What did you think of "Sex at Dawn?"

Assuming you read it.

I'd like to hear Susie's answer as well as anyone else here too.

    I enjoyed "S@D" tremendously.

    I had a great surprise when I wrote a letter to thank the authors. I appreciated Chris and his partner for their ambitious efforts, and asked them if we could schedule an interview on my audio show.

    To my surprise, the two of them were overcome— and told me that I was one of their inspirations to write the book in the first place. Hugs and Rants all around!

     I was, at the time, struggling to write the "sound-bite" blurb for my memoir on Amazon, and Chris just grabbed his pen and wrote the darn thing for me. It was like Instant Author Support Group.

    Okay, enough of the heartwarming behind-the-scenes!

    The reason "S@D" means a great deal to me is that it gives people rational, objective tools to talk about monogamy/non-monogamy, instead of beating themselves up over their perceived "sins" and "flaws."

    Human sexual curiousity is certainly not a design flaw, species-wise. We are made to crave both familiarity and variety— that's the way we roll.

    S@S also drives a stake in the heart into some of the hamfisted, conservatigve claims of "evolutionary psychology," which I have had it UP TO HERE WITH.  

    I can't wait to see what they're going to write next.
