I’ve actually tried looking for the book in local bookstores but till now I have yet to see one that sells this book. So as a good human being as I’ve always been *laugh* I’m putting here the back cover of the book.

Sex-Ploytation might just seems like an innocent title for a book but wait till you see the sub-title for the book *chuckle*. The complete title for the book is actually; Sex-Ploytation: How women use their bodies to extort money from men.

Just by the title I bet many women are getting mad already. Maybe it’s a psychology thingy from the author to get more people to buy the book but honestly I do think the title did do justice to the content of the book, nothing less.

Actually I don’t really mind typing out the whole book if it wasn’t for the copyright. If you guys really want the book, maybe try pushing MPH or Times or Kinokuniya and perhaps if there’s enough demand they might just take up the deal and distribute it here in Malaysia. Just as important as sex education for kids/teenagers today, this book is no less important to all men and women.

I think I’ve said it earlier that the main focus of this book is actually more on American women so some of the things said might not apply to Malaysian women (not yet at least) but in general it applies.

Now I have to go read the book again… hehe. And I really agree with this particular sentence from the book, “… a society controlled, of course, by women”. I can’t stress any harder how much sense this book make. I am not being one sided but this fella (the author) really puts things into perspective.

I saw David Letterman yesterday, and there was this guest from Canada. An old lady name Sue Johansson who hosts a talk show call “Sex Talk” teaching kids/teenagers about sex (safe sex that is).

David was talking about his “misery” when he was young that he could hardly score with girls and stuffs like that and then he ask that how different it is now that it used to be (regarding sex). And Sue said that it had been different because girls these days are more liberated. Kids are having sex at the age of 12 or even younger. One of the main reasons is the media and pornography. But that’s not the main point I am trying to make here although I really do believe that sex education is IMPORANT in this country. Our stupid government has been talking about sex education in schools and till now there’s not even a word on it. Give me a column in the national newspapers with no censorship and I’ll make this country “tremble” hehe ;)

Back to David Letterman, David said that back in those days, men believe that only men love sex and women do not love sex. Men were made to believe that girls are not interested in sex and that men are the only species who can’t stop thinking about sex. And Sue’s reply to this is really GOOD, “men had been fooled all these years”.

Sue said that all this was because of “our mothers” that say good girls don’t do this, good girls don’t like sex, good girls don’t have sex (pre-marital) and good girls don’t do many more things (you get the deal).

And even the term “slut” is subjective. David asked about “being slutty” and Sue asked back, define a slut? Sleep with you one the first date or sleep with you one the 21st date?

And the ultimate question was “can a wonderful girl be slutty?” The answer, absolutely yes. Nice girl can be slutty, what’s wrong with that? The important things is, be true to yourself, practice safe sex, be confidence and acknowledge that we all are indeed sexual beings (paraphrased from what Sue Johansson said).

A friend once said this to me, “If 2 people want to have fun and do it safely, then why not?” [the exact same person who corrupted my “innocent” mind *chuckle* but is a wonderful girl :)]

What Sue Johansson and David Letterman talked about on yesterday’s show actually complements what the book has to say (on the surface at least). I actually feel sad that they don’t sell this book here. There are a lot of guys who could really use some “reality check” from reading this book. Well, guess you just can’t help everyone *grin*
