How Daddy Got An STD: Understanding Safe Sex And Prostitution (Rejected Children's Books (Funny Books For Adults))

How Daddy Got An STD: Understanding Safe Sex And Prostitution... A Health Curriculum For The Curious Child

Dad goes out every night after the fights with mommy. What dad does, the household does not entirely know. What the doctor's office knows has recently become relevant family information, and this book explains the chain of events... from the argument, to the evening out, to the professional engagement, to the medical visit, to the prescription... with the educational clarity of a health pamphlet that has taken on considerably more than health pamphlets typically cover. This is a complete curriculum. The class begins with dad's decision-making. It does not end with the best possible outcome for anyone involved.

Illustrated with cartoon art and narrated with the bright, educational tone of a guide that truly believes information is the best medicine... which, in this case, it is not, but medication is also discussed... this adult parody book tackles the sex ed conversation that most illustrated guides approach sideways. This one approaches it directly, using dad as the case study, and finds that dad is an instructive if not exemplary model for the material being covered.

This Book IS For:

• Adults who believe sex education content should be honest, complete, and not require three follow-up conversations to clarify what was left out
• Anyone who has ever had to explain an adult situation to someone younger using the most carefully chosen words possible
• Fans of dark humor that takes a premise to its logical conclusion without making a U-turn at the uncomfortable part
• Gift-givers who want to hand someone something that functions simultaneously as comedy and as genuinely informative material about consequences

This Book Is NOT For:

• Dads who recognize this situation too personally to find it funny yet and need more time
• Sex educators who have curriculum standards and find this departure from them professionally distressing
• Readers who need the dad character to model better decision-making and redeem himself narratively by page twelve
• Anyone planning to use this as the primary sex education resource for actual children without supplementary materials

Appropriate For:

• Gag gifts for adults who work in healthcare and need something to put in the break room next to the informational posters
• White elephant exchanges where at least one person in the group works in public health and will appreciate the scope
• Bachelorette parties for the friend who has been describing herself as "in her healing era" since the breakup
• Anyone who went through a standard sex ed curriculum in school and felt it was missing some key real-world applications

Why Buy This

Standard sex ed costs a school year. This book costs roughly the price of a co-pay, which is appropriate given the subject matter, and it covers material that the school year does not address. The co-pay, in this case, is for a book rather than a visit, which also means you don't have to fill out forms and wait in a chair. Better value. Same general information about consequences and decisions.

Dad made some choices. The choices had outcomes. The outcomes generated a doctor's visit, a prescription, and this book. The book is the most useful thing to come out of the situation and it is yours for less than the medication that followed the visit that followed the decision that followed the argument. The educational value is real. The cartoon art makes it go down easier. Not unlike the prescription, ultimately.
