THE SLEUTHSAYER
Perhaps Dr. Alex Comfort said it best in his landmark bestseller The Joy of Sex:
"Sex ought to be a wholly satisfying link between two affectionate people
from which they emerge unanxious, rewarded, and ready for more."So, are you
ready for more of the rewards of Sleuth's sixth annual installment of the "25
Sexiest Women" in the world? `There's a perception, I think," the Washington Post's movie critic Hal Hinson
recently opined, "that these are sexually explicit times, especially in the media, but I'm not convinced it's true. If anything, sex seems deafeningly conspicuous by its absence." Present company excluded...
For within these pages you'll uncover a conspicuous cross-sex-tion of global glamour...evenly distributed along 13 domestic, and 12 foreign, bodies. Of the latter, you'll find two each from Canada, France and Italy; and singular sexpots of Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Hungarian, British and African-American origin. It's sort of a U-nuded Nations of earthly delights, a disarming declaration for the eye to ogle and the mind to boggle.
And speaking of variety, this illuminating manuscript not only features few photographic repeats, but even includes 25 different first and last names in its comprehensive contents. Nearly all of these shots you should be seeing for the very firsttime... until, that is, you view them over and over. As Sophia Loren observed: "Sex appeal is 50 percent what you've got and 50 percent what people think you've got." These are the people we think have got"it"...
Asked to define what constitutes "sexy," gossip guru and fashion follower Suzy Knickerbocker {the nom de plUmma-porn-star">Umage of Aileen Mehle}
shrewdly sUmmarizes: "Short skirts, if your legs are good. Low-cut tops,
if your bosom is good. Dresses with no back, ifyour back is good.
Cover what is not beautiful and uncover what is." Only Sleuth manages to
cover AND uncover what's beautiful between each set of covers...
Ever Vigilant,
