No Sex in the City: One Virgin’s Confessions of Love, Lust, Dating & Waiting
{ 5 comments… read them below or add one }
While I appreciate the author’s views on waiting until marriage to have sex, I was a little unimpressed with some of the preoccupations of this book. I feel like the author felt she had to reassure both the reader and herself that she is an attractive woman. Many of the personal stories she shares had little more insight than that. Just an observation that I felt turned too much attention to herself and not enough on her subject matter. The book also tends to become redundant after the first few chapters. I wished I had just saved my money. There are many more books out there on this subject that are more worth your time and money.

I just finished a book written by Lindsey N. Isham, No Sex in the City; One Virgin’s Confession on Love, Lust, Dating, and Waiting. Very well written and challenging for a woman, me, who is trying to start a new way of life. I have every mental intent to be abstinent until I remarry (if ever). The problem is, as Lindsey so eloquently explains, society doesn’t live that way anymore.
The interesting thing about her book is that she is a beautiful, gorgeous thirty something who is fighting societal norms to follow Gods advise for relationships and seeks His ways for selecting a mate. She provides her tips on finding a Godly mate and how to date without compromising her morals. It is a short, quick read, written with a witty humor and based on Biblical principals. I applaud Lindsey for her courage of convictions and the mental fortitude to live outside of societal norms. She challenges society to approach relationships with God colored glasses versus rose colored glasses.
The largest challenge from living this type of life is the small percentage of men who live a Christian life, then finding one who you are compatible with who could potentially be a mate. Many say they are “Christian” but they are not walking a Christian walk. Reading Lindsey’s book has bolstered my courage to continue to try to live in abstinence.

It is so refreshing to read a story of a young woman who knows what she believes & sticks to that with no compromises. This book came to me at the perfect time in my life when I was struggling with relationships and boundaries with men. Lindsey Isham’s humor & personal stories made this book so fun & easy to read. I started reading it before I left for a trip for Europe & ended up bringing it with me so I could finish it in Mykonos, Greece! It was such an encouragement to me seeing a woman with such great conviction about staying a virgin & all the reasons why it is healthy to wait until marriage to have sex. I am a 23 year old virgin & proud of it! Lindsey’s writing helped me to feel empowered to stick to my personal morals & beliefs. I am forever grateful to God for leading me to her book release party so that I could read this book. I’ve already read it twice now & it has truly changed my life!

I had a chance to meet the author at Spirit West Coast music festival, and she is genuine. I read the book on my flight back, and it was very interesting to read a female’s perspective on sex before marriage. For those of you, unmarried individual, who are struggling with staying pure, please do yourself a favor, and read this book! It will definitely encourage you in your pursuit to please God in your relationship.

I recently got this book after being frustrated with still not finding that one girl that God has for me (if he has for me). I love the way Lindsey talks so openly about girls way of thinking about sex. I know that I struggle with lust on a daily basis, but for a girl to deep dive and totally expose us into her mind of lustful thoughts about men was refreshing. Now, I’m not saying “lust” is a good thing, but it shows her honesty and struggles in the book that we all deal with daily. Sometimes as guys, I think we think that girls just aren’t in it for sex, but only companionship and eventually kids. It puts a different perspective that girls are just as equally interested in sex as guys are, but their hot buttons are completely different from guys. In addition, this book also shows how a relationship should be about serving each other and selfless love. It shows us how a Godly relationship should function and eventually function into a marriage relationship. The book also gives a new hope in marriage in a society in which the institution of marriage is being threatened daily. I highly recommend this book for those struggling with the pressures of society telling you to have sex or pressuring to settle down because everyone else is doing it.
