Anyone else other than my wife intending to buy this? From the very interesting (and hot) actress of X Files, Sex Education and more...

From the Amazon listing:

Want: Sexual Fantasies by Anonymous
by Gillian Anderson (Author)

A collection of confessions from women around the world, Want is a revelatory, sensational and game-changing exploration of women’s sexuality that asks, and answers: How do women feel about sex when they have the freedom to be totally anonymous?

What do you want, when no one is watching?
What do you want, when the lights are off?
What do you want, when you are anonymous?

When we talk about sex, we talk about womanhood and motherhood, infidelity and exploitation, consent and respect, fairness and egalitarianism, love and hate, pleasure and pain.
 
Though it sounds interesting, but I suspect those fantasies would not be as "hot" as fantasies of Lit people. To hard to publish our fantasies. So I'll wait until someone else reads and says otherwise
I take your point, but I strongly suspect that the female authors here at Literoitca write to excite and entertain an audience - and their audience is overwhelmingly male. ..That's a different objective than writing to convey their own fantasies to another woman. ..We'll see. ..But I'm hopeful. I give her huge kudos for doing it.

Does she talk about how Fox Mulder was sliding all up in that pussy?
 
I’m reading it now and it’s terrific. Everything has been properly edited so it’s easier to read than most of the stuff here on literotica. Really varied and imaginative. And, sorry to disappoint a lot of us guys, but it seems women don’t really fantasise about fucking their sons.
Thank you for the feedback. Not sure I'd get a fair review from Amazon.
 
I'm reading it, I find it fascinating. Some are hot, some aren't my thing, but it is an interesting window into the fantastical mind!

You'd be surprised. This has been done before, My Secret Garden by Nancy Friday covered the same ground and womens fantasies are just as wild as men, from the simple stranger with rippling muscles kind of thing through to rape and bestiality.
 
On another thread somewhere, I in turn had read that many, many men squeal "Mother!" when they do the squirt thang. I mean, seriously? They think about her at a time like that?

Perhaps it's short for "Mother of God!"? That might be worse, actually. Jesus. And Joseph too.

Or is it short for "Motherfuck(er)!" Again, it's rather yucky.


So, ladies, do you scream "Father!", by any chance? Not one, right?
 
Makes you wonder why the need for another - apart from a celebrity cashing in on her name after playing a fictitious sex therapist.
People often bring out more up to date versions of older things. People's tastes change a little, and with her position of celebrity, it likely opens the discussion up to a wider audience, which can only be helpful. It is simply a collection of letters, with a little explanation here and there

Eh, that’s a rather cynical outlook. It could be that in researching the role she became interested in the subject. Or that because she has a name she could do it, whereas it may have been more difficult for an unknown person to have published the exact same book.

Call me old-fashioned, but "Fuck!" or "Fuck, yeah"! always seems so much more appropriate. Or a bit of incoherent growling and groaning. Not necessarily at the same time, kind of separate. If you can growl and groan at the same time, that is. Is that allowed?
 
I saw something about this book. It sounded not that interesting. There were some well known books with that theme by Nancy Friday many years back. Anderson's didn't sound like it added much.

I'm so undisappointed to hear that. And it's a little hairy, too, the whole thing:

A woman whose identity I can't reveal, but we'll call her Jocasta for the sake of argument, hanged herself over all this.

And her son went blind, eek, so it might be true what the priests all told us about the effects of masturbation. I mean the effects on us, not on them, naturally, although there are exceptions. I'll stop here.

There's lots of decent erotica written by women here on Lit.

That's a different objective than writing to convey their own fantasies to another woman.

I forgot women are a hive mind. The same things turn us all on in the exactly the same every time. And no fantasy could turn on a man or a woman equally.

Have you read it? Is it well written? You're making me look for this secret garden book. I might get away by saying it's for gardening if husband asks lol
 
Working my way through it now. Not a lot of surprising stuff, but overall an OK book. Gives a good overview of what some women fantasize about, covering a wide variety of places around the globe.

In general there seems to be some repetitive themes, which again isn't surprising.
