oof this has not aged well. to me it felt like being force-fed an entire chocolate cake–I like to flip through a Cosmopolitan magazine now and again but this was just...........too much, and a lot of it is very....bad (homophobic/biphobic, gender essentialist, fat shamey, classist...etc...)

there's like 10% of still-good advice buried in here but mostly gross. (and I acknowledge that HGB and Cosmopolitan were important to second-wave feminism and there's some value to her acknowledging lady horniness but that doesn't mean this book is readable in 2018.)
