Pornographic magazine for the blind launched
A pornographic magazine for the blind has been launched - complete with explicit text and raised pictures of naked men and women
The book, the brainchild of Lisa Murphy and called Tactile Minds, is designed to be 'enjoyed' by the blind and visually impaired - and is on sale for £150.
Among the 17 raised images include a naked woman in a 'disco pose', a woman with 'perfect breasts' and a 'male love robot'.
Canadian Lisa says that she made the book to fill a gap in the market, adding: "There are no books of tactile pictures of nudes for adults.
"We're breaking new ground. Playboy has an edition with Braille wording, but there are no pictures."
She said that she made the book after realising that the 'blind have been left out in a culture saturated with sexual images'.
Between 1970 and 1985 Playboy printed copies of its famous magazine in braille - but without raised pictures.
At least they won't go blind!

So I guess the market for children has already been covered then.Canadian Lisa says that she made the book to fill a gap in the market, adding: "There are no books of tactile pictures of nudes for adults.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Not exactly naked.
Note that the figure doesn’t have hands, but does have a cross on a necklace.

A sufficiently copious dose of bombast drenched in verbose writing is lethal to the truth.

Oh great, so now the blind community will see (no pun intended) an increase in eating disorders?She said that she made the book after realising that the 'blind have been left out in a culture saturated with sexual images'.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

No hands, and no mouth.
Is this a fetish thing?

I had never considered the issue of pictorial touch porn for the poor of sight.
I am so glad someone has.
I wonder if it fills their need or further work will still be required?

Still, what are you going to do? Your “reading” hand is busy reading.

Maybe that was what the text was about.
Since you are blind if you get caught we remove your hands...

Can't the blind just call a 900 number?
