Here are the most outlandish and charming ads actually published in newspapers, with witty portraits of the real people who placed them. These aspiring lovers-from a debonair hermaphrodite to an ex-male stripper-will shock, titillate, and tickle you.
"I cannot help but be seduced by the quirky charm and humor of Michael Smith's unique and imaginative photos. This book illustrates how far many of us will go to connect with another human being and gives me hope that there might indeed be someone out there for each of us. No matter how bizarre we are. I was only sorry I wasn't the seventy-eight-year-old male virgin's type. Michael Smith's book is a delight." -Carrie Fisher
