L’opera consta di 2318 termini più circa 900 sottotermini di pertinenza medica, psicologica, sociologica, gergale e di altre aree del sapere, tutti inerenti all’ambito sessuologico. Attraverso la scomposizione in diversi lemmi di tali rami di competenza si è voluto dare immediato accesso alle informazioni desiderate, presentate in forma autosufficiente e sintetica. Come il lettore potrà costatare, l’enciclopedia è ricca di termini in lingua anglosassone. Ciò è dovuto al fatto che, in primo luogo, l’inglese è la lingua con cui più comunemente parla internet e, secondariamente, pare evidente che gli anglosassoni, soprattutto gli statunitensi, siano stati capaci di sintetizzare con un solo lemma quasi tutte le pratiche sessuali (forse per la tendenza agglutinante del loro linguaggio), quando invece l’italiano risolve la descrizione delle medesime pratiche tramite una locuzione; in diversi casi, poi, l’italiano sembra mancare del tutto di termini specifici. Oltre a ciò, nella nostra lingua, molti termini relativi al sesso si frammentano in regionalismi molto diffusi in alcune zone ma mai uditi in altre; ciò ovviamente non permette una catalogazione sistematica. I termini inglesi riportati nel libro, invece, sono condivisi sia a livello nazionale sia internazionalmente. In ogni caso, prevedendo che non tutti i lettori italiani avessero dimestichezza con l’inglese o con altre lingue straniere citate, per ogni termine è stata offerta la traduzione italiana all’interno della definizione o nella sezione etimologica.
