Extraordinary Sex

by Sandra R. Scantling

Based on the help she has provided for the thirty to forty couples a week she has seen in her twenty years of clinical practice as a sexual therapist, Dr. Sandra R. Scantling has written a new erotic guide to restoring the vital connections that bring couples together and make it possible for them to enjoy extraordinary sex. This is not a sex manual; it is a book about achieving true intimacy--both in and out of the bedroom

Great sex is not dependent on being able to achieve contortionist positions or finding that elusive G-Spot; it is based, rather, on couples' becoming aware of those ineffable forces that originally brought them together--forces that may have been based on differences rather than similarities in style and personality, forces that now may be pulling these same people apart. Having achieved an understanding of these forces, they will be better able to communicate, achieve intimacy, and enjoy extraordinary sex. The first step toward understanding is self-awareness, and Dr. Scantling has devised a simple but accurate paradigm of the four basic personality Energizers, Stabilizers, Workers, and Pleasure-seekers. Through storytelling, anecdotes, and an easy-to-complete quiz, readers will learn to identify their own personalities and sexual styles--as well as those of their partners--and so to understand why they each behave as they do and--above all--how they can each modify their styles to achieve Extraordinary Sex Now.

This is an inspirational, must-have guide for any couple seeking to rekindle their passion. Dr. Scantling proves that lovemaking need never grow dull--that it can be an ongoing, joyous event, now and for the rest of our lives.

[Corey D Harrill]

I think Dr. Scantling does a great job teaching how to be more intimate in a committed relationship. Sure,some of it comes through age,time,and experience. However,I personally think intimacy should be nourished to continue to see our partner through new eyes. Bringing out each other's erotic souls is imperative.

It's difficult being raised a straight man seeing females continually objectified through the media. America culture has an indoctrination of pornography, social media,and a general lack of awareness on intimacy. Once I stumble across a long term love interest again I'm going to make sure to treat her with care. We all deserve deep intimacy.

I appreciate everything the therapist shares in this great read!
