Book Description

Humorous, helpful look at the scary side of sex: • "Well, she said she was eighteen." • "Hey, where'd the condom go?" • "Eww, how do I get these stains out of the sheets?" Top sex educators and a consulting team of attorneys, cops, EMTs, therapists and sex educators team up to create an enjoyable--and factually accurate--guide to surviving awkward moments in the bedroom, back seat, or bushes. Learn what to do about: • a jammed handcuff • a short-circuited vibrator • a cop peering in your car window

Plus, the book includes a section on Extremely Complicated Instructions For Simple Stuff: Get To Know Your Condom, A Man's Guide To Menstruation; A Woman's Guide To Erections, and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's funny unless it happened to you:), April 20 2004
By 
girldiver "Enjoy!" (tangled up in blue.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sex Disasters: And How to Survive Them (Paperback)
You know it's going to be entertaining and informative when the first chapter says, "I can't get this kawk ring off!" The titles of the contents alone are a chuckle unless it's happened to you. Written in a humorous and lighthearted manner this book is both entertaining and to the point. Addressing the many difficult uh oh's that exist but know one shared solutions with you until now and all conveniently located at your finger tips in 174 pages.

The intimate nature of sex makes it difficult for people to discuss both the pitfalls and joys of erotic behavior. SEX DISASTERS helps with the mishaps you might encounter and help you avoid situations before they happen. Just knowing some generalities that you didn't get in your high school sex education class or even in your current sexual experience might help you now and in the future.

Sex is enjoyable, funny at times, and dangerous. SEX DISASTERS helps you with the general what ifs, oh no, and the really big OMG problems that happen under the sheets, on top of the sheets, and all tied up in the sheets. This book is for all persons; the beginners and the experienced and if your not participating in sex than this book is for you for no other reason than to get a good laugh from the titles and illustrations.

Covering topics from a variety of issues my favorite sections always started with "Extremely Complicated Instructions for Simple Stuff". Topics covered under "Extremely Complicated Instructions for Simple Stuff: were usually general guides for menstruation, how to put on a condom, knowing your way around women's underwear, and a woman's guide to male sexual response to name a few. Also, the simplest to the most complicated subjects are covered and discussed; from how to get certain stains out to legal and safety aspects. Both Ms. Hardy and Dr. Moser carefully address each topic with a variety of other professionals in specific fields of law, psychology, and yes even a veterinarian. Now I ask you, where was this book when I was eighteen? I really could have used the section, 'every woman's guide to male sexual response' or even passed this book to my younger siblings every time they asked me a question.

I found this book witty, more helpful than any parental talk I ever got, and informative on a level easy to comprehend. This book is a must for anyone having sex!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perverted Superheroes Save the Day!, May 11 2002
By 
Jaina A Davis (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sex Disasters: And How to Survive Them (Paperback)
This book rocks. I laughed so hard I peed my pants. Luckily there's a guide to stain and stink removals in here.
With helpful advice from a slew of experts in law, psychology, health and, yes, textiles, Moser and Hardy take on a parade of dilemmas. Mysterious itches, potential stalkers and faulty vibrators are reduced to manageable proportions. Practical guides to condoms, menstruation, genital shaving and other less urgent concerns round out this collection of handy hints. James Kochalka adds to the merriment with some mighty fine illustrations.
My advice is to read this book before you need it. The problems are listed randomly, and with no index you have to flip through to find your particular solution. Related topics are cross-referenced for your convenience. Hopefully, you'll never need this book. So, just pass it around at a party and take turns reading aloud, laughing at the poignant foibles of mankind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Light book about some not-so-funny problems, May 3 2002
By 
Todd Hawley (San Francisco CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sex Disasters: And How to Survive Them (Paperback)
This book takes numerous predicaments that any of us might find ourselves in with no real idea how to get out of them and offers no-nonsense advice. Whether it's the dog that gets a little "too territorial" toward you, dealing with the authorities in the event of a noise complaint when you and your partner are doing SM, having your kids walk in on you while you're having sex or walking in on him or her having sex, or dealing with an emotionally unstable person you've brought home to "play" with, it gives good advice and solutions on how to deal with the issue at hand.

I really liked the section on shaving your or your partners genitals, and most importantly (for we men), a section about menstruation. Damn I could have used this book 20 years ago! This book may not be the greatest alterntive lifestyle book in the history of mankind, but it still is very handy to have around, because one never knows when a "sex disaster" will strike.
