A pornographic book for the blind

LONDON - Raised pictures of naked men and women and explicit text - that’s what the blind will get to enjoy in a new pornographic book, a media report said Tuesday.Called Tactile Minds, it is the brainchild of Canadian Lisa Murphy and has been designed for the blind and visually impaired. The magazine costs 150 pounds, The Telegraph reported.A naked woman in a ‘disco pose’, a woman with ‘perfect breasts’ and a ‘male love robot’ are some of the 17 raised images.Murphy said she made the book to fill a gap in the market.“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 was quoted as saying.Realising that the “blind have been left out in a culture saturated with sexual images”, she decided to make the book.
