Midnight Sex Talk's Burning Question Of The Month (the century?): Is it now OK for a woman to call a man first? According to He’s Just Not That Into You, the massive bestseller by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo, the answer is no. A lot of other people say the same, anecdotally at least. So there you go. If someone likes you, they'll get in touch, no matter where they are, or how busy they are. But men still love the chase, and women need to get over the triumph of hope over experience and put that phone down. Ditto email, text, and carrier pigeon.
You usually know if someone likes you beyond just wanting to get it on for the night. But as Tipping Point author Malcolm Gladwell's Blink reminds us, we've lost touch with our intuition; and that while our subconscious brain works hard for us, we tend to ignore its warnings.
On a more physical note, we couldn't not mention kegel exercises. Men can do them as well, but women get a whole stack of plant to help us out, like the Kegelmaster, and other PC exercisers including the the Betty Dodson Vaginal Barbell, and the astonishing SexXcel, a squeezable bulb with its own pressure gauge!
PC is short for pubococcygeus muscle, by the way. Somehow the idea of a Vaginal Resistance that increases the power of the PC muscle evokes an image of Valerie Solanas, rapacious in a stained teeshirt, floating high above the beauty salons and nail bars. Which is kind of fine by me.
