"Fifty Shades of Grey" is the year's best-selling book.  Unfortunately.

 

 

--And all year long, we've been told that it was soft-core porn for moms, who read about bondage and kinky sex while they're waiting to pick up their kids from soccer practice.

 

 

--But according to a new market-research report, almost as many MEN have bought "Fifty Shades" as moms.

 

 

--Fewer than 30% of the people who bought the book were moms with kids at home . . . and one in five customers, or 20%, were MEN.    

 

 

--Only 11% of people who bought the book said it was an impulse decision . . . the rest went looking for it.  And 1% said they bought the book "for work or career reasons".
