Product Description

Prepare to enter a fantasy world. A world where clothes get folded just so, delicious dinners await, and flatulence is just not that funny. Give the fairer sex what they really want beautiful PG photos of hunky men cooking, listening, asking for directions, accompanied by steamy captions: 'I love a clean house!' or 'As long as I have two legs to walk on, you'll never take out the trash.' Now this is porn that will leave women begging for more!

About the Author

The Cambridge Women's Pornography Cooperative asked women, young, old, rich, and poor, "What really, really gets you hot?" Armed with their findings, they worked day and night to create Porn for Women.

Susan Anderson is a Los Angeles-based photographer who believes the future of porn shouldn't be in the hands of men alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars it's a joke, May 9, 2007

By	Patricia R. Andersen "redheaded booklover" (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

It's a joke, folks, it's supposed to be enjoyable. It's not earthshaking or revealing, just some good looking guys doing housework, that sort of thing. If you're offended or feel it sets women back a zillion years, oh well, it sucks to be you. Just don't buy it or act highly offended if somebody passes a copy around.
I intend to buy a few copies* of this book and give them as gifts. It makes me laugh. I think of "That '70s Show" when they were showing the various characters' fantasies. The main mom, Kitty, is laying on the sofa, saying "Oh, right there, Red, oh" and the camera pulls back and you see Red, her character's husband, dusting a tall lamp. It was funny, because it was silly. SO buy it if you think you can take the joke, avoid it if you're easily offended.

*FYI I don't get a kickback from the publishers for recommending this book and I have absolutely nothing to do with the group that put it together. (That was suggested of one of the reviewers) If they wanted to give me a kickback, I'd probably accept. Or not. Depends on what the offer was.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who me? Love Porn? HECK YEAH!, April 1, 2007

By	Kimberly E. Phillips "Book Lover" (Union County, NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

No seriously, I'm your typical, white-bread American woman. 5 foot 4 inches tall, 140 pounds, blonde hair, blue eyes, special education therapist...
This book is hysterical. I couldn't wait to share it with the girls at work. It's full of hunky guys (beefcake?) doing their share around the house with a smile. It would make a great bridal shower gift or birthday present for a friend.
Or better yet, if you're a guy, buy it for your girlfriend/wife and show them that you know the score. :)
My only complaint is that it was so short. I would have loved to have more chuckles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, April 24, 2007

By	J. Seaton "ilovebooks" (singapore) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Whoever said this book is lame and sexist needs to have their head examined. Sexist? I'm a 42 year mother of two, former journalist and an 'independent woman'. I found the book hysterical and right on. It's funny, but true. All my friends are passing it around, and our husbands like it even better. It's a great laugh. It's also PG, so one can give it to almost anyone as a gift. I'm giving it to just about everyone on my list!
