The Odd Sex: mysteries of our weird and wonderful sex lives explained

Description

When it comes to sources of sexual arousal, most of us are fairly "normal". However, those with a paraphilia have sexual tastes that are far from ordinary. This book may well shock you, disgust you, and make you doubt that anyone could "really be into that". But someone, somewhere, is. This fourth title in the "Odd Book" series uncovers some very strange predilictions. Do you know someone who has Statuophilia (they get their kicks from mannequins and statues)? Or Siderodromophilia, people with a thing about trains? This book illustrates the infinite diversities of our fellow humans as it uncovers the bizarre world of more unusual sexual tastes.
