Overview
Condoms and Hot Tubs Don’t Mix: An Anthology of Awkward Sexcapades by Jennie Jarvis
Real sex isn’t as graceful and glamorous as romance novels and pornography often portray.
Real sex is learning you have a latex allergy while you lose your virginity.
And so, the stories, essays, poems, and comics in Condoms and Hot Tubs Don’t Mix offer realistic sex scenes to counter the overly coercive and falsely romantic scenes portrayed by books, films, and TV shows.
Sometimes, the sex is funny.
Sometimes, it’s messy.
Sometimes, it’s a total disaster.
But every time, it’s real.
The writers and editors donate all their proceeds from this book to Planned Parenthood.
(Because who knows the consequences of awkward sex better than Planned Parenthood?)
