The richness of this book stems from Dr. Corwin’s use of a mixed-model approach to look at relationships between women. She analyzes quantitative data extremely well, but skillfully intertwines invaluable qualitative reflections derived from her years of clinical practice. Thus, Dr. Corwin increases our knowledge about intimacy between women, but more deeply enhances that knowledge by just plain telling a lot of good stories.

This is a great book about passion and intimacy in long-term lesbian relationships. It combines research and case examples to challenge some of the most common myths about female–especially lesbian–sexuality, and offers specific suggestions to enrich sexual intimacy. Corwin covers the most common concerns that women talk about: lack of sexual desire, anxiety about orgasm, negative body image, and sexual trauma. This very positive, hopeful book is interesting and easy to read.

As a woman who’s been both vigorously heterosexual (to ~30) and lesbian since, I think this book is helpful to both types of relationships. Straight or gay, understanding (or mis-) comes from communication – and not only with others, but also with ourselves. Tricky business, that – how often do we pause to even think about, let alone ponder, what we really want and/or need? In terms of sexuality, enter this book! It’s a great read for woman “of a certain age” like me, who pretty much had assigned passion to fondly lustful memories. It reminded me that sex rarely comes along spontaneously. (It just seems that way in our callow youth, along with thinking that every experience is unique to us.) This is a great handbook to getting back your sexual life, sisters! And fasten your seatbelt for something totally rad — this book also should be read by men who love women and want to understand them better (including those still trying to divine “what women want”). So ladies, think about it – buy yourself one; buy her one; go crazy and buy him one!

Best book I’ve read in a long time. Makes me feel like someone really knows me!
Rating: 5 / 5
Sexual Intimacy for Women is a compelling, well-written and researched look at many aspects of lesbian relationships, including the impact intimacy can have. The book is very readable including actual situations her ‘composite’ clientele have been faced with and how she helped them through their issues. We can all see ourselves in these pages. Excellent read for anyone in a relationship or hoping to be in one.
