Summary of Alex Comfort's The Joy of Sex

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:

#1 There are four types of readers for this book. First, there are those who don’t like it, find it disturbing, and would rather stay the way they are. Second, there are those who are with the idea but don’t like our choice of techniques. Third, people will use our notes as a personal one-couple notebook from which they might get ideas.

#2 The people we are addressing are the adventurous and uninhibited lovers who want to find the limits of their ability to enjoy sex. We take some things for granted, such as having intercourse naked and spending time over it.

#3 The solo, by contrast, is when one partner is the player and the other the instrument. The aim of the player is to produce results on the other’s pleasure experience as extensive, unexpected, and wild as his or her skill allows. The instrument does lose control, but this is not a problem if it ends in an uncontrollable ensemble.

#4 There are only two rules in good sex, aside from the obvious one of not doing things that are dangerous or antisocial. One is: Don’t do anything you don’t enjoy, and the other is: Find out your partner’s needs and don’t balk at them if you can help it.
