  Praise for Off Limits
  
  
  
  
  
  “University anti-sexual feminists have effectively pushed student professor
  intimacies into the campus closet. OFF LIMITS is a brilliant scathing
  indictment of the campus anti-sexual totalitarians. In OFF LIMITS the closet
  door is opened in the context of presenting a fictional student professor
  affair and the affair is used as a launching pad to systematically critique
  myriad aspects of the campus repression of consensual sex between students and
  professors.
  
  
  If you want to have a conversation about consensual sex, about student
  professor sex, this book would be an ideal starting point. If I was still
  teaching, I would definitely incorporate this book into my courses. Those
  teaching in the areas of the sociology of sexual behavior, the psychology of
  sex, sexual issues and literature, [et.al](http://et.al/)., should consider
  adopting this book. And it would be an ideal selection for a course on
  sociology thru literature.”
