4.0 out of 5 stars Very funny - great little present!, 6 Dec 2008
By L. White (colchester, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is perfect as a stocking filler or e ven for a present for a hen night. It is a guide for new wives or wives to be about sex, but written by someone who clearly dislikes sex and thinks its evil. Very funny though had me in complete stitches. It's a tiny little book though, would have liked a bit more really!

5.0 out of 5 stars absolutely hilarious, 26 Jun 2009
Ruth Smythers - more frigid than any ice cube! I need to buy this book in bulk because it makes a great gag gift for any future bride. Such gems of advice for the bride in this book include:

"Give Little, Give Seldom, And Above All, Give Grudgingly."

"Sex, when it cannot be prevented, should be practiced only in total darkness."

"When he finds her, the wife should lie as still as possible. Bodily motion on her part could be interpreted as sexual excitement by the optimistic husband."

This may have been written in the Victorian era, but even good ol' Queen Vicky would've had a hard time following Ruth's advice.

Sex Tips For Husbands & Wives From 1894 - Read it. Learn it. Live it...if you dare.
