Reviewed by Endorphin  on  6/21/2001

Starring: Nina Hartley, Tina Tyler, Jewel Valmont, Ian Daniels, Chris Cannon

Pros: educational porn, candles, massage, feather

Cons: would have liked to have seen more of Jewel, no features

Educational porn is good! This DVD teeters on being educational and at the same time being a porn. The end result is that it ends up being quite opposite from any porn I have seen. Nina talks about and does this thing called 'foreplay'. And later on, this one scene does not end right after the guy cums. You would never believe it. Nina actually asks for another orgasm after the guy cums (I thought that was called nap-time). What was with all those candles and stuff anyways? Do you buy those things in a sex toy shop or something like that? Where was the facial?

So what did I learn from this educational porn. Well, women are different than men, they "blah blah blah" (women stuff). Seriously though, this DVD is more about informing men about how women approach and feel about sex in general. And it emphasizes that it is important to try to understand what the individual woman wants at that particular moment in time. Women are different from men, women are different from each other, and what they want today is not always what they want tomorrow. Unless of course you narrow it down to the simple desire to be found attractive and be appreciated for their uniqueness. Despite having read The Tao of Sex, Tantric Sex, the Kama Sutra and other sex books (I know about Jade Sticks and Jade Gates and all that stuff) I did feel that I came away from this DVD with some new and valuable knowledge and of course the strong desire to put that knowledge to work. However, do not expect this DVD to be a cookbook of sexual positions. You will not learn how to Crouch the Tiger with the Hidden Dragon. You will however cum away with something valuable (and you'll get to laugh at the pussy pillow). You will learn once again that communication is important. There is even beneficial information for women. Nina mentioned that for an evening of ecstasy women should ride the Endorphin Machine. Ok! you didn't buy that one, but she did mention that she did not understand why men did not instantly know what she wanted until she had her first experience with a woman and found that she wanted feedback. Once again communication is important.

Shelf life: A keeper.

Bottom line: This is a good DVD because it is educational. I think it could have been better by being a little more focused on topics and having chapter stops for the different topics. But, it is still informative and a fine contribution to any shelf (you may even put it with your mainstream collection instead of hidden in some box under the bed).
