Shocking, fun and illuminating, this book dares to break the silence as men across the nation share their uncensored fantasies and innermost wants without reservation. Challenging myths about men and sexuality, over 70 fantasies from over 500 men provide reassurance to men that they are not alone--and offer their unique insight to women as to what really makes men tick.
The "Testosterone Curtain" is coming down, according to Berkowitz (What Men Won't Tell You but Women Need to Know), who believes there has been a dramatic change in American men's sexual attitudes over the past two decades. They are now more open to talk about their sex lives and willing, even eager, to deal with women who have sexual minds of their own. Berkowitz also reports a boom in oral sex and in fantasies about threesomes. Based, he claims, on fantasies described by "roughly five hundred men," this is something of an anthology that covers the range of masturbatory daydreams from prostitutes to sex in public to the mnage trois to group sex to hard-core S&M. Berkowitz is uneasy about S&M that goes beyond fantasy and thinks the mnage trois has the greatest potential of any of the aforementioned activities for "doing damage to a couple's relationship." The fantasies included here are reported with breathless enthusiasm and detail. Despite the so-called categories of fantasy describedand whatever happened to gays and bisexuals?one gets the impression that all men think alike, which is itself a fantasy.
