This is not an overtly sexual book - very few people could turn it into a tool for masturbation - but it gave me a sense of ease with my own body, even as an adult, that I know will be helpful to teens. Thanks for the reminder - I don't own a copy and I think I'd like to.

Once you take people's clothes off, they're just people, regardless of their career or their age.

But it still sounds amazing--I'd like to see it.
