S3 E5 Unzipped! Collins, ‘The Stud’ (1969)

This is a silly rather than sexy book. Why on earth was such a trashy, ridiculous banned when the censor ignored sex in serious literature?

S2 E6: Love, not Sex: Wallace, ‘The Chapman Report’ (1960)

America was horrified when the Kinsey report showed women were capable of sexual misbehaviour. Wallace’s book trashed Kinsey but it still too sexy for the Irish censor.

Pretty sexy cover….
