«El informe Hite» is Shere Hite's essay on female sexuality, published by Plaza & Janés in hardback (491 pages, in Spanish).
Based on the responses of 3,000 women aged 14 to 78, it gathers their sexual experiences: likes and dislikes, orgasm with and without intercourse, how they feel if they don't reach it, the role of the clitoris and masturbation, and their greatest pleasures and frustrations. Shere Hite proposes a new cultural interpretation of female sexuality.
The edition includes appendices (pp. 443-486) and bibliography (pp. 487-491). Translated from the English by Jaime Tomás.
A work of interest to readers of gender studies and sociology, and to those wishing to discover a classic in the popularisation of female sexuality.
Shere Hite was an American-born German sex educator and feminist. Her sexological work focused primarily on female sexuality.

She also referenced theoretical, political and psychological works associated with the feminist movement of the 1970s, such as Anne Koedt's essay "The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm". She renounced her United States citizenship in 1995 to become German.
