Okay, before anyone goes making judgements, this book is not about having sex persay...it's more of a textbook on sex. It has soooo many facts about the subject. It's very, very informative and it has these really cool little tidbits of fun facts throughout the whole book. Every couple of months I love flipping through this book and laughing and learning about a subject everyone can relate to.

My friend let me borrow this book. It's just lots of crazy facts about sex through the ages. Kind of gross things sometimes. I had a hard time falling asleep one night I read it. So gross. Most of the things I read I wish I didn't know. People are sick. I honestly can't believe some of the things people have come up with. I skipped through some of it b/c it was getting too gross for me.
The author provides a little information about a lot of topics, but never delves deeply into anything.
Speaking of gross things, my baby is on my lap pooping like there's no tomorrow.

The name of the book speaks for itself. It is more of an educational book that shows random facts about sex. Some interesting. Some kind of humorous. And some that were kind of repulsive. It is a short yet enjoyable read.
