Riassunto

Over 20 years ago, Masters and Johnson established that women have at least as great a capacity for sexual pleasure as men. Yet many women take very little pleasure in sex. What goes wrong? To find out, Margaret Leroy talked to a wide cross-section of women of all ages. As they revealed their experiences and feelings, she found herself exploring issues of faking and self-effacement, how girls are brought up to think of their sexuality, the waxing and waning of desire, libido - or the loss of it - after childbirth and in middle age, fantasy, glamour, masochism, and the concepts of beauty and ugliness. In this book, Leroy opens a window on women's sexual pleasure, and how different it is from men's, and offers a vision of how female sexuality could be better fulfilled.
