I enjoyed the 2/3rd’s or so of this book. Very interesting. The last 1/3rd not so much. Too many pages spent on SMBD for me. But if that’s your thing it may be your favorite part. Overall the book let me wanting more of the other topics. I suppose I have to recommend it if the subject of sex interests you.

As an individual with friends from the far “right” to the far “left”, I can tell you that this book pulls no punches and tells it exactly like it is. We all have that “personification” that we want the general public to see, but only our close friends and confidants know how we are behind closed doors. This book gives us a picture as to the attitudes and activities that are taking place behind those closed doors! We really aren’t that conservative…we just don’t want others knowing it!

This is an interesting read that takes a look at sex in America through the view point of many different ordinary people. The book crosses the country, so it doesn’t convey a regional bias, and the author stays mostly impartial, so doesn’t pass judgement on either the religious preachers with whom he meets or the sex club participants. Don’t expect to be shocked by the book, nor learn any amazing secrets or facts. It looks at ordinary people (for the most part) doing what is ordinary to them (but perhaps not for all readers), that are involved in various aspects of expression of sexuality. But it covers a mix of situations and how people react to them, and that is the heart of what is interesting about the book.

America Unzipped is the story of one man’s cross-country travels in search of America’s sex culture. What he finds may surprise some, but most likely it will sound normal to most. And that is the point of the book. What used to be America’s sex sub-culture, is now mainstream and practiced by folks of all walks of life. It’s interesting how people describe themselves, in that most are proud republicans who attend church regularly, but still frequent sex toy shops and engage in less-than-monogamous relationships. This book is an exploration to determine just how widespread this former sub-culture really is. Has it expanded so much that it is now considered the norm? What brought about this sudden change…the internet? The people the author meets have opinions of their own, but its the collection of their experiences that helps shed light on the subject and may offer some answers to these questions.

Brian Alexander’s America Unzipped: In Search of Sex and Satisfaction is one of the most informative and entertaining books about sex that I’ve had the pleasure of reading. Alexander set out on a journey to explore the sexual mores and activities of middle America. Do “normal” Americans behave conservatively in the bedroom, or do they indulge in wild sexual expressions — even activities their neighbors and pastors might brand as “deviant” or “perverted”?
