Product Description
Review
This is certain to be another controversial bestseller from the infamous author of previous sex surveys. Her methodology has been criticized and her inferences are sometimes stretched, yet her subjects reveal more about 'Western' family life than cold statistics could ever match. Her findings are often shocking and challenging to traditional assumptions - for example, boys emerge as psychologically and emotionally better off growing up without fathers. The brutality and the distance which some parents contrive to put between themselves and their children is chillingly portrayed, while the characteristics of good parent-child relationships, with intimacy, genuine respect and friendship, though rarer, emerge with clarity. Hite offers some provocative suggestions for improving the lot of boys and girls of the future which parents would do well to contemplate. (Kirkus UK)
Synopsis
This book represents the answers to a questionnaire by 3,500 women between the ages of 14 and 78, in which they describe in detail their most intimate feelings about sex. The author has also written "The Hite Report on Male Sexuality" and "Women in Love - A Cultural Revolution in Progress".
