Publisher's Synopsis
Having only ever experienced a true sexual release through masturbation alone, Jane gradually came to the realisation that many assumptions about female sexuality defy common sense. This book sets out her research work, which involves asking other women how they achieve the orgasms with a lover that are portrayed in erotic fiction. Jane discusses the similarities and differences between her own sexuality and the equivalent male behaviours and responses that she has observed in her male lovers.Jane Thomas's work challenges the many misconceptions and contractions in our beliefs about the orgasms women are assumed to be capable of with a lover. She asks women and their lovers to explain the erotic turn-ons, the anatomy and the stimulation technique involved in female orgasm.Jane has been so grateful to those few individuals who have been willing to comment. She has even learned from the universal silence and drawn her own conclusions from it.
