6, New printing of the celebrated iconic feminist coloring book -- available now from Last Gasp! First published in 1975 by lesbian activist and artist Tee Corinne, the Cunt Coloring Book was created as a resource for sex education. "In 1973 I set out to do drawings of women's genitals for use in sex education groups. I wanted the drawings to be lovely and informative, to give pleasure and affirmation. I organized the drawings into a coloring book because a major way we learn to understand the world, as children, is by coloring. As adults many of us still need to learn about our external sexual anatomy." --Tee Corinne Elegant and expressive anatomy for your coloring enjoyment! Crayons not included.
