The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex, Third Edition by Alpha

Oooooooooooo!!! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhnnnn!! D-D-Don't Stop Reviewing Me HARDER!! Y-Y-Yesssss!! I'm Climaxiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!!!!

The Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex is a double-edged sword because it may show you kinky techniques you may not have been privy to before, but it confirms your disrepute as being sexually inexperienced, still too "innocent" for these over-sexualized times we live in, which isn't necessarily disadvantageous. Upon reading this book, the conscientious reader has to intellectually honestly ask himself/herself some questions.

1) Since copulation is natural, why do I need instructions/advice on how to "do it?" Am I just afraid of sex or am I retarded?
2) Why do I require p*rverse and abnormal "techniques" to "spice up" sex and keep me interested? Am I a sexual deviant? Do I obligatorily need higher levels of unconventional sex to satisfy my bent character?
3) Why don't I realize my lustful craving for more deviant forms of sex is ultimately the impediment to forming real, lasting relationships with the opposite sex?

If you've the guts to ask one of these queries, congratulations!!!! You've already gone a ways to confessing you've psychological, moral and spiritual problems for chasing after the "knowledge" within Amazing Sex.

Locker's libertine/lecher ideology is endorsed in Chapter 1 where she unaccountably raises the risks of teen pregnancy by writing ANYONE is ready for sex if they merely think (that's right, subjectively T-H-I-N-K) they can handle its consequences. According to Locker, these include knowing what to do if one contracts an STD or becomes pregnant. So, in the untrustworthy minds of impressionable teenagers, if they think they're "adult" enough to hypothesize what they'd do in case of the aforementioned, this makes them "ready" to surrender their God-given gift of virginity/purity--instead of saving themselves for marriage!!!!

Locker's frivolous advice focusing on the ideology of "If it feels good, do it!!!!!" also arrives at questionable contradictions, like when she advises one's ready for sex if one's emotionally responsible for the consequences, yet then in the next "advice," she writes one's also "ready" if one's able to handle contracting STDs or unwanted pregnancies. It goes without saying that one's egregiously unprepared for sex if one contracts an STD or curses a baby by monstrously creating an unwanted pregnancy.

Locker's trivial advice is further verified through sex-coupons she coquettishly encourages. These coupons obviously are for the idiot couple who aren't attracted enough physically to each other for sex; that's why they need these gimmicks to get off. These sophomoric coupons offer all kinds of lewd abominations like "quickies," phone sex, nature sex and the delusion known as role-playing. All these coupons offer misguidedly aberrant sex that only encourages unnaturalness.

Appallingly shocking is the graphic, hardcore use of p*rnography in the book, masquerading as advice. In the middle, there are a few, explicit photos showing a couple (who probably AREN'T even married!!!!) in various, "alternative" positions. To the liberal Locker, just having sex in the good, old-fashioned and most normal missionary position--so-called due to the woman's leg-position, for all you newbie libs--is booooring!

So, she delinquently proposes these utterly twisted positions called the "Wheelbarrow" (man enters woman from behind while lifting pelvis in air as legs curl around his back while her hands are on ground); the "Crab" (woman lowers herself onto man's erect member with back to him and feet straddling his legs); and the "Butterfly" (woman spreads legs while arms are flailing as man kneels and penetrates from front). For my money, my personal faves in Locker's photos are the "Gang-Bang" (several guys emotionlessly take turns on woman), the "Cleveland Steamer" (woman defecates on man's face), and the "Menage-a-Trois" (everyone involved leaves feeling unfulfilled).

As distressing is Locker's write-up on the hand-job (for you newbie-libs: stimulating the member with a hand!) because she indecently recommends couples employ that casually on a plane, at the movies, or even behind a desk at work!!!! One certainly CANNOT employ this libertine technique so liberally in public; this would be illicit. Dilapidating from the topic of the hand-job comes mutual masturbati*n, which is--again, for newbie libs!--both partners using hands on each other. Locker purports this will result in simultaneous orgasm, voyeurism/exhibitionism, and a more intimate understanding of your partner's response. Her "advice" is impractical, so don't listen to her. Getting somebody off through a hand-job is hard enough. Mutual masturb*tion will only complicate things because you'll have to focus on two things simultaneously: orgasming and pleasing your partner.

Amazing Sex is a cheaply veiled excuse to let one's inner libertine run wild: it's filled with all the taboo tips that'd tantalize and serve as wet dreams for the pubescent boy demographic. In this context, Amazing Sex is both censurable and disappointing--seeing how it's supposedly written by the PHD-holding Locker--because it subserves the lowest common denominator on the sex topic: basest animal desires. Instead of impressing the reader with knowledge becoming a PHD-holding sex "expert" (like, say, healthy sexual behavior), Locker espouses the most uninhibited, liberal ideology of "If it feels good, do it!!!!"

INFORMATIVE AND OCCASIONALLY SHOCKING

This is a great book for virgins and beginners. It runs the gamut of sex information from self-pleasuring to couples' sex to kinky sex. There was so much information, it was overwhelming. I bought it because I wanted to learn more about how to pleasure my man through fellatio. This book was very helpful, but ultimately, I found Was that an earthquake? The Sensuous Couple's (Flip Over) Guide to Seismic Oral Sex to be more so. It is a flip over book, which means one side is devoted to fellatio, then flip it over and the second book is everything you need to know about cunnilingus. I read the first book, then gave it to my boyfriend, and he read the second book, and when we put it all together, sparks flew!

BETTER THAN BEST SEX

This book is awesome, with great pictures and up to date info on Viagra, birth control and safe sex. I loved the information on oral sex. It is a real eye-opener, providing insight for each partner. I recommend this book for any couple interested in improving their relationship, sexually and otherwise. If you aren't having problems, don't wait to read the book. Be proactive in preventing problems later.
An excellent companion book is SEISMIC ORAL SEX. That's not the full title, but you can find it from the search term. Re-introducing oral sex into our marriage has helped both of us. The language is clear and forthright, the tone is light and helpful and the technical aspects are fully covered. It's a guide for couples, with fellatio on one side and cunnilingus on the other. The tips and ideas really helped my marriage and it's in a cute flip over format.

Funny, Informative and Thorough

OK, the title may strike you as weird. I certainly thought: "Why do I want an IDIOT's guide to sex??" But, in reading through the book, you quickly realize that this isn't a book for idiots. It's actually a great reference on how to heat up your sex life. I've been looking for new ways to keep my sex life interesting and fresh and this book gave me lots of great ideas. I was also interested in learning about tantric sex and the author, Sari Locker, gives a succinct introduction to the subject. Overall, I think this is a good book that could be very helpful to couples who just want to spice things up a bit! Additional book I found very helpful and valuable is The Master's Guide to Cunnilingus: How to Perform Successful Oral Sex and Provide the Highest Degree of Pleasure Possible

This should be everyone's guide to sex education

This is the best sex guide to hit the shelves. Its relaxed feel makes sex sound like a fun thing to do rather than a chore. It doesn't just deal with sex and foreplay but myths, beliefs, finding a compatible partner, communication, sexual confidence, being gay, sex and pregnancy and, vitally important, sexual health.

Sexy is as sexy does, according to Sari Locker (called "our favorite tantalizing sex writer" by Playboy magazine). But how to feel sexy if you're a virgin, or if you've experienced sexual problems, or have serious body image hang-ups? The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex succeeds in not only teaching technique (as well as a book can), but also offers serious advice for boosting your self-esteem. As with other Complete Idiot guides, you'll probably want to turn this one backwards in your bookcase, or at least get a book cover for it. But get past the silly title and you'll find a plethora of facts, tips, and tricks on topics including sexual response, masturbation, foreplay, afterplay, oral sex, fantasy, sex toys, sexual preference, cross-dressing, and "The Big Om": tantric sex.

The margin notes liberally decorating the book are worth a hearty chuckle. The "Sextistics" are particularly fun and eye-opening. Some examples: only 9 percent of people surveyed believe sex appeal is innate; the rest feel it can be acquired!; about 7 percent of women have never climaxed; the majority of male crossdressers are married with children; and, according to the Hite Report, nearly 60 percent of men ages 61 to 75 said their desire for sex remained steady or increased with age, Viagra or no.

Locker, a sex educator and WCBS-TV relationship correspondent, has been a sex educator for more than a decade. That said, she should have placed the facts on contraceptives and sexually transmitted diseases earlier in the book, before the hot and heavy photographs of sexual positions. That gripe aside, Amazing Sex is worth investigating by both sexual neophytes and experienced couples looking to maintain a state of hot monogamy.


Watching the Alpha Geeks: OS X and the Next Big Thing
Tim O’Reilly’s WWDC keynote: “There have been an amazing number of iBooks at recent O’Reilly conferences. The adoption by key OSS communities and leaders is also striking. For example: most of the Perl core team is now on OS X; James Gosling, Duncan Davidson, and a lot of other key Java developers; P2P developers; many of the key developers in bioinformatics.”

O’Reilly Mac OS X Conference
O’Reilly: “One thing that’s been overwhelmingly clear this year is that the alpha geeks are choosing Mac OS X. Why? Mac OS X is one of the most exciting things happening in the industry today. It’s the confluence of three great traditions—Unix/open source, Java, and the Mac—and the best of all worlds.”

I may go. Sounds like fun.
