Eberhard Kronhausen
Eberhard Kronhausen is name-checked on the cover of "Freak Out!" (1966) under the heading "These People Have Contributed Materially In Many Ways To Make Our Music What It Is. Please Do Not Hold It Against Them".
In 1964, the year the film "Sex and the Single Girl" was released (Natalie Wood, Tony Curtis, Lauren Bacall, Henry Fonda, Mel Ferrer, directed by Richard Quine), Drs. Phyllis C. (1929) and Eberhard W. (1915) Kronhausen wrote in their best seller, "The Sexually Responsive Woman" (New York, Grove Press, preface by Simone de Beauvoir).
- "Woman (is) the untouchable saint who through her spiritual purity raises and ennobles the grosser, baser male".
- "What modern women seem to want is not just more sex, but better sex. Together with increased aggressiveness in mature women, there appears to be a trend toward demanding, and if necessary, seeking, better sexual performance from male partners".
- "One should not... be surprised to hear that failure to achieve sexual happiness is likely to have an adverse effect on the woman’s total relationship with her partner and may lead to the breakdown of their relationship".
Drs. Eberhard and Phyllis Kronhausen have long worked as a professional team in their unique brand of holistic psychotherapy, which includes nutritional, spiritual and lifestyle counseling.
He was also an art critic and filmmaker, most of whose works concern erotic art.
Hustler magazine, July 1978, holds an article by the Kronhausens: "Genesis - The Fall From Innocence".
