The SEX book 30th anniversary

[Roland Barthes 5,966]

It needs its own thread even though we already celebrated the 20th & 25th anniversaries, press included. I just wish she'd make a sequel NOW or at 70. Because it will be even more relevant and scandalous than it was in 1992. And it was. Let's remember the hoopla :

In fact we should now celebrate the backlash

I've been a fan for the last 14 years (I was eleven when I discovered her), and since then I wish to had Sex on my collection.

Finally, after all those years, my copy arrived on the mail this week. Complete with mylar cover and the Erotic cd. It was such a shock to open the package and see that beautiful mylar cover, I was literally trembling while I turned the pages. It was such an emotional moment for me a Madonna fan, and I still can't believe I finally have my own copy of this amazing book.

Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed listening to Big D Kane talking about the shoot.  It didn't surprise me to hear Madonna was being such a "free spirit" and initiated things.  I don't think even some of her fans realize how embedded she is in black culture.

As for Willie-D, it was like he was fishing hard for some shade and I love how Big D just shoved it back at him, and told him how cool Madonna was.

I feel SO lucky that I was already a fan at that time, and I remember the controversy... I was 11, and this was before the internet, so news were much slower and I didn't have access to everything going on, some of my memories are probably mixed with what I found out later, but I remember the Erotica / SEX book era, such a big part of pop history.

I loved being a fan during this time! Best era ever. Best music.

The Sex photos recently up for auction are posted in gorgeous quality on the Christie’s site. You can zoom in.

Also, kinda random, but on the back of the one with the 3 guys and her in the Marilyn dress, it looks like she included her last name in her signature

Wish I were born in the 80s so I could witness the release of this, I just love watching the old tv news reel about it. Idk how it was in America TV, but the way people treated it in Brazil was kinda funny lol

Just bought from a collector/reseller on facebook in group of fans. Idk if he ships outside Brazil, but I was looking on ebay and there's some interesting options there like this one below:

This is her best period of her career and the most influential, everything she was doing was avant garde and dangerous and that in itself is fascinating but equally fascinating was what came after. The backlash literally sent her into therapy, re routing her career and decades of guilt. in later years she has fallen into the woke indoctrination and she now sees herself as a victim. She cries in front of millions for being called a "witch" in the most embarrassing moment of her career that the stooge press and fans now celebrate. truth is, she learned nothing from the experience. She dismisses all criticism as coming from the right wing boogeyman instead of understanding what actually happened. SAD. Still, the book is there and it is amazing and I love it although it is annoying to see how sick people not only have plagiarized it but infused it over every element of the culture, without giving her any credit for it.
