Passionista - A Book

I recently stumbled upon a book called Passionista: The Empowered woman's guide to pleasuring a man by Ian Kerner, PhD and I am LOVING IT!!! It inspired me to start up a focus group for women based on it. We will meet for five weeks as we devour the book and explore the principles.

I want to note that Dr. Kerner also wrote a book for men titled She Comes First: The thinking man's guide to pleasuring a woman.

Three quotes off the bat that gripped me and are the reason I want to share it with other women:

"If most of us live in a world where the best sex we never had is the best sex we ever had, then it is of little wonder that sexual problems are among the leading causes of divorce and relationship dissatisfaction."

"The number two reason for divorce in this country, after financial conflict, is sexual dissatisfaction, and a crucial part of the problem is lack of communication and poor information."

"Love, is indeed, mysterious. Sexual ignorance, however, is not. It's a function of laziness, prejudice and fear. The more we learn about sex, the more there is to appreciate, understand and savor."

He sectioned the book off into two sections -- the first is about the Male Anatomy, Brain, Mind. The second introduces more technique-based advise. He warns women not to skip the first part if they cannot answer the following questions. I found the questions interesting, to say the least, and I can't wait to read more!!!

~ What's the best sex toy money can't buy?
~ What are the three types of erections all men experience?
~ IS your guy faking it? That's right, faking it. How do you know for sure?
~ How can a properly administered pelvic massage actually help to lengthen your partner's penis?
~ If, as the poet Ogden Nash wrote, "Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker," what are the brain's natural sex-stimulants, and how do you get them flowing?
~ What's the difference between orgasm and ejaculation, and are the two inextricably linked?
~ Do you know the difference between a "local" orgasm and a "global" orgasm and how to stimulate the latter?

I love how one never stops learning and growing!! I look forward to spending five weeks immersed in this book with other women who want to learn and live empowered.
