Gail Elizabeth Wyatt

Excellent manual for minority women!

Dr. Wyatt writes an amazing book that not only describes the findings of her surveys and case studies, but also relates the information from her own personal perspective as a black woman. Using hundreds of conversations with real black women, Wyatt presents pictures of both successful women and women who are still in crisis. She takes factual surveys and compares black women and white women in order to debunk stereotypes.
Along with her factual information, Wyatt uses her expertise as a psychologist to offer ways in which black women can improve their lives and the lives of their children. I especially liked the way she encourages women of color to educate themselves and their children.

With chapters devoted to "sex secrets" like "you don't have to fake it if your relationship is real," the Wyatts dispense much reassuring and forthright advice that should be especially welcomed by those readers who want to reconcile their sexual needs with their religious beliefs.… (plus d'informations)
