I stopped reading those bodice ripper type books when I was about 21 and realized that I would probably die a virgin, and it wasn't doing me any good to even imagine that sex was anything like it was in those books.
That's about the time I dove back into fantasy and science fiction, and I've never looked back.
That said ... one thing I sort of like about e-readers generally is that no one can tell what you are reading, unless they are parked over your shoulder. It could be "Man and Superman" ... or just plain old "Superman." It's all got the same cover.
