The sex book circa 2007
The Tyee has a survey of some recent books on sexuality, and argues that after a recent explosion in raunch, the culture is pulling back a bit:
[I]f this year’s crop of “sexy” books is any guide, the backlash is now in full effect. Sure, Porn 2.0 is grabbing more viewers than ever. But with sex so commonplace, people, or at least publishers, are looking for what’s next.
This year’s sex-culture books feature virgins, men vacuuming and crafty sex toys. And, really, what’s less sexy than those?
We’ve noticed something similar with the online sale of toys, however it seems that things like Porn & Adult Content on the web is now becoming more acceptable.
