Excerpt: Turn Me On, Turn Me Off
by Bella Pollen
"I can list not only a dozen turn-offs, but an astonishing number of perfectly decent boyfriends I cast aside because of them. Take, for example, the guitar player who, whenever he got out of bed in the morning would grasp his penis in one hand, pull it up, then begin scratching along its length all the way down to the scrotal sac before working round and round his balls in the methodical manner of a dog ridding itself of fleas."
