THE BEST BOOK EVER ABOUT LIVING AN OPEN-SEXUAL LIFESTYLE!!,
By Mike (Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities (Paperback)
As the reviewer Dolphine of "ONE OF THE MOST BRILLIANT BOOKS I'VE READ;A MUST HAVE!" Already wrote, this is indeed a brilliant book if you wish to live an responsible openly sexual lifestyle, but don't want to be an ass or ruthless heartbreaker. It clearly explains how to live this lifestyle in a ETHICAL and very responsible way, not to hurt others people's feelings or "trick" them, have sex with them and after that: dumping them. This is NOT the way to do it! "Well, can you do it in a right way then?" you might ask now. I'm gladly to tell you that you can. Read the book and see for yourself! ;-)And yes, these 2 woman really rock! They tell about there own lives as examples from wich you can learn on how to do it and not to do it. Very educational, insightful, well written and It reads very easly too. it also tells us about our cultural believesystem and myths we grow up believing and copying and because of this way of thinking we f**k-up our own lifes, trying to go against our own nature by trying to stay serial-monogames (the question is always:"Why do people cheat?". They never ask the question:"Does monogamy REALLY work?"). It definitly doesn't work for me. Do you also wish to be fully yourself and life your life in a way that works for YOU?? Read it!!

Must have in human sexual health library,
By MarionMR (DC metro area USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities (Paperback)
I enjoyed this book. It answered a lot of questions I have had about what exactly the polyamory lifestyle is. Nothing was glorified or over-exaggerated, yet by having the details laid out it was easy for me to determine the slight bias of the authors who are in the lifestyle and decide for myself what I thought of the topic. For this reason, I consider it a must read. This book was an easy, straight-forward, non-graphic discussion of non-monogamous relationships. Any human sexual health interested person should check it out. I don't think it can be used as a manual for a polyamorous lifestyle, there's no 1-2-3 checklist, but it will get you started. Even if you decided to remain at your status quo, you will be able to pick up so good tips on how to go about living and loving. In sum, I am not a practicer or believer of the polyamorous lifestyle as it is not for me, and by reading this book I was able to cement my decision and gain information beyond heresy about "ethical sluts." I encourage everyone to read through and think about the principles discussed. The information is good for anyone and everyone regardless of gender, age, or sexual persuasion.

ONE OF THE MOST BRILLIANT BOOKS I'VE READ; A MUST HAVE!,
By Delphine "proud mom of baby Kai Mana!" (Patagonia, AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities (Paperback)
As I say in the title, this is one of the best books I've read. It redefines the word "slut" and gives it a whole new meaning. The authors have both been living free lives for many years and have experience in the area. These women rock! They are two of the most free people (on that level at least) I know. This book can be very hepfull for couples who want to have an open relationship but are not sure on how to set rules to make everybody happy. It helps you define the boudaries of your couple and of your sexuality. It explains things like how we own our feelings and how to deal with them, but also things like how to reassure a partner who feels insecure if we go out on a date with somebody else, and so many other things. There is also a chart of do's and don't's of ethical sluttery and a (sarcastic) chart of things to do if you want to [mess] up your couple. There is even some advice that I consider as good for open couples than for straight couples. This book has changed my life, and I think everybody should read it!
