You know that "Joy of Sex" book with how to drawings. Supposed to be of some help, but is it crossing the line?

Are we talking basic line drawings, simple, to-the-point?  Or are we talking sweaty oiled-up porn stars in full color posing in ridiculously gymnastic positions?

I've seen example positions illustrated by those little jointed wooden figures that artists use to learn their human figure drawing.  That's not exactly titillating either.

 Yuck it is still in print. I looked at it before marriage as a college kid. I am still disturbed by the homosexual, little people part.

They are sketches made out like real people. The drawings are more educational than erotic, but still nude and graphic.

True, but the book did sell very well for some reason. Maybe most folks are not that creative.

Lets face it, most people are not that creative is a massive understatement.  The stark reality is that most men have focused slam, bam, thank you maam attitude and a similar number of women are afraid of being judged against thier peers when they bring all the verve of a cold fish to the bedroom.

Statistics over decades don't lie.  And they tell us our children start too young, have little repitoir, and feel to some degree unfulfilled by thier partners.  So the book fills a need, but there must be a better way because I read the book and frankly, it sucked.  Even in the seventies.

May I ask why you need all the enticement you describe since you don't seem to mind in going into detail? Does it do anything for you? Do you consider adultery a sin? Perhaps a Viagra pill would be better for you.

Viagra is not a good idea. All those pills (Cialis, Viagra, etc.) have a half-life so when you are done with your business the pill can work at an inoportune time.

This means a physical reaction from the pill at a time other than sex with your spouse. IOW, you get to fight lustful thoughts like you did at age 14,15,16 years of age before the half life wears off if the moment arises.
