"Undue aestheticism in representing sexual behaviour can also have harmful effects. The inauthenticity of sexual fantasy as it is stimulated by commercial representations of the woman as sex object leaves many immature men unable to cope with the eventual discovery that women do not feel smooth and velvety all over, that their pubic hair exists and is not swans'-down or vine tendrils, that a woman in heat does not smell like a bed of roses."
- 'Seduction is a four-letter word', Germaine Greer in Playboy, 1973.
