“In the Trobriand Islands a man’s virility is judged by the size of the yams he grows.”
There’s a lot to enjoy in this fascinating collection of facts and folktales about love and sex from over 100 countries. The author, a journalist and seasoned world traveler, shares her cross-cultural findings on fetishes, mating rituals, aphrodisiacs, eroticized body parts and a variety of intriguing sexual customs. Not a serious
anthropological work, but fast-moving and fun-to-read, with some very unusual photographs.
