Elle
Magazine’s 2007 IntELLEgentsia
Esther Perel was named one of Elle Magazine’s 2007
IntELLEgentsia (which also includes Vera Wang, Julia Stiles and Amy
Poehler).
"Makes fewer promises and raises thornier questions
than any other how-to-improve-your-relationship book you’ve
ever read, which is exactly why you should read this one…Writes
with worldliness and nuance and seems as comfortable drawing on Proust
as from Passionate Marriage author…”

Everyone
who works with couples knows it’s just as often the man who
withholds sex, or isn’t interested’
Q: You’re a couples’ therapist as well as an author. Who
usually pushes for counselling when a couple’s sex life is in
decline?
A: The person who longs for it most. Every therapist who works with
couples knows that it’s just as often the man who withholds
sex, or is no longer interested. In popular culture this is a female
issue, but that’s not what we see in our offices.

Let's
get it on
By Helaine Olen
Does marriage smother sex? Author Esther Perel talks about how to
unleash erotic desire inside long-term relationships.
Is it really possible to make marriage feel sexy? Esther Perel, a
New York couples and family therapist, argues that it is, but that
it involves nothing less than a rethinking of what matrimony has become
for most Americans, as well as a hard look at how we deal with the
competing roles of parent, worker and lover. In her new book, "Mating
in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic," she takes
aim at the modern conception of marriage as a mélange of the
romantic, the sexual, the economic and the companionate.

Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic
by Jesse Kornbluth
Two guys are sitting at the bar of a chic New York restaurant when
a woman of astonishing beauty enters. Conversation stops. Jaws drop.
Every man there is thinking the same thing --- except for one of the
men at the bar. “Somewhere,” he whispers to his friend,
“there's a guy who's sick of fucking her.”
And you know that's true. It's obvious: familiarity breeds contempt.
Especially if familiarity comes with a wedding ring attached. A book
about sex in marriage --- now there's a thin book!
But here comes Esther Perel to suggest that we --- men and women alike
--- have it wrong. Good sex doesn't have to end when the hormones
cool. Lust doesn't have to devolve into companionship. You can be
a mom and a sex kitten. And as for “intimacy”….in
the bedroom, a little goes a long way.

Lust
Life: Scheduling Sex
by Stephanie Sellars
I’ve never been a morning person, and sex is no exception.
If a rigid cock pokes me from behind sometime between 7 a.m. and
noon, my morning self usually perceives the gesture as an obnoxious
disruption to sleep—perchance a lovely dream, and the cantankerous
hag who nocturnally abducts my supple mind mutters something offensively
penis-deflating before sending the invader back to his side of the
bed with an elbow jab.

Good Intimacy
By Shani R. Freidman
Why read a new book about relationships and sex? Hasn’t it
all been said already? And doesn’t it usually get said in
a way that’s so obvious or oversimplified – not to mention
boring, patronizing, and just plain ridiculous – that you
might as well be trying to cull sexual insight from a stone? What
gets lost in the sea of selfhelp, however, is the occasional oasis
of insight and inspiration, a book like Esther Perel’s “ Mating
In Captivity: Reconciling The Erotic And The Dometic.”

More Silence on Sex and the New Mother
By kbaggott (Related entries in Emotional Wellbeing)
As you know, I avoid talking about sex, even though the question
on almost every new mother’s mind is when, or even if, she
will ever feel like doing the deed again. There are a lot of reasons
for a post partum mother to avoid sex. First, there is the prohibition
against doing it while the postpartum blood is still in evidence
due to fear of infection.

Hot for Hubby: The Carnival Reviews Esther Perel's Mating in Captivity
By Jessica Gold Haralson
"If you want to stop having sex, just get married," goes
that tired American chestnut. Our cultural dictates that the marital
bed might be intimate, cuddly, and comfy -- the sexual equivalent
of a teddy bear, perhaps -- but rarely ever hot. Hot is reserved
for the call girl, the college Spring Break fling, the emotionally-crazy-yet-passionate
ex-girlfriend before the search for stability.
