Real Sex: Titillating but True Tales Bizarre Fetishes Strange Compulsions Just Plain Weird
The latest humorous compilation from the off-beat and whimsical news junkies who created the Dumb, Dumber, Dumbest books John J. Kohut and Roland Sweet are masters of the strange news beat. This time, in Real Sex, they have used their talents to uncover difficult to believe tales of sexual misbehavior-from bizarre sexual fetishes and the legislation that governs them to outrageous courting rituals and daring bedroom antics. For example: A Georgia man, dubbed "the Crisco Kid," is arrested for hurling chunks of lard at attractive women while driving around nude. A San Diego woman, sexually stimulated by fire, is charged with twenty-five counts of arson. A Pennsylvania machinist is injured during a lunch-time quickie with a canvas drive belt. The Netherlands Association for Sexual Reform urges the government to issue larger condoms to accommodate growing Dutch men. These are just a few of the true stories collected for Real Sex straight from news headlines worldwide. From the notorious Denver flasher who clads himself only in diapers and wire-rim spectacles to the prisoner who lobbied for a blow-up doll to be allowed in his jail cell, Kohut and Sweet have gathered the strangest and most outlandish tales around. The result is a revealing and hilarious look at sex and human behavior-in all its manifestations..

Master Breasts: Objectified, Aesthetisized, Fantasized, Eroticized, Feminized by Photography's Most Titillating Masters . . .
The most revealing look at breasts Photographs of breasts are everywhere: in museums, on book covers, in fashion ads, and on posters Alluring symbols of womanhood, breasts have fascinated generations of image makers. Here, for the first time between two covers, is the breast in photography: the titillating breast, the maternal breast, the aging breast, and the symbolic breast. In Master Breasts, darkly witty political images of the 1970s jostle for space with Edward Weston's classic nudes; Nan Goldin's friends share pages with Robert Mapplethorpe's gorgeously sculptured models. From Alfred Stieglitz's classic studies of Georgia O'Keeffe to Mary Ellen Mark's vivid documentary portraits, they are all here. Other artists include Cindy Sherman, Imogen Cunningham, and Sally Mann. A witty and reflective Introduction from the acclaimed novelist and essayist Francine Prose further links the images, while a monologue from Karen Finley's recent performance piece American Chestnut, "The Detective," reveals a young girl's anguish about breast-inspired catcalls and jokes and then sardonically calls for similar cultural treatment of the male anatomy. Finally, in Nobel Prize-winner Dario Fo's radically funny play The Story of the Tiger, the benefits of breast-feeding are celebrated as never before. .
