Collecting Sex

Amorous Scholarship

From a review of Sex Collectors. The Secret World of Consumers, Connoisseurs, Curators, Creators, Dealers, Bibliographers, and Accumulators of “Erotica” by Geoff Nicholson:

… Nicholson’s collectors just, well, collect. They purchase, they store. Sometimes they catalog. Once in a while, they go crazy and actually display something. But since they’re not themselves having sex here or inventing anything sexual or even talking about sex or art or media in especially insightful ways, they don’t cohere into anything but a collection of their own - a point Nicholson himself concedes, ruefully, in the book’s final chapters.

Sex Collectors

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Collecting Sex. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
