The Humour of Sex is a mistitled book. It's more like a collection of quotations in general on sexuality. For instance, I didn't find anything particularly smirk-worthy in the misogynistic snippet from Malleus Maleficarum.
Granted, there were some funny bits, but all in all, it looks more like the editors rummaged through their old books and movies and found anything they could that had to do with prurience or gender.
If you find the book for cheap, it's worth reading in the loo. But don't pay more than a buck or two. You won't respect yourself in the morning.
