Forget the Kama Sutra. When it comes to inventive sex acts, just look to the sea. There we find the elaborate mating rituals of armored lobsters; giant right whales engaging in a lively threesome whilst holding their breath; full moon sex parties of groupers and daily mating blitzes by blueheaded wrasse. Deep-sea squid perform inverted 69s, while hermaphrodite sea slugs link up in giant sex loops. From doubly endowed sharks to the maze-like vaginas of some whales, Sex in the Sea is a journey unlike any other to explore the staggering ways life begets life beneath the waves.
Beyond a deliciously voyeuristic excursion, Sex in the Sea uniquely connects the timeless topic of sex with the timely issue of sustainable oceans. Through overfishing, climate change, and ocean pollution we are disrupting the creative procreation that drives the wild abundance of life in the ocean. With wit and scientific rigor, Hardt introduces us to the researchers and innovators who study the wet and wild sex lives of ocean life and offer solutions that promote rather than prevent, successful sex in the sea. Part science, part erotica, Sex in the Sea discusses how we can shift from a prophylactic to a more propagative force for life in the ocean.

评分 评分 评分海底世界的《金瓶梅》 by 半仙 他在海边布置了浪漫的晚餐,还有烛光。 风微,烛火缓缓摇曳。 月色氤氲,像一首无声的诗。 其实是有歌的,远方的海浪在奔涌,或轻或浅,似猎奇的脚步,一股脑扑到岸边来。洁白的浪花,簇拥着,像无数双嬉笑的眼睛,它们专为窥探这一场用心良苦...
评分人们对于爱与性是如何定义的? 被作为敏感话题而不愿提及,相较于人类社会 在海洋中的爱与性,似乎更原始,也跟纯粹。 如果仅仅是看了这样的标题,会感到羞愧,那么我建议可不看,毕竟对于人的承受能力之强弱,或是愿意承受与否的可能性,追随本心反而会更轻松,那么,如果你愿...
