Everything Happened to Susan (1972)
“The models who posed for the pictures were easy enough to understand; they looked like almost anyone who you might see in the street who had elected to pose nude in sexual positions for the money, but the advertisements were a different matter altogether, and, in the reading of the personal ads, Susan’s comprehension began to buckle. There was simply no attitude with which to properly handle them. Pleas for partners were published by fetishists, lesbians, homosexuals, heterosexuals, urinary-ori...ented males and females, coprophiliacs, and animal-lovers.

They were written by stocking fetishists, ear fetishists, breast-feeding fetishists, and old men only interested in conversation and companionship.
