2. BLURB:


    Imprinted Sexual Fantasies: A New Key for Sexology
offers a new hypothesis for explaining human sexuality:
Each human person is imprinted with specific sex-scripts
or sexual fantasies during our first 20 years of life.
Our first sexual responses are created
not by nature, not by nurture, but by mental imprinting.
If this hypothesis proves substantially correct,
it could revolutionize modern sexology.
