1, 2, and 3 then orgasm will occur. The female body AND mind are much more complex than this! He also goes into such detail in areas which do not apply (PAP smear?) to the general reader, and fails to mention that there are some very common physical problems many women experience which prevents sexual intercourse on the wedding night - often requiring minor surgery.
We found Dr. Wheat's book VERY useful, however it did fall short of giving couples a complete and realistic picture of sex in the Christian marriage. It is definitely worth the money and a book to review many times over the years; however, it should be read with a very open mind and not taken as being the only way for things to be.

Summary: A contradiction in terms
Comment: I have found that christian women are among the most sexually active and adventurous women on the market today. Especially the married ones who have husbands who refer to genesis and leviticus for their tips on sexuality. As a result, this book does nothing but confuse the issues that many married christian women face in coming to a decsion to seek sexual gratification outside the marriage. I often hear from these women that their husbands are inattentive, uncaring and certainly not concerned with their wives sexual needs. You can't teach an old dogmatist new tricks, especially when they have no desire to contradict the dictates of the bible that requires them to treat their wives like livestock. While on the otherhand Christian women seem to be very adept at whatever sexual activity you offer them, so much of the information in this book is yesterday's news to them. If only there was a chapter on Guilt relief, then we would be getting somewhere.
