A must read for every man that has sex with men!!, 31 Aug 1999
When I decided to buy this book I was hoping for some insight info about sex with men. I am bisexual and in my country (southern Europe) sex between men is just something that nobody discusses...Dr. Goldstone knows what he is talking about, he is blunt but very informative; he goes straight to the point and gives you lots of important information on how to take the most out of gay sex and be disease free...You definitely have to read this book, even if you have been in bed with thousands of men and think "you know it all"...believe me...you don't...

Think you know it all? Read this book!, 09 Jun 1999
The topics that are covered in this book - including penis enlargement, drugs and STDs - were guided by the questions that Dr. Goldstone's patients asked him during his 15 years as a physician in New York City. The book is interspersed with stories from his practice, which reveal the intense fears, misunderstandings and, all too often, shame that gay men have about these issues. This book gives us gay men the answers we need to keep our sex hot and our bodies healthy.

Important information you should know!, 29 May 1999
This book provides lots of useful information about the parts of our bodies that we are not always comfortable talking about (in my case - my backside) I wish this books had come out a year ago, it would have saved me a lot of pain and worry. I think everybody should have copy!

For almost two decades, many have viewed the AIDS epidemic as paramount among gay men's health concerns. While never ignoring its centrality, Goldstone reminds his readers that there are myriad other considerations not only for self-identified gay men but for all "men who have sex with men." Among the wide range of sexual practices and concerns Goldstone covers are anal intercourse, sexually transmitted viral and bacterial infections, impotence, oral sex and HIV transmission, as well as recreational and prescription drug use and abuse. He also discusses ancillary cultural issues such as how being monogamous, living in an open relationship or having numerous sexual partners can affect safe sex practices. Goldstone's medical information is up-to-date and accurate; although, as he points out, treatments for AIDS change almost monthly. While the book covers the safety and health aspects of body piercing, its lack of information about the health implications of the wide range of sadomasochistic practices prevalent in the gay male community is a drawback. On the other hand, Goldstone has a positive, nonjudgmental attitude toward sex. This openness, combined with a chatty style (replete with bad jokes and not very subtle innuendo, reminiscent of David Reuben's Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex (but without the moralizing), makes Goldstone's book unusually reader-friendly.

Gay Sex Without Gloss, 06 Sep 2003
Not as detailed as Joy Of, but better in some ways by focussing on fewer issues. I like pencil sketches of men being men, and find this book a simple, non-glossy guide to the way things are, might be, and sometimes should be. It is A4 size and slim enough to slip anywhere unobtrusively for a furtive read.

There are no great revelations, but as a simple exposition of what two or more men can do together,or even alone, it is a good book to have around. If nothing else,it provides simple reassurance and some good pictures, and there are days when these alone are better than any downloads on the Internet.

I like the book, it is not a super sex manual,it is a simple low-key guide to male mating rituals, and how to do whatever you need to do with whatever equipment you have to hand; but it is without hype, and is exactly what its title says.

The focus of the book is the spiritual, followed by the sexual, and that is how Tantra should be perceived. As a general introduction to Tantra, it's scant and not very effective. Anderson believes that Tantra is the perfect spiritual path for modern gay men, because it is not dogmatic, and is based on the pleasure principle. But the connection between Tantra/Shaivism and homosexuality given in the book is just commentary, and there's no real evidence to back it up. As a 'how-to' book, it only gets into its stride toward the end, and features energy and consciousness raising practices which can improve the gay sexual experience. These core practices should not be skipped, as they are fundamental to Tantra, and it's good that Anderson emphasises this. However, we only get to the nitty gritty - the practical techniques - toward the end. This should have been a much larger book, with more information about tantra in general, a more convincing argument as to its relevance to modern gay men, and with more pictures/instruuctions.

An interesting book, but missing something......, 15 Jul 1999
It's not a bad book - however, it is really more of a compilation of questions from readers - these questions may not fit what you are curious about - and some of them definitely are not very representative. The one good attribute - who is that really cute guy on the cover - is he the author?

average., 06 Apr 1999
Although the title is named" 100 most asked q's", the actual questions are rather picked to increase readability. For sure there are some good questions that we can relate to, but most of them are either too wierd or too rare. ( e.g. one questions was about this guy turned on by going to dentist but nothing else. see what I mean?) I just found it difficult to finish reading the book. but i think it's still worth the cost. Beacuse after all, I bought it only for the cover guy(the author). (isn't he cute??)
