interesting and light

I have to admit I didn't read all of the book, I just flipped through and read anything that interested me, and that took me less than 20 minutes total. Childish terminoogy such as "male pleasure unit" in which the author was trying to talk in robot/computer lingo is highly annoying, especially for the older (non-teenage) reader. But all in all it does have a lot of information in it in a light format that is not difficult to read. It's formatted in a way that you could easily flip to a page you need as a reference, and the illustrations are actually pretty helpful and even smartly humorous most of the time.

Was the author a 13-year-old boy?
15 Feb 2010
There's a lot of good information here, but the presentation is undermined by an author who seems determined to get in as much unsavory, unpleasant information into the book as possible. There are no fewer that three sections on venereal diseases, detailed descriptions of outre sexual practices like the "golden showers," as well as countless revolting references to obscure diseases of the male genitalia. Also, there is an overabundance of slang ("jimmy hats," "going down the Hershey highway, numerous references to a "strapadictomy") that serve to sabotage the seriousness of the endeavor. Much of the parenthetical material seems repetitive and/or inane--do I really need to know that diaphragm is also called a "phragmie"? There's a good book buried in here somewhere, but a stronger editorial hand was needed.
