Sexual healing

I used to relish the challenge of being good in bed. I read the Kama Sutra with steely discipline, confident there wasn't a skill I couldn't master. Then I had a baby.

    What a humorless lot

    I enjoyed Ms. Williams short funny piece. It amused me, but not nearly as much as the letters from some bitter salon readers. It's supposed to be funny, not educational. It's basic comedy writing. The set-up - Ms. Williams was once a sex goddess - is necessary to have the joke about her post-baby sex life work. If she had set it up with boring details about her sexual misgivings and obstetrical advice, the piece would have been more along the style of Ms. Waldman and perhaps some other Salon contributors -self obsessed, whining, humorless and BORING.
