In Prase of Nina Hartley's Sex Guides   "Most people in this country are not going to have as much sex as I've had in my life. Yet everyone wants to have a better sex life," Nina Hartley explains. "You can watch my tapes and learn more without having to actually go and do any of it." Nina Hartley is the queen of DVD sex guides.  Why is this former pornstar so good at educating us on sex?

 While she is experienced and knowledgeable I believe her most endearing quality is her sweet disposition. With a charming lisp, she explains how to lick a penis or entice a clitoris with enthusiasm for the subject, knowledge of the most important facts and a gentleness that makes you think she would be proud of you if you fell flat on your face in the middle of your blowjob. And she herself, not some talking head in a suit, shows you how its done. It doesn't hurt that she keeps her body toned and sexy well into her 50's.

Beginning in 1994 with Nina Hartley's Advanced Guide to Oral Sex, Nina has produced almost twenty. The DVDs combine instruction, demonstration, and inspiration in a three-part format; the last scene in each feature is the icing on the cake, with "no talking, all action." Each tape features high production values, and the kind of insight that only a lifetime devoted to sex can impart. The result is both informative and sexy, a rare mix.

For even more specifics on the topic of oral sex Nina dives right into cunnilingus on foreplay, and blow jobs in Nina Hartley's Guide to Better Fellatio. Here she also discusses advanced techniques. She also covered everything from bondage, to spanking, to private dancing. This woman is a one stop shop when it comes to sexual technique education. Sounds like you have some work to do.
