amNew York's Julia Allison interviews Cosmopolitan Editor in Chief Kate White about her new book, "How to Set His Thighs on Fire: 86 Red-Hot Lessons on Love, Life, Men, and (Especially) Sex," replete with tips learned during her eight-year tenure at the sassy women's glossy (and no doubt perfected in the infamous Cosmo Love Lab). The book, out this week, was an "accident' - the result of a throwaway comment to her publisher - but now stands as the definitive guide to rendering warm the upper legs of your intended. Some preview tips:

  • #6: Guys Like a Firmer Touch During Sex Than You May Expect
  • -#71: Guys Secretly Love a Little Kinkiness
  • #42: Guys Like Women Naked, Period
  • #16: But Guys Don't Want To Hear About Your Actual Period (under the heading "Nine Topics that Make Guys Gag")
  • #27: Think With Your Panties (pity be to you, comfortable white cotton waist-cuts, for not realizing that...)
  • #65: Almost Everything Can Benefit from Some Added Sex Appeal

Consumer warning: This book will be especially dangerous to men when used in conjunction with the upcoming "Men, Love & Sex: The Complete User's Guide For Women" from David Zinczenko. There now, ladies, I think you've earned that Twinkie.

Excerpt: "How To Set His Thighs On Fire" (ABC).
