3.0 out of 5 stars
A serious sex education book, though cheaply produced., January 1, 1999
By A Customer
21 x 28 cm (approx A4 size), 48 pages. Black and white line drawings throughout, including cover. Staple binding. Contains 41 full-page line drawings of vulvas.The first thing that strikes me about this book is the lower quality printing and production of the book. Ok, it is designed (and priced) as a coloring-in book, but it's not a work of beauty. I think I would apprecitate the book having a better cover and binding, even if its contents are simply coloring-in pages. I guess the way it is makes it cheaper to buy multiple copies and ... color them in! The 41 pages of vulvas do not have any text on the page. There is a simple foreword and introduction in four languages at the start, plus one page showing the location of body parts within a vulva (again in four languages), but otherwise no text. To be honest, reading other people's comments about this book, I wonder whether they are talking about this book. "Offensive subtext"? Material of a "prurient nature"? A book of humor? Only in the sense that perhaps some people may not take a coloring in book of vulvas seriously. Anyway, this book is an interesting companion to Femalia, which contains actual photographs of vulvas. I'd rate this book higher if it were of higher quality.
