Excerpts

At our core, all we want is to be loved. Human beings are bonded by an intense nature to share this journey of life with the person who will love them unconditionally. People fall in love, feverishly plan a wedding and seal the deal with a ceremonial kiss but don't think about the most important part of the union—after the honeymoon. What comes after the kiss that links you to your spouse for better or worse? The answer—enduring selfless work. In an era of pop culture where media all but rejoices in less than one-hundred day unions of celebrities, it is easy to forget that marriage is a celebration of love and commitment. Marriage is a civil right in which all adult couples should be able to enter wholeheartedly. Most fail to realize that marriage is hard work! As love between two people deepens, the bond of marriage strengthens. Often times the satisfaction of wedded bliss begins to decline for various reasons. If you are starting to feel displeasure in your union, ask yourself this question—What am I doing to replenish the nutrients that make up my relationship? A partnership between two adults has to be nourished in order to thrive. Contrary to the title of the book, this collection of tips and writing focuses on several facets of two people in a relationship, other than the physical act of sex. The Best Workout is "Sex": A Gay Guide to Your Ideal Marriage magnifies what makes physical love between a couple so intense—emotional and mental connections. Think about it, you and your partner should be having some form of sex at all times that excludes the physical act. The intimate journey of learning to connect with your partner in love is the ultimate fuel for a successful marriage. In today's inclusive world it is imperative that both gay and straight couples alike are aware of certain guidelines to build toward a healthy relationship. After all, more and more same-sex couples are gaining the right to wed just like their heterosexual counterparts. It is our hope that this book will teach you reliable tips to enhance the connection with your soon to be spouse, husband or wife. Regardless of whom your heart belongs too, the focus here is the overarching theme of love and respect—two principles that we crave in humanity.
