Talk:The Guide to Getting it On

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have been searching for a book that has all the answers to all the questions I have ever had about sex. Just when I thought that was going to be impposible, I found this book. It makes all of your questions seem normal, and in fact will probably make you blush. I found it of great use for my husband and I to "break the ice" in almost any "new" situation sexually. If there is a better book out there, I don't know what it is. It even describes things pictorally that you may have wondered how to imagine, with only a verbal explanation. A perfect source for the young and unsuspecting.

[edit] LIBERAL

I am a pretty conservative guy, and I think calling this guide liberal is not quite correct. Non-judgemental might be a better way to phrase it. The Gudie does not promote any sexual behavior, it just explains them all. In e-mail exchanges I have had with the author he has seemed very understanding of all views and niether promotes nor condones any sexual behaviors, monogamy, abstinance, or homosexuality.

[edit] Website

Should the guides website, www.goofyfootpress.com be included. The newest edition, release July 31, 2006, references it frequently as a place to stay up to date.

[edit] Old Editions

I recently bought this book, but I could have sworn that there was a chapter in an earlier print run about the laws on sexual behaviour. Does anybody have an older version to compare it to? Sweetfreek 07:50, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:GuideToGettingItOnCoverFifthEdition.jpg

Image:GuideToGettingItOnCoverFifthEdition.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Examples of What?

One gets the impression from the citations in "Examples" that the book panders to an audience who appreciate jingoism above substance. Quoting some amorphous group of women lawyers as evidence of overall female behavior is not a random sample. The idea that God "lets" Christians die of some cause or another is hardly startling. Do these quotations truly represent the worth of the book? 24.6.66.149 (talk) 11:36, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
