Annie Sprinkle, Queen of Kink, artist, author, sex pioneer
Katharine Gates is the smartest/sexiest/bestest/freshest/coolest/funniest sex researcher in the universe. This book is brilliant, thoroughly entertaining, and super-outrageous. Finally someone has done something sexually-oriented that is truly original. I dare you to read it and not get turned on!
Book Description
DEVIANT DESIRES is a lavishly illustrated guide to the most fascinating and obscure outposts of the erotic frontier. Self-described pervert Katharine Gates takes us on an expedition into the latest sexual communities bursting forth at the beginning of the new millennium. Gone are the pretentious black-clad S/M posers and humorless fetish fashion victimsyoull meet the refreshingly funny and irreverent heroes and heroines of a do-it-yourself porn revolution.
Spurred on by the internet explosion, these deviants defy all expectations as they actively participate in creating their own erotic entertainment, forging new art, original literature and fluid sexual identities. Come grab a first peek as they radically subvert mass culture for their own nefarious sexual purposes. Nothing is sacred and anything can be sexualized, from Disney characters and B-Movie monsters to baked beans, childrens birthday balloons and Thanksgiving dinner. Youll never watch TV the same way again!
