"The sexual landscape has changed for women. A generation ago, it was rare to see an older woman with a younger man, a forty-five year old mother with a new baby, lesbians were mostly firmly in the closet and pornography was strictly for men. While some things never change, like the universal need for love, affection and connectedness, the way we go about getting what we want has. Based on responses to a survey Sex lives of Australian women explores the sexuality of modern women, the new rules, routines and expectations that have evolved, the disappointments and achievements, along with the dramatic changes in the way we live. How have culture and society, medicine and technology affected female sexuality? With wit and empathy, Sauers gives women a way to express their darkest secrets and most deeply felt emotions, thus helping both women and men understand who we are, where we are, and where we want to go from here."--Provided by publisher.
