Insightful review from Adison Stray
“It's Not About The Sex” My Ass tells the fascinating story of a woman’s personal journey from mainline Mormon, to fundamentalist Mormon, to non-believer. This case is interesting in that most fundamentalists are born into these groups, while Joanne and her husband choose to join a fledgling cult. The heroine is a highly intelligent and rational woman, demonstrating that, under the right (or wrong) circumstances, we are all susceptible to cults and charismatic leaders. The book is extremely witty and insightful, and the authors make many self-effacing and poignant observations that highlight the hypocrisy and manipulation of these groups, and their considerable dangers. I highly recommend this book and think it’s a valuable and unique addition to the range of titles that exist about the LDS and their many sects. —Adison Stray
