Here’s a great article (link below) on the book “The Joy of Sex,” which is getting updated for the 21st century (and women).
It’s really interesting to think of the world that gave birth to the book compared to the world we live in now. The old book is full of interesting stuff, but feels quite anachronistic, both in style and attitude. An update is indeed due.
In so many ways, I aso think a book like this is still needed to loosen up the tensions that still exist when talking, thinking, and having sex. Folks are still so stuck up.
Looking forward to the new edition.

WHAT WAS THE most influential book of the 20th century? Perhaps you’d vote for “Relativity,” by Albert Einstein. But for my money, the book that blew the lid off the century could only be “The Joy of Sex.”
