"Unlike their Latin American colleagues, Argentine men are very eager to learn sexual techniques to better satisfy women — and also their own egos," says Alessandra Rampolla, a Puerto Rican sexologist who has come to the Buenos Aires Book Fair to launch her first book — on sex, of course. But, for for the first time during her frequent trips abroad, she left at home Bamba, a giant plush vulva she uses for sexual education on TV programmes watched throughout all Latin America.

there's lambchop and charlie mccarthy and the cookie monster and big bird, but, you gotta admit, "bamba" ain't something you run across every day...

"Everybody asks about Bamba," said a smiling Rampolla in an interview with the Herald at a downtown hotel. The expert was raised amid a conservative family background in Puerto Rico, attending a Catholic school and Jesuit university "with all their taboos about sex."

Rampolla graduated in French Literature at Loyola University in New Orleans and pursued postgraduate studies in matrimonial and family therapy. She is currently undertaking a doctorate at the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco, California.
