Reviews

American Dreamer
The Lifestyle may not be your style but it certainly is an eye opening little romp.

Mr. Showbiz
" I can't get The Lifestyle out of my mind. Certain ghastly sights just stay with people for years."

Nitrate Online
"The Lifestyle is the most persuasive argument for pornography in all of its unrealistic depictions of sexuality; watching forty and fifty-somethings participating in group sex (in between trips to the buffet table for jellied salad) is a truly bizarre and extremely non-erotic experience."
