Book Reviews of The New Joy of Sex and More Joy of Sex
Book Review: a start for beginners
Summary: 2 Stars
As a "30 something", this book has nothing new in it for me. It is tamer than my sex-ed class in high-school but may be good for teens (or anyone) getting ready for their first time. Not that I would recommend buying it for your kid because there are some really backward, outdated views. Kudos for covering safe-sex and the reality of AIDS, but not enough explanation of other STDs. Undertones of racism and homophobia, and suggestion to use hairy armpit odor as an aphrodisiac leave me uninterested in reading the whole book.
