| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Review We live in a world obsessed with (and appalled by) sex. Open any magazine--certainly any gay male magazine--and you will find it clogged with sexualized images. But a fundamental, hardcore American puritanism still prevents open, honest, and useful discussions of sexuality. While this is true for heterosexuality, it is even more so for gay men and lesbians. Jack Hart's Gay Sex is a fine, witty, and eminently reasonable guide to being a sexually active gay man in the world today. Like Felice Picano and Charles Silverstein's The New Joy of Gay Sex (a classic in the field), Hart's book is an all-purpose guide to living a sexually energetic and fulfilling life. Gay Sex gives gay men all they need to know, from tips on how to meet men (in bars, on the Net, in the street) to negotiating safe sex (from talking to finding the right condom) to dealing with relationships (be it sex-buddy or monogamous). There are also discussions on the mental-health aspects of masturbation, fantasy, dating, bondage, S/M, recreational drugs, role-playing, and general physical well-being. Hart's writing is clear, concise, and informative; he never overloads the reader with too much scientific information or confusing detail and never adopts a patronizing or moralizing tone. By treating sex as a vital and exhilarating aspect of everyday life, he manages to both introduce these topics to the novice in unthreatening and helpful ways and inform and enlighten those who have been out and about for years. --Michael Bronski
Product Description Classic text with illustrations of gay sex. "This is a succinct and thorough encyclopedia of sexual information . . . . Author Jack Hart leavens his no-nonsense, nonjudgmental, AIDS-conscious descriptions and definitions with relaxingly sly humor and refreshingly clear-headed prose; the result is a highly readable primer of valuable how-to hints. . . ".--Richard Labonte, in THE ADVOCATE.

Its a dictionary April 28, 2005 9 out of 13 found this review helpful
This book i guess is a manual... but i would discribe it more as a dictionary. It summariz'z a word like testicals in one sentance and then talks about it in a few paragraphs. In my opinion Ultimate Gay Sex is a lot better than this book. Plus UGS has actuall photography to help get a better ideas, this book has some hand drawn pictures. Hope this helps.
Happy Day ! November 4, 2003 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
Before reading this book, I thought my embarrasing problem would not go away. Then I tried a technique described and ended up having the best night of sex in the world. Not all information in the book will be useful to everyone, but it is definately worth looking at.
Great book.. for beginners November 14, 2002 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
This book is excellent for the youngest ones, kids that are getting started with their gay lives, and when they don't know what to say, what to think, or what to do... For most of us, it is just a "fine" book, nothing we haven't already read on the internet, or discussed with our friends or boyfriend. If you think you are gonna find hot pics (as the one on the cover), tips, or something new you didn't know, you better think twice before you get this book.
Maybe the best of its genre June 20, 2002 13 out of 16 found this review helpful
Except for "The Joy of Gay Sex," how-to-books about homosexual lovemaking were still in short supply when this title reached print...Although I have a sentimental attachment to "The Joy of Gay Sex" for being the first of its kind, and the one that came along when I really needed it, Jack Hart's book is every bit its equal. I might even give it a slight edge. For other gay men, I recommend it highly.

I expected more out of this book. It is very well written in that it is to the point and witty. However, I paid $[money] for alot of information that I already knew, and could find on the internet for free. Infact most of the sites the author gives you in the book are more informative than the actual text. I don't recomend this book unless your completely new to this type of lifestyle, then I would say it is a definate read.
