Century036.Sex41

Best things about this cover:
  • "Frank"!
  • Yes, if you are going to masturbate, by all means, do it behind a curtain of silence. I'm trying to work over here!
  • Puzzled by the little logo in the "O" (nice!). Is the real title "Sex For One Pouty-Lipped Woman"?

Century036bc.Sex41

Best things about this back cover:
  • Oh, I'm sorry, *Dr.* Harvey T. Leathem.
  • "... during his years of practice" is the best adverbial phrase ever. "I've been jacking off for years, and let me tell you..."
  • Does he also discuss his hyphen fetish?
  • I love the ALL-CAPS ORANGE QUOTE FROM NO ONE
  • I'm sorry, what's Hugh Jones's role in all this again?

Page 123~
"You see, I had the cycle situated next to an old couch. As soon as the orgasm grabbed me, I'd fall off my bike onto the couch (1). Oh, incidentally—I'd have put a wild record on the phonograph that was kept down there, something with a big rock-'n'-roll beat. This not only further stimulated me, but it drowned out some of the wild laughing (2) that I enjoyed doing, during the moments that the climax had me in its vise" (3).
  1. Oh, that old trick.
  2. "Honey, what's going on in the basement? Is there supposed to be wild laughing in 'Daydream Believer'?"
  3. Wow, her orgasm is a harsh mistress. Grabbing her ... putting her in a vise ... but she's laughing, so I guess it's cool.
