Screw : The Sex Review

description

Issue edited by Al Goldstein. Essays "Getting into Gracie: A Pussy Eye View of the Mayoralty Candidates," by Leah Fritz; "Well Hung Jury," by Albert Gerber; "69 on the Street Where You Live," by Al Goldstein; "Around the World with Mr. Toad," comic by Bill Griffith; "Why Women Fake Orgasms," by Joanna Danners; "Sex Addict," by Richard Field; "Whack off Ways," by Mike Hoc; "Fuckbooks: Books and Brutality," by Michael Perkins; "Undecided Dicks," by Lige and Jack. Page 26 features Dan Graham's piece "Detumescence," personal ad Graham placed in the magazine, about which he explained, "I had in mind a page, describing in clinical language the typical emotional and physiological aspects of post-climax in the sexual experience of the human male. It was noted that no description exists in the literature, as it is "anti-romantic." It may be culturally suppressed - a structural "hole" in the psycho-sexual-social conditioning of behavior. I wanted the "piece" to be, simply, this psycho-sexual "hole" - truncated on the page alone as printed matter. To create it, I advertised in several places. In late 1966, I advertised for a qualified medical writer in [Screw Magazine] (a sex tabloid). In early 1969, the New York Review of Sex gave me an ad. As both of these ads were somewhat edited, I bought an ad in Screw in mid-1969. I have received no responses." (from Rock My Religion : Writings and Art Projects, 1965-1990)
