During the 1970s, before the rise of freely accessible hardcore pornographies, there was a brief moment of a few years where books and magazines ostensibly sought to 'teach' about sex, while providing pornographic imagery to curious readers. These books were often marketed as 'educational' and often marketed towards 'married couples', or at the very least, committed couples. In this article, I seek to study these books by framing them as 'sociopornographic', defining what is meant by that term and outlining key elements of the genre. To these ends, I study books that attended to analism, anality, and anal sex
