    Summary note
    "At first glance the sexual male seems easy to understand, but beneath the surface lie complexities that disrupt lives and relationships. Do men really want only one thing? Why can men be so distant in bed? Why do many men love porn - on - and offline - so much? And can men love porn and still love their wives?" "Noted psychologist Michael Bader's answers to these questions are surprising, even radical. The secret dynamics behind sexual boredom, internet sex, and sexual fantasies - issues that can leave women bewildered and men ashamed - lie in deep reservoirs of guilt, loneliness, and insecurity that plague men in our culture. Filled with engaging case studies from Dr. Bader's years of clinical practice. Male Sexuality gives readers - both women and men - a deeper understanding of male behavior, from the flamboyant to the mundane. Through increased awareness of the psychology behind the sex, Dr. Bader aims to enhance individual self-esteem and improve communication in relationships."--BOOK JACKET.
