I have that one too. No one's ever requested it so it remains unused ( by me anyway ). I got mine gently used last year for $275. It was a great deal!
Best Decks For Erotic Readings

This is the card I Magician that I was referring to. I'm sure Google images has more examples from Manara.
This is not indicative of the deck as a whole. As I said a Google search should give you a better feel for the deck.
I'd be laughing too hard to interpret that card.

Out of curiousity, and pardon my frankness, in a lot of these erotic decks how do you give a reading for someone else without getting aroused by some of the images? ...hahaha I don't own any but I have some on my wishlist.

Being generally not attracted to men helps a good bit with most of them, and of course one learns to look at things rather like a doctor... from a sort of academic distance

It is true, the majority of these decks are heteronormative in their depictions but still the ladies are very sexy. I occasionally debate getting an erotic deck but have yet to make the leap. If I ever do get one I imagine it would be a deck for very specific questions.
Well, I have gotten a bit off topic, meanwhile I will enjoy following this thread.

For a really out their and non-normative take on the 22 trumps, Marseille style, this might be an option: http://www.lederniercri.org/prod/marc-brunier-mestas-tatarorot-1198.html

I've seen the Tarot of Sexual Magic in use once. It is visually very beautiful but a bit too straight and visually "contriving" in my opinion. I get many clients who are in gay relationships and this deck does not give way to a lot of variety. But worth watching at least. A bit off the track, I use Lenormand for erotic readings because it's more on symbols than finished images.

Tarot Erotica by Lori Walls looks interesting.

Anyone who has 25 or more posts can do a search for RED in the Reading Circles forum and find lots of exchanges using erotic decks. Many threads have attachments that show the cards.

as usual, boobs galore and the men are all covered. It'd be nice for the male-attracted gaze to be acknowledged a little more.
The Priapus freaks me out. I know a lot of Greek and Roman art depicts these themes in jest (in the case of animals) and in seriousness (in the case of youths) but in a contemporary setting I find those depictions pretty distasteful and in some cases downright disturbing.
It's a general problem I find with a lot of this type of content, in any medium, is that in order to elicit a visceral, emotional response, there's often a lot of 'weird' or transgressional stuff going on. Not even just kink, but ugliness and violence. I suspect it's maybe trying to break out of that 80's blue-light-and-saxophone saccharine thing; maybe the violence and ugliness is a ways of making erotica be acceptable - not fluffy or porn - because it's 'art' if its edgy. But I think more often it's just a way to ramp up the heartrate.
Looks like the Rohrig is as steamy as it gets in my collection!
