From an article on bookshelf etiquette:
The 'I'm desperate for a shag', male version
Must include prominent copies of The Golden Notebook and The Second Sex and any dreary rubbish by Ian McEwan lying around to show you are in touch with your sensitive side. Best to hide any well-thumbed copies of Belle du Jour and La Vie Sexuelle by Catherine M under the bed.
North American equivalent: prominent DVD copies of The Notebook and Sex and the City.
