The Lover's Guide - Satisfaction Guaranteed

I rate this 4* because although not cringey it is explicit. However-anyone who wants to have better sex, more orgasms and a stronger relationship should watch it :-)


Love this lovers guide!   February 15, 2005

Having never seen one of this series before I wasn't sure what to expect - but I loved this Lovers Guide - it's got a really modern, sexy but approachable feel. The content is good too - and relevant if you're single or in a couple - it's not just about sex itself but the whole package of getting together, getting down to it and getting on with someone. Tracey Cox is great - you feel like you trust her advice. I do agree with the other reviewers there are a couple of really explicit moments - but I think overall this is 5 stars - it really made me think differently, and gave me confidence to try stuff with my boyfriend I wouldn't otherwise have done (he may be writing his own review!!)


Informative but aggressive entry in this long-running series   February 10, 2005

The Guide has come a long way since the cosy days of the doctor talking to the camera and the intimate lovemaking of the couples in warm-hued domestic settings. This time, it is the life-coach who is the authority figure, doling out the advice in a brusque, no-nonsense manner that some may welcome but others will find aggressive and repellent.

The sex scenes now are distinguishable from hardcore porn only by the steady camera work and, by comparison, modicum of subtlety, although the level of explicitness is still highly graphic. The tone is still one of informative demonstration, all to the good, but the combative nature of the presenter and the change to a woman-centred presentation where men seem to get a good deal of blame thrust upon them for lack of female satisfaction, is an unwelcome departure from the more neutral manner of the doctor. At one point she even says, 'If this is a problem for either of you, just deal with it...ok'.

I advise spending your money on one of the earliest, classic entries (no pun) in this series, or else watch this one with the sound down.

All in all this DVD was incredibly useful and informative. It contains all the key aspects to improving one's love life as well as nutritional and self esteem advice. I found the information easy to understand and included advice on the emotional aspects of love making. I would definately recommend renting/buying this DVD as it is a sure way to improve your love life and leave a deep lasting impact and many interesting ideas to think over and practice.


Nice, but not exactly staggering   February 25, 2005

I guess this is for long term couples where one person is need of subtley suggesting to their loved one, the basics of loving, nothing beyond taking care and attention of one's loved one and enjoying it. There are 'seven steps to success'. It did help to remind one to love and enjoy oneself first then share that with another, but otherwise it was not exactly pushing the bounds of the imagination. A sightly erotic let down.....
