Female Survey

This totally anonymous survey asks 30 or so questions about sex. It's the longest survey I've ever put together and I apologize for that. Your answers are helpful to me and I hope you will find it interesting. Your email address is automatically blocked, so I can't tell who sent it unless you enter it at the end in the comments/suggestions box.

Feel free to skip any questions that you'd rather not answer. Some of your answers might be used anonymously in the next edition of The Guide, on this website, or in another book I write on sex. If so, the only identifying data I would include would be your age and sex.

Your answers aren't sent until you hit the SUBMIT button at the bottom of the page. Thanks so very much for your time and help!
