Sex For Sale (1974, Hong Kong) haiuken 2.5/5 
A young guy (Chin Han) comes to Hong Kong and can't find work, and ends up modeling and working with one of the top models. He's naive, but has a 'nice physique', and starts to learn quickly how perverted the world is. He even turns down his slutty landlord who wants him to sleep with her to keep from raising his rent. He says, "I'd rather sleep in the streets!"
Sure enough, he's soon 'taking care of' a handicapped rich woman, and compromising his principles left and right, being passed around 'the scene' as the latest boy toy. Even the secretly gay singer has a thing for him. All of this while falling in love with the one person who doesn't want him! (Ai Ti - The 'Sex Bomb from Taiwan' it says in the opening credits.)
This Runme Shaw produced film features some groovy 70's music and fashion, and though it may not be as cool as what was going on in film in Japan at the time, it's still fun to see. 
That's not to say it's good. The main characters self-righteousness is a bore, even as he keeps getting laid by all of these hot ladies, and the nut kicking contest between him and his rival that leads to his downfall is more funny than tragic. The nudity is probably considered gratuitous for the time, but somewhat tame by today's standards - there are no knife fights, no drugs - these cats are all pretty square!
