The Hite Report radically re-defined the world's understanding of female sexual experience and it remains to this day essential reading for women of all ages and backgrounds.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A reproduction of the classic text, unavailable now for more than a decade, with a new introduction by the author. The Hite Report, first published in 1976, was a sexual revolution in six hundred pages. To answer sensitive questions dealing with the most intimate details of women's sexuality, Hite's innovation was simple- she asked women, a lot of them, everything--and published the results.One hundred thousand women, ages fourteen to seventy-eight, were asked what they do and don't like about sex; how orgasm really feels, with and without intercourse; how it feels not to have an orgasm during sex; the importance of clitoral stimulation and masturbation; and to name the greatest pleasures and frustrations of their sexual lives, among many other questions.The Hite Report declares that orgasm is easy and strong for women, given the right stimulation; that most women have orgasm most easily during masturbation or clitoral stimulation by hand; that sex as we define it is a cultural institution, not a biological one; and that attitudes must change to include the stimulation women desire. To answer sensitive questions dealing with the most intimate details of women's sexuality, Hite's innovation was simple; she asked women, a lot of them, everything - and published the results.
