Psst, did you hear the one about... * The explicit Twin Towers sex scene deleted from a 9/11 novel? * How circumcision hurts your sex life? * The world's largest erotic archive (287,000 movies!) that no one is allowed to see? * FAA reports about people screwing on commercial flights (the "mile high club")? * The frisky behavior of nuns and priests? * The photo of Jesus and the adulteress that Hustler wouldn't run? * The proof that sex and orgasms make you healthy? * The amazing powers of the vagina in history and mythology? * The unexpected sexiness of blood, chess, food, pimples, and bee stings? Nope, these aren't dirty jokes. They're for real, and they're part of Disinformation's unbridled look at the world of sex. Edited by Russ Kick, this massive anthology features a panoply of sexperts, everyone from prostitutes to professors, legends to newcomers, sexual revolutionaries to sexologists, bloggers to novelists and beyond. This unrivaled line-up provides a wildly varied, unexpected, and untamed look at everyone's favorite activity. Find out what it's like to work at a Nevada brothel and a Seattle peep show, host a fist-a-thon, hustle for drug money, answer phones at a sex-information hotline, visit Japan's sex museums, teach a senior citizen to be a stripper, and write copy for a huge catalog of porn videos and sex toys. Read what mom and dad never told you (or knew!) about group masturbation, anal and oral sex, wild porn, gender-blending, sex magick, eye-licking, LSD, biblical erotica, genital pet-names, and the "C" word. And there's even more: "Girls Gone Wild," men's hidden desires, anti-dildo laws, Viagra, responsible non-monogamy, necrophilia, Caligula, Buddha's sex life, breastfeeding, orgasmic chimps... the fun never ends in Everything You Know About Sex Is Wrong. * Susie Bright talks about sex during pregnancy and masturbation during delivery * Tristan Taormino visits a sex-toy factory * Carol Queen explains what you need to know about orgies * Salvador Dalí worships his favorite part of his wife's body * Patrick Califia examines life as a queer freak * David Steinberg sets the record straight on pioneering sexologist Alfred Kinsey * Rachel Kramer Bussel interviews masturbation guru Betty Dodson and sleeps with her boyfriend * Steve Almond (Candyfreak, My Life in Heavy Metal) tells you how to write hot sex scenes * Violet Blue exposes porn as sexual disinformation * Breyer P-Orridge issues a call to break gender * Prominent sexologist Vern Bullough reveals the long, strange history of condoms * Richard Zacks (An Underground Education) unearths forbidden sex acts of the Middle Ages * Tim Keefe (Some of My Best Friends Are Naked) gets the inside scoop from seven strippers * Journalist Jon Hart lays out the untold story of Plato's Retreat, New York's legendary swingers' club * Michelle Clifford (Metasex) takes us on a tour of the vanished adult theaters of Times Square and reviews the harsh movies they showed * Editor Russ Kick reads the forgotten sex books of muscleman Charles Atlas ("Hey, quit kicking sand in our faces, you bully!") * Erotic bibliographer Steven Gertz profiles the porn publisher who gave his name to the Supreme Court's infamous Miller standard of obscenity * Two sleaze-paperback legends-Earl Kemp and Victor J. Banis-reveal the tricks of the trade * Psychologist Jenny Wade, PhD breaks the silence on altered states of consciousness triggered by sex
