- Sure, I notice women's bodies—but today was different. The first shapely female posterior I saw was at San Francisco’s West Portal MUNI platforms as I was running for a train. That woman disappeared into a crowd, but the moment I sat down another lovely tookus presented itself, right at eye level. She got off at Powell Street, only to be replaced by another derriere extraordinaire. On the ...

- After a certain age (perhaps 30? perhaps as early as 20?), one probably shouldn't read too much of DH Lawrence's writing, or too little of it. Now and again I return to his fiction, poetry, and essays either to reread something or take on a new work. He's a unique, over-the-top, incantatory, powerful writer whose contribution to human psychology remains unverified by almost anyone else. When I ...

- An observation……. WHAT IS COMMITMENT?

However, the chick at the store with the piercings and dyed ...

- Recently, while sitting at a neighborhood cafe in San Francisco, I sat next to a young French couple, clearly at the high tide of their romance.

- It was late when my cell phone rang, shaking me from the stupor that even my book, “Bonk: The Curious Couple of Science and Sex,” crashing onto the floor for the fifth time couldn’t do. It was Sara. “You asleep?” “Well, I’m not exactly sure but I’ve read the same paragraph four times now — more, actually, if you count last night. What’s up?” ...

- When a few of my friends got together recently — some in struggling marriages — we started talking about the good things that have happened to us because of our divorces. Overall, a lot of good had come from them, so I was originally going to blog about that, but the concept of "freedom" kept coming up.I have often said that, too: that I love my new-found freedom. But freedom from ...
