Kinsey:
The Movie, The Man The
Sexual Research That Rocked The World
Lisa
S. Lawless, Ph.D., C.E.O.
Holistic Wisdom Founder
Starring
Liam Neeson and Laura Linney
Director:
Bill
Condon
Opening Date:
November 12, 2004
Rated: R
For
those of you who don't already know, the new movie Kinsey
is now in theaters portraying the life of sexologist Professor
Alfred Kinsey.
Alfred
Kinsey was a zoologist turned sexpert who published
two major studies- "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male" in 1948
and "Sexual Behavior in the Human Female" in 1953. To this day
they are still considered by some to be the foundation of human
sexuality research.
There
are those of course that are outraged that a movie about Kinsey
has been made, but I wanted to provide a more insightful look
into the film for those who wish to see it.
Having
studied Kinsey myself, I felt that the historical accuracy of
him was well done. I believe that it does encapsulate the true
life of Kinsey.
In
addition, I feel that this movie is not only entertaining, but
it will assist the viewer in better understanding the evolution
of our sexual enlightenment in our society and how Kinsey's
work impacts our lives to this day.
I
think it is shocking to watch it and remember that it was not
that long ago that we were rather ignorant when it came to sexual
matters. The pioneering efforts of people like Kinsey and Masters
& Johnson whose work we base much of our research on today
has allowed us to better understand our bodies and sexuality.
Not
to say that many people today aren't still misinformed about
their sexuality from crazy notions of douching with Coca Cola
after sex as a birth control method to the sheer insanity of
penis enlargement products that don't work and aren't typically
safe.
But
to recall when people thought that masturbation was unhealthy
or that oral sex on a woman would cause infertility is quite
humorous and sad. If it weren't for sexual pioneers like Kinsey,
we would probably still think these things.
While
they are funny to think about, I say they are sad because I
don't think many people really think about the mental anguish
people have gone through when it comes to embracing their sexuality
and still continue to. I should know, I get hundreds of eMails
everyday with stories from individuals and couples pouring out
their hearts about the worry, shame, and loss of self esteem
and relationships that come from sexual ignorance and repression.
It is a rather good reason for a film like this to have been
made and I hope to see more like it!
Because
Kinsey was originally trained as a zoologist, he made no moral
judgments on those that he interviewed and that is why is study
was profoundly accurate at the time. Kinsey based his work on
interviews with 5,300 white men and 5,940 white women. These
interviews serve as the foundation for his published works.
Each interview comprised up to 521 questions that touched on
anything and everything sexual including bestiality, pedophilia,
extramarital sexuality, homosexual tendencies, masturbation,
and penis size.
As
a result of these interviews, Kinsey promoted a seven-point
scale of normal human sexuality, with bisexuality the most "balanced"
state. Kinsey said that 37 percent of adult males had had at
least one homosexual experience. Critics of Kinsey insist that
Kinsey was the originator of the homosexual movement, when in
reality he simply brought attention to the truth about it.
The
most controversy surrounding his research and his one greatest
mistakes in my opinion was when he once incorrectly used data
from prisoners, prostitutes, pedophiles, and other sexually
promiscuous people to explain the behavior of all Americans.
This is one of the main reasons that abstinence supporters are
planning to protest the movie.
When
his books were first published, many critics immediately ridiculed
his methods. Many did not believe the people interviewed were
telling the truth or they called his work obscene. What
is sad is that many of his extreme critics try to tear down
his work by making up a lot of "what ifs" as their
arguments against his information. I mean what moron bases a
review on presumptions rather than fact. I will tell you who,
those who are terrified of their own sexuality.
We
seem to be going into a time of sexual repression again with
the Christian Right (which is in my onion... is neither) who
often advocate fear and shame based attitudes and laws against
sexuality. The truth is that we need to learn about our sexuality
for so many reasons. To help us prevent disease, improve self
esteem, improve relationships, and to understand how our bodies
work to name a few.
Kinsey is
by no means to be held high by people as the greatest researcher
of sexuality as he was human and I believe like all of us had
room for improvement. What I will say is that his pioneering
efforts should be celebrated and this movie does that well.
Kinsey
did have a way about him that allowed people to be relaxed and
so perhaps it was not that people were dishonest in their replies,
but rather more honest then ever before. Perhaps the truth was
disturbing to his critics rather than inaccurate.
The best message that the movie and the man makes is that knowledge
is power. Dr. Ruth said of the movie
"I think we have to be grateful to Kinsey because 50 years ago,
he was willing to talk about a subject matter that was really
taboo,"
Laura
Berman, PhD, LCSW
Clinical
assistant professor of obstetrics-gynecology and psychiatry
at the Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University
in Chicago, and director of the Berman Center in Chicago
Laura
Berman, PhD, LCSW said this of Kinsey "He set the foundation
for taking human sexuality out of the realm of morality." Before
his work, "the only discussion was what sex should be or is
supposed to be, not what actually happened." In a nutshell,
Kinsey said there was a wide gap between what people thought
was normal and what they actually did in the privacy of their
own bedrooms.
So much sexuality research is going on now, she says. "One of
the goals that I have that is similar to Kinsey is to demystify
elements of sexuality as well as to remove taboos and misunderstandings
around sexuality."
Berman is currently working on a national study of women looking
at the health and sexual benefits of sexual
aids and devices. "We want to get the conversation started
that this is not dirty and embarrassing and that 30 percent
of women are using these devices," she says. According
to her work, women who use such aids report higher levels of
sexual function and overall quality of life.
Ultimately,
this is the meaning and legacy of Kinsey - the person and the
movie. The 'religious right' is probably going to be very upset
about Kinsey. They may traipse out a lot of old, unproven rumors
about how Kinsey obtained his information regarding childhood
sexuality. They will probably claim that Kinsey used information
from shady characters, criminals, Nazis, pedophiles, or other
unsavory people. The truth of the matter is that, as a scientist,
Kinsey was willing to accept written and oral data from anyone
willing to reveal that private aspect of their lives.
What
Kinsey did was point out that we need to learn about our sexuality
from an open state of mind, by using science and not moral judgment
which can only cloud the truth about what people really think,
feel and experience.
In addition to the new film on Kinsey, his work is also the
basis of a new fictionalized novel by T.C. Boyle called "The
Inner Circle," a musical that is Broadway-bound, and two television
documentaries.
We
hope that this movie and other work will inspire people to think
about sexuality in terms of it's reality... the beautiful, complex
and sometimes challenging part of who we are. We should embrace
all that it is just as we should embrace all of who we are,
for without all the pieces of the puzzle we will never be fully
able to see it for what it is, what it is not and for the beauty
that it's positive and negative influence create in us.

Tantric
Tips To Supercharge Spiritual Love Focusing
On Sexual Pleasure By Avoiding Distractions
Tantric G-Spot Orgasm &
Female Ejaculation
By Jeffre & Somraj
Here's
the complete guidebook to supercharge your sexual play
with Female Ejaculation and Tantric G-Spot Orgasms of
incredible power and emotional sweetness.
No
longer will your or your lover's G-Spot be mysterious
and elusive. Read Somraj and Jeffre's latest ebook to
know exactly how to awaken it, find it, and touch it for
supreme pleasure. With frank language, step-by-step instructions,
real pictures, and clear charts, you'll learn how to excite
the G-Spot with fingers, tongues, and sexual intercourse.
This
new how-to sex manual guides you to expand your capacity
for pleasure by giving and receiving the amazing ecstasy
of Female Ejaculation.
Remember
when you were first smitten and all you could think about was
ripping each other's clothes off and going at it? Your pent-up
passion made you totally focused on sex, didn't it? We sure
hope that this still happens to you frequently, as it does for
us after eight years together.
It's
just a too-common experience of many couples that the early
explosive fire dies down as time together wears on. Your passion
fades, sex becomes routine, and you have less drive to jump
in the sack together.
Re-igniting
The Fires Of Passionate Love & Unbridled Lust
Maybe
this doesn't apply to you. But to those of us who're aging,
we just can't take the basic realities of sexual turn-on for
granted anymore. Erections aren't as reliable, lubrication doesn't
always come naturally, turn-on and orgasms can't be depended
on like they used to.
The
standard rap from sex therapists and manuals is that you just
need more foreplay. To be sure, in Tantra we make all kinds
of loveplay more exciting. But you still have to want to play.
And your motor has to rev up when you do.
It's easier when your raging hormones dictate when you make
love. As the forces of lust subside inside, you need to make
a conscious choice to keep your sex life alive. You realize
that without the continuing coming together, you're putting
your entire relationship at risk, don't you?
The
Secret Of Combating Waning Desire
Here's
a powerful tip to combat waning desire: focus. That means, when
you choose, putting all your attention on your bodies, your
sensations, and your pleasure.
When
lovers describe their heights of orgasm, they so often explain
that it seems that the rest of world disappears as they become
totally consumed with the pleasure surging between them. It's
clear that such intense concentration heightens the ecstasy.
In fact, total focus may be one the main reasons why orgasm
feels so good.
You
know that if your mind is elsewhere, you won't enjoy sex as
much. You may have seen our comments about the pinnacle of Tantric
Sex resembling sexual meditation. If you have a meditation practice,
it can greatly enhance your sexual experience if you bring that
inner stillness and mental quiet into your loveplay.
That's
why you'll find various meditation techniques in each of our
eBooks. The simple version of meditation is sit still, don't
try to think or do anything, and watch your breath moving in
and out. Or in the case of sexual meditation, concentrate on
the sensations coursing through your body.
How
To Focus Your Focus On Passion
How
do you enhance and use focus to stimulate your passion? The
two suggestions we include here are to remove distractions and
stimulate your senses.
A
vital part of Tantric Sex is to make your lovemaking arena beautiful,
sensual, and enticing. We call it a sacred space, because the
location of our lovemaking is something we hold dear to our
hearts.
Creating
a sacred space certainly means cleaning up your dirty laundry
and putting away things that are distracting. It means dimming
the lights, bringing in fresh flowers, lighting candles, changing
the sheets, spreading a beautiful sarong on the bed.
Don't
we all have images of the exotic harem where the sultan's wives
live? Silks and satins, soft candlelight, erotic background
music, subtle incense. Why not use these images in your mind
to decorate your bedroom erotically? Of course, you can do this
consciously anywhere you choose. For a special afternoon or
evening, we lay out futons in the living room in front of our
fireplace.
The
act of decorating together is a wonderful way to focus your
energy together.
Turnoffs
& Turn-Ons For Maximum Turn-On
Certainly,
turning off the phone and TV is a must. In fact, we don't have
either in our bedroom. It's our temple of love.
But
we do have a high-quality stereo. Advocates of Tantric Sex like
us specialize in all sorts of different kinds of music. Sometimes
we like soft harmonies, sometimes strong primitive beats. But
we rarely play vocals while we're making love. Our job is to
focus our minds on the sensations in our bodies, not on thoughts
and outside images.
With
busy lives full of important activities, timing can be everything.
When can you best focus on what's important? Do you leave sex
as the last thing when you're already tired? Maybe that's not
the best time for you to devote your full attention to exchanging
sensual pleasure.
We
understand that creating a sacred space of sexual focus and
sensual concentration is more challenging when others are around.
If you have young children, you need to work extra hard to maintain
your commitment to the health of your relationship through regular
lovemaking.
What
Is Most Important In Your Life?
Focus
on what's most important is a discipline when your hormones
aren't raging routinely any more. Build on our suggestions here
to maximize attention to your beloved and removing distractions
from your loveplay. If you have to schedule time for love in
your already packed existence, then show you mean it when you
say your relationship is important. Clear the slate before you
begin. Lock the door. Don't answer the phone. Put your eyes
on the most beautiful thing in front of you. Put your mind on
what counts most to your life in the long run. And, yes, guys,
you have to say it. Say "I love you" and mean it. Put your heart
behind it. Gush with all the things you appreciate about each
other. Put your attention on gratitude. Focus on the chemistry
-- the mystical forces -- that brought you together. Celebrate
the spark that still jumps between you. And when you play with
sexual energy, think of nothing else except how great you're
making each other feel.
Ask
Lisa
With
hundreds of eMails coming in every day and while I answer
man, it is not possible for me to reply to all of them.
However, I wanted to provide a section where we take
some of our readers questions and post them on our web
site so that we can provide answers so that everyone
can benefit from having the information available on
our web site.
To submit your question
such as those shown below eMail
us for consideration
of publishing it in our next newsletter.
My wife has a short vaginal length. When we are having
intercourse due to my length and her shortness, I am able
to go far beyond her cervix. My wife is very comfortable
with this and even encourages me to go further. My question
is- Can I do any harm by being internal within that area
of her body?
No
you should not be able to harm her cervix, although you
can chafe or tear her vaginal opening if not enough lubricant
is present.
During
vaginal sex, the penis enters the vagina (the stretchable
passage that connects a woman's outer sex organs- the
vulva) with the cervix and uterus.
The
cervix is the narrow lower part of the uterus, with a
very small opening.
This opening stretches (dilates) during childbirth, but
at other times, it's plugged with mucus and is too small
to allow a penis (or even a finger) to enter. During sexual
arousal, a woman's cervix lifts upward. This allows more
room for the penis to enter the vagina. That is most likely
what you and your wife are experiencing.
Lisa
S. Lawless, Ph.D., CEO
The
vagina and urethra are separated by a thin layer of spongy
tissues for sexual pleasure. The uterus/cervix are well
protected. Even with a prolapsed uterus and cervix lowering
down to the vaginal entrance, there is no way to penetrate
through the cervix orifice into the prolapsed uterus through
a penis or finger.
I
hope that answers your concerns and that you and your
wife continue to enjoy what sounds like a pleasureful
sex life!
Best,
Lisa
Hi
Lisa,
Do you think that abstinence only sex ed is effective?
-Mary
Hi
Mary,
I
know it doesn't. Recently there was an article by Planned
Parenthood that I thought answers this question perfectly...
Abstinence-Only
Education Flunks
by
Lisa Stokes
Abstinence-only
education — or ignorance-only education, as it has come
to be known — has little, and in some cases, no impact
on students' sexual behavior. That was the result of a
study conducted by the Minnesota Department of Health
(MDH). The study, typical of many others on the subject,
examined the impact of the state's abstinence-only sexuality
education curricula, known as ENABL.
The
study evaluated program activities; interviewed parents
in funded and non-funded counties, student participants,
target groups, and community groups; and studied secondary
data, such as abstinence rates and risk and protective
behaviors.
The
evaluator recommended that future sexuality education
methods use abstinence-based curricula that include information
about abstinence as well as other ways to prevent pregnancy
and sexually transmitted infections. The study also called
for longer-term projects that focused primarily on at-risk
students.
The
vast majority (77 percent) of parents in the funded counties
told researchers that they believed it was important to
both promote abstinence and teach about contraception,
findings that mirror federal survey results. The study
concludes, "The abstinence message is critically important
but is insufficient."
The
researchers also noted that the falling U.S. Teen pregnancy
rates are attributed to both increased access to and use
of contraceptives by teens (75 percent) and teens choosing
abstinence (25 percent).
Planned
Parenthood affiliates nationwide play a key role in preventing
teen pregnancy. Planned Parenthood of Minnesota/ South
Dakota (PPMSD), for example, provides teens and their
families with comprehensive reproductive health education
and services. PPMSD's professional and teen educators
work with community members through parent-child workshops,
after-school programs, and job preparation and peer education
programs to teach parents and teens about abstinence,
other methods of pregnancy prevention, and prevention
of sexually transmitted infections.

Lisa,
Thank
you for your extremely quick response. I am truly impressed
with your site, knowledge and professionalism. I have
been reading your newsletter for probably a few years
now and have never been disappointed. This is my first
purchase and I look forward to receiving your video and
Hitachi attachment. My girlfriend has enjoyed what I have
learned from your site thus far and I think the video
will bring a new excitement to our relationship. Please
keep up the good work, it is refreshing to see the level
of professionalism you display.
Happy
Times Ahead...
Hi
Lisa,
I
would just to add a short testimonial to your site. Several
years ago I was seeing a woman who could ejaculate as
you describe on your website. Sex with her was incredible
and sheer pleasure. When I would be performing oral sex
on her while she sat on my face, she would have multiple
orgasms and ejaculate every time. I would have the pleasure
of drinking every drop I could get. Some of course spilled
but it was sweet and warm and so delicious. I have to
admit at first I was curious as to it's origin and when
she sat on a chair and masturbated for me and I watched
it spray from her, I couldn't resist and that was the
first time I drank her cum. She has since moved away and
no longer see her.. I have been with other women and have
tried to satisfy them to the point of ejaculation but
have not succeeded.. I am looking forward to gaining knowledge
and instruction from you website and videos. Thank you
so much for your site.

Hi,
What
a cool newsletter. Since receiving my first issue I have
read them all and never has there been a issue with something
helpful in it. World events are something I really like
seeing in the news letter. How all these puckered people
in the world think they are saving me. From What? A happy
healthy life. With a positive attitude towards sex and
insuring my partner gets as much enjoyment as me. It is
sad that every thing in life has to be battled for in
the name of morality. Maybe sending all those men a Fleshlight
and all there wives a rabbit, they well stop sneaking
around all week long cheating on there spouses.
Feeling
they are just (due to going to church once a week and
think they are forgiven of the past weeks sneaky adventures
they had), to say I am a pervert cause I have a different
appetite for a woman's body other than using them for
my own pleasure like them. Thank you for not only standing
up for my personal sexual freedom but for standing up
for every persons sexual freedom in the world. We are
all partners and mates in life. Oh okay one other reason.
I don't know of any news letter in the world that has
such a sensual glowing woman's face on the cover of every

world glowed as you do.

The Christian Right Says You Can't Use Birth Control If you use birth control be
prepared to fight for your right to use them... the extreme
right is in office and we are at war for our civil liberties.
A
growing numbers of doctors and pharmacists across the
US are refusing to prescribe or dispense birth control
pills. I guess we knew this was coming since we are now
being governed by an fundamentalist Christian government.
Funny,
I thought we already took this path-
Reproductive-rights
activist Margaret Sanger was jailed for 30 days in 1916
for dispensing information about birth control in Brooklyn,
NY. Over the next several decades, Sanger's tireless efforts
to establish a woman's right to control her own body and
sexual freedom won her the respect and admiration of women
all over the world. Sanger was pivotal in finding research
money that led to the development of the birth control
pill in the United States in 1960.
What is Going On in 2004?
In
April, Julee Lacey, 33, a Fort Worth, TX, mother of two,
went to her local CVs drugstore for a last-minute Pill
refill. She had been getting her prescription filled there
for a year, so she was astonished when the pharmacist
told her, "I personally don't believe in birth control
and therefore I'm not going to fill your prescription."
Lacey,
an elementary school teacher, was shocked. "The pharmacist
had no idea why I was even taking the Pill. I might have
needed it for a medical condition." Melissa Kelley, 35,
was just as stunned when her gynecologist told her she
would not renew her prescription for birth control pills
last fall.
"She
told me she couldn't in good faith prescribe the Pill
anymore," says Kelley, who lives with her husband and
son in Allentown, PA. Then the gynecologist told Kelley
she wouldn't be able to get a new prescription from her
family doctor, either. "She said my primary care physician
was the one who helped her make the decision."
Lacey's
pharmacist and Kelley's doctors are among hundreds, perhaps
thousands, of physicians and pharmacists who now adhere
to a controversial belief that birth control pills and
other forms of hormonal contraception--including the skin
patch, the vaginal ring, and progesterone injection cause
tens of thousands of "silent" abortions every year. This
is odd considering that the egg has not even been fertilized.
I mean would you consider eating an unfertilized chicken
egg eating a chicken?
Scenarios
like these--virtually unheard of 10 years ago--are happening
with increasing frequency. However, until this spring,
the issue received little attention outside the antiabortion
community. It wasn't high on the agendas of reproductive
rights advocates, who have been preoccupied with defending
abortion rights and emergency contraception.
But when Lacey's story was picked up by a Texas TV station
and later made the national news, Planned Parenthood Federation
of America and others took notice. Limiting access to
the Pill, these groups now say, threatens a basic aspect
of women's health care. An estimated 12 million American
women use hormonal contraceptives, the most popular form
of birth control in the United States after sterilization.
The
Pill is also widely prescribed by gynecologists and family
doctors for other uses, such as clearing up acne, shrinking
fibroids, reducing ovarian cancer risk, and controlling
endometriosis. "Where will this all stop?" asks Lacey.
"And what if these pharmacists decide they suddenly don't
believe in a new lifesaving medicine? I don't think pharmacists
should be in a position to decide these things."
The
members of the antiabortion group Pharmacists for Life
International say they have every right to make that kind
of decision. "Our job is to enhance life," explains the
organization's president, pharmacist Karen Brauer, RPh,
who first refused to fill prescriptions for some types
of birth control pills in 1989.
"We
shouldn't have to dispense a medication that we think
takes lives." Anti-Pill doctors and pharmacists base their
stand on the fact that the Pill isn't perfect: Although
it is designed to suppress ovulation and prevent fertilization,
both can--and do--occur in rare cases. About 1 woman in
every 1,000 who takes the Pill exactly as directed becomes
pregnant in a given year. But while mainstream experts
say ovulation happens only 2 to 3 percent of the time
and fertilization is rare, anti-Pill groups claim both
happen frequently.
They
say most of these fertilized eggs--in their view, nascent
human lives--are unable to attach to the hormonally altered
uterine lining. Instead of implanting and growing, they
slough off. This theoretical action, which scientists
can't confirm, is called the post-fertilization effect.
At the heart of the debate between anti-Pill forces and
mainstream medicine lies a profound difference of opinion
about when pregnancy and life begin.
The
long-standing medical definition of pregnancy, held by
the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists,
is that it starts not when an egg is fertilized, but when
the fertilized egg implants in the uterine lining.
There's no science to back the theory that birth control
pills really do discourage implantation. This claim, made
by contraceptive manufacturers for decades, has never
been proven, Grimes says. Even the American Association
of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists agrees that
it's just speculation which seems to be much of what extreme
right groups base their beliefs on.
Under
the Radar In the past decade or so, the "hormonal birth
control equals abortion" view has quietly grown roots
in the antiabortion underground. It's spread from doctor
to doctor, through local newsletters, in books with titles
such as Does the Birth Control Pill Cause Abortions? (written
by Randy Alcorn, an Oregon-based antiabortion pastor and
author), and through lobbying groups that have encouraged
lawmakers in Arkansas, South Dakota, and most recently
Mississippi to enact "conscience clauses." These legislative
provisions protect health care professionals--in this
case, pharmacists--who refuse to provide services they
oppose on moral, ethical, or legal grounds. At press time,
similar legislation had been introduced in 11 more states.
An
Internet search turns up thousands of Web sites containing
articles with titles such as "The Pill Kills Babies,"
"Are Contraception and Abortion Siamese Twins?" and "The
Dirty Little Secrets about the Birth Control Pill." Hundreds
of physicians and pharmacists have pledged not to provide
hormonal birth control. Among them: 450 doctors affiliated
with the Dayton, OH-based natural family planning group
One More Soul; some members of the 2,500 doctors in the
Holland, MI-based American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians
and Gynecologists; and a growing number of the 1,500-member
Web-based Pharmacists for Life International, says Brauer.
Not even anti-Pill groups know how many doctors and druggists
are involved. And while the total is still a small percentage
of the 117,500 family physicians and OB/GYNs and 173,000
pharmacists in the US, they are making their presence
felt in women's lives and among law and policy makers
on both the state and national levels.
Their
influence is far-reaching and disproportionate to their
size--a quiet version of the public shock waves produced
by the nation's relatively small number of antiabortion
activists. "Refusing women access to the Pill is a very
disturbing trend," says Gloria Feldt, president of Planned
Parenthood Federation of America. "The war on choice is
not just about abortion anymore. It's about our right
to birth control."
Religion
Versus Public Health Anti-Pill doctors and pharmacists
say the issue isn't about a woman's right to hormonal
contraceptives, but about the right to act according to
their beliefs. "I feel chemical contraceptives have the
potential to harm an embryo," says Mary Martin, MD, an
OB/GYN in private practice in Midwest City, OK. "And I
decided, based on moral and ethical grounds, that I simply
could no longer prescribe them."
She
stopped writing prescriptions for hormonal birth control
in 1999. OB/GYN Arthur Stehly, of Escondido, CA, who hasn't
prescribed contraceptives since 1989, says he feels the
same way: "I function better and I sleep better at night
knowing I'm not giving the Pill." But at what point does
personal belief undermine public health? If more women
lose access to hormonal contraceptives, rates of unintended
pregnancy and abortions will rise in the US, predicts
Beth Jordan, MD, medical director of the Washington, DC-based
Feminist Majority Foundation, an advocacy and research
group.
What's
more, oral contraceptives aren't only used to prevent
pregnancy. The Pill may cut the risk of ovarian cancer
by up to 80 percent and is used by women at high genetic
risk for this hard-to-detect and usually fatal cancer.
"There are easily more than 20 noncontraceptive uses for
the Pill in common practice," says Giovannina Anthony,
MD, an attending physician of obstetrics and gynecology
at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. "This
drug saves women from surgery for gynecological conditions
like endometriosis, fibroids, and severe bleeding and
pain."
Most
women's doctors agree that contraceptives are an important
tool of good medical care. "I have a hard time with people
who market themselves as women's health care physicians
but who won't prescribe such a basic part of women's health
care," says Anne Drapkin Lyerly, MD, a reproductive rights
ethicist and an assistant professor of obstetrics and
gynecology at Duke University Medical Center. "We're seeing
a growing trend among pharmacists and medical practitioners
who consider it acceptable to impose their morality on
women's bodies. I don't think moral aspects should be
a concern. Imagine a pharmacist asking a customer whether
his Viagra prescription is to enhance sexual performance
in his marriage or in an extramarital affair. Never!"
Yet, this is the direction America will be headed with
such a strong religious right leading it.
Katie
Williams' Story Last winter, 24-year-old Katie Williams
encountered a doctor who refused to give her a prescription
for the Pill, even though she'd already been taking it
for 5 years--originally to relieve extremely painful menstrual
cramps.
Williams,
who had just moved to Milwaukee for a job with an insurance
company, realized she was nearly out of Pills. Her roommate
recommended the physician who had written a Pill prescription
for her a year before: Cynthia Jones-Nosacek, MD, a board-certified
family doctor with St. Mary's Medical Clinic, a Catholic
medical center in Milwaukee. Williams made the appointment,
explaining she needed a routine annual exam and a new
prescription. But when she arrived at the office, recalls
Williams, "the doctor's assistant told me 'the doctor
doesn't write prescriptions for the Pill.' I was totally
floored. I just stared at her. " Williams opted to take
her chances and see the doctor anyway, thinking the assistant
must have been confused. After the doctor finished her
exam, Williams asked for her script, explaining she'd
been taking the Pill for several years. "The doctor told
me she doesn't believe in oral contraceptives and does
believe in natural family planning," Williams claims.
"I told her that's ridiculous." Angry,
Williams stormed out of the doctor's office.
Williams,
got her prescription later that day. Desperate--new to
her job, she couldn't afford to take off another day without
pay--she asked for help from an employee in Jones-Nosacek's
office, who told her there was an OB/GYN in the same building.
Williams went there directly and asked one of the doctor's
assistants to relay her story to the gynecologist.
This new doctor wrote her a prescription, no questions
asked. "The doctor's assistant was shocked," says Williams.
"She couldn't believe any doctor would refuse to give
the Pill to somebody who had already been taking it successfully."
Friends
in High Places Planned Parenthood's Feldt believes anti-Pill
groups, like the larger antiabortion movement that spawned
them, have been emboldened by the Bush administration's
antiabortion policies and appointees. "Pro-life groups
know they have friends in high places," she says. In his
first budget to Congress, President Bush stripped out
a provision that required insurance companies participating
in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program to cover
contraceptives.
He
has also withheld funding for international family planning;
signed the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, which
critics say could result in making even second-trimester
abortions illegal; and signed the Unborn Victims of Violence
Act, which gives a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus separate
legal status if harmed during a violent crime. (Abortion
rights groups say that giving a fetus separate legal rights
from the pregnant woman opens the door to prosecuting
anyone involved in an abortion.)
Bush
also appointed three antiabortion doctors to the FDA Reproductive
Health Drugs Advisory Committee: W. David Hager, MD, Susan
Crockett, MD, and Stanford. When their committee and the
FDA's Nonprescription Drugs Advisory Committee met jointly
last December, the group voted 23 to 4 in favor of giving
over-the-counter status to emergency contraceptives. Dissenters
included Hager, Crockett, and Stanford. In May, the FDA
decided not to grant the drug OTC status.
While
Hager and Crockett have gone on record saying they do
not believe standard birth control pills cause abortions,
their colleague Stanford says he has never prescribed
them. "I found out in medical school that they may prevent
fertilized eggs from implanting, and I decided then that
I wasn't ever going to prescribe them," he says.
A
paper of Stanford's, published in the February 2000 issue
of Archives of Family Medicine, in which he discusses
the post-fertilization effect of the Pill, is often cited
by anti-Pill groups. Federal and state legislators are
quietly adopting similar views. US Senator Rick Santorum
(R-PA), for example, does not support use of the Pill
to prevent pregnancy, his staffers told Prevention. In
March 2003, during a debate on the Senate floor that touched
on emergency contraception, Santorum said, "I will not
be supportive of covering medications that would lead
to a fertilized egg not [being] implanted in the uterus.
Though
three states have conscience clauses for pharmacists,
there is no such legal provision in Texas, where the CVs
druggist refused to fill Julee Lacey's prescription. The
night it happened, Lacey says, she was shocked and responded,
"Are you sure? I've had this filled here many times before."
But the pharmacist was emphatic. "I just couldn't believe
what I was hearing," recalls Lacey. "It was a school night,
and I knew I had to put my kids to bed and get organized
for work the next morning. I didn't want to run all over
town for my Pills."
Lacey
and her husband complained to the assistant store manager
that night and the district manager the next day. Finally,
the pharmacy supervisor called and said he would have
Lacey's prescription delivered that day. "He apologized
and said he was unaware of the pharmacist's moral objections
to the Pill. Apparently
it was a new belief," says Lacey. (A CVs corporate spokesperson
contacted by Prevention confirmed Lacey's story. None
of the employees has ever been named.)
Pharmacists
in other states have refused as well. In 2002, a Kmart
pharmacist in Stout, WI, allegedly denied Pills to a student
from the local campus of the University of Wisconsin.
The state department of regulation and licensing filed
a complaint against the pharmacist; at press time a hearing
on the matter had not yet taken place.
In
1996, Brauer says, she was fired from a Kmart pharmacy
in Delhi, OH, after she refused to sign an agreement to
dispense all lawfully prescribed medications regardless
of her feelings or beliefs. (She filed suit against Kmart,
but since the discount chain is in bankruptcy proceedings,
it has never been settled.)
While
abortion continues to be a divisive public issue, contraception
is not. In fact, 95 percent of American women use some
form of birth control during their childbearing years.
This is no silent majority. When a woman is denied the
Pill and the incident becomes public, it triggers a loud
response.
Case
in point: After Lacey's story appeared in the Dallas Morning
News, there was an enormous outpouring of letters from
readers appalled by the pharmacist's actions. "This was
a huge issue in our area, and we're a conservative community,"
says Emily Snooks, director of media relations and communications
at Planned Parenthood of North Texas. "People here are
still talking about it, simply because the vast majority
of people in this country believe access to birth control
is a basic right." But what will you do if, like Kelley,
Williams, and Lacey, you encounter a doctor who tells
you no or a pharmacist who won't honor your prescription?
"If your gynecologist won't prescribe the Pill, find a
new doctor--and tell all your friends what has occurred,"
says Vanessa Cullins, vice president for medical affairs
at Planned Parenthood Federation of America in New York
City. The same goes for pharmacists who refuse to fill
your prescription. The best defense against this grassroots
movement, Cullins notes, is another one--in opposition.
Is
this what the USA is coming to?
If you look at the red states that voted for Bush you
might think that most of America does believe these things.
But what no one seems to be mentioning is that the major
cities were typically blue and are for a different kind
of America where we do not believe that religion should
dictate the rights and civil liberties of Americans. In
those major cities you will find much higher populations
than the outer lying ones with towns that can have five
families! Sane and rational people in America do not believe
our government should become the nightmare of George Orwell's
1984 or be in a position to take away the rights of women.

Maher is being sued by a woman who claims he shook
her at a party and welched on promises to marry her and
buy her a home in Beverly Hills. Nancy "Coco" Johnsen,
a former model and flight attendant, is seeking $9 million
and other unspecified damages, according to a lawsuit
filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
It
accuses the political comic of fraud, battery and assault.
Johnsen claims she fell in love with the HBO "Real Time"
host during a 17-month relationship that began in January
2003.
Give

Naked Man Jumps Onto Moving Jet
A Canadian man, angry that he was refused a plane ticket
to Australia at Los Angeles International Airport, stripped
naked, sprinted across the tarmac and climbed into the
wheel well of a moving jumbo jet, officials said on Wednesday.
Pilots of the Qantas Airways flight stopped the plane.
The
man was coaxed out of the wheel well and arrested for
trespassing, said airport spokeswoman Nancy Castles. "This
was an extremely dangerous thing for him to do. If he
had continued to cling in there with the aircraft taking
off at over 200 miles (320 kph) per hour, he might have
fallen out and could have been sucked up by an engine,"
she said. "If he had survived that and was in the wheel
well when the landing gear was retracted, he could have
been crushed by the mechanism. And if not he very likely
would have frozen to death during the 15 1/2 hour flight
at 30,000 feet while wearing no clothes."
The
man, Neil Melly, 31, tried to buy a one-way ticket on
the Qantas flight on Monday evening, but was turned down
because he could not supply a valid credit card, Castles
said. Later, he managed to climb over an airport fence,
topped by three strands of barbed wire, without injury
and was spotted by a ramp worker "running, naked, full-speed"
toward the plane. Castles said a check by authorities
found that Melly had been reported missing to the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police and was suffering from bipolar
disorder, a manic-depressive illness.
Pop Star Wants Court To See Her Sex Tapes
A
top Croatian pop star asked a Zagreb court on Friday to
watch a private movie in which she enjoys a lusty sex
romp to see whether her copyright was violated by a Web
Site that showed it to the public. Severina Vuckovic,
32, sued the www.index.hr web portal for publishing shots
of her having sex with a man later identified as a wealthy
Bosnian Croat businessman who is married with children.
Her
lawyers demanded the video be shown in court, state news
agency Hina reported. In a separate motion, the defendants
also asked that a court-appointed sex expert see the video
to determine if Vuckovic had "demonstrated anything not
previously seen in the porn industry," which could qualify
for copyright, Hina said. "I do not think she has shown
any new sexual art," the portal's owner, Matija Babic,
told the agency.
The
stills and whole 11-minute video clip quickly became the
hottest Internet item in the former Yugoslav republic,
where Vuckovic is a sex symbol but has often projected
a modest and religious image. Independent media estimated
the video had been downloaded 10 million times and way
beyond Croatia's borders. Vuckovic said it was stolen
from her private collection.
A Future For Male Contraception
Developing
a new contraceptive for men may involve prompting an immune
reaction to a protein that is produced in the male reproductive
system. The method worked in experiments on male monkeys
and could one day supplement condoms and vasectomies,
the current methods available to men. When the immune
treatment was stopped, most of the monkeys regained their
fertility, researchers reported in the journal Science.
`
`Immunocontraception
for males is a possibility and hopefully will be developed
for human use over the next several years,'' said Dr.
Michael O'Rand of the University of North Carolina. Progress
depends on funding for the work and, even with unlimited
money, translating the findings into human use could take
a decade, said O'Rand, lead researcher on the project.
Vaccine For Cervical Cancer Looks Effective
Researchers
say a second experimental cervical cancer vaccine appears
to broadly protect against infection and risky precancerous
conditions for more than two years, affirming scientists'
belief that the disease could be progressively eradicated
in a global campaign much like smallpox and polio.
The
study, which was conducted in the United States and Brazil,
showed patients given the vaccine sustained a high level
of immune response against the virus that spreads cervical
cancer, and that it would prevent infection for many years.
Whether revaccination ultimately would be needed must
be determined by an additional, longer trial, researchers
said.
Safe Sex Phone Messages For Teens
UK
teenagers to get safe-sex messages on Phones be able to
get text messages about contraception and safe sex as
part of a campaign to reduce the high number of unwanted
pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections, a charity
announced. The Brook pregnancy advisory service said:
"Our new texting service will mean more young people have
the facts literally at their fingertips, giving them an
alternative to our existing confidential online and helpline
inquiry services. "Technology has come a long way in the
40 years since Brook was established and we aim to make
the most of those changes." Reports of sexually transmitted
infections in Britain have soared from 449,666 to 708,083
since 1995. The country also has one of the world's highest
rates of unwanted pregnancy and abortion.
HIV Discrimination For The Black Community
African-Americans
with HIV who were treated by white doctors tended to receive
potent anti-HIV drugs known as protease inhibitors after
they became available in the mid 90s several months later
than did those treated by African-American doctors.
These
findings are reported by Dr. William D. King, at the University
of California Los Angeles, and his colleagues with the
HIV Cost and Services Utilization Study. One way for minority
patients to combat these trends would be to "arm themselves
with information and educate themselves about their health
care, so they are able to work with physicians in partnership
regarding their health care," King said.
Sources
of such information include the Internet and educational
workshops. "Then if they realize their doctor is deviating
from the standard of care or they're not getting the care
they need, they can show their discontent, either verbally
or by...finding themselves another physician," King advised
According to the article in the Journal of General Internal
Medicine, King's study involved 1241 patients and 287
health care providers, recruited soon after protease inhibitors
were approved by the FDA for treating HIV.
Botox For Her Vagina?
Botox-Type
Drug Helpful for Vaginal Spasm Disorder may suffer from
Vaginismus, a painful condition in which muscles around
the vagina go into involuntary spasm with little or no
provocation. About 10 percent of women with Vaginismus
are not helped by conventional therapy -- which can include
lubricants and anesthetic creams, anti-anxiety drugs,
and Kegel exercises -- but now Iranian researchers have
come up with an alternative in such cases.
Local
injection of botulinum toxin -- better known as Botox
-- is an effective and safe way to treat Vaginismus that
has not responded to other treatments, report Drs. Shirin
Ghazizdeh and M. Nikzad of the Vali-e ASR Reproductive
Health Research Center in Tehran. The researchers tested
botulinum toxin injections in 24 women with severe Vaginismus
that had not been cured with previous treatment.
The
women were injected in three sites in muscles on either
side of the vagina while under light sedation. The participants
were followed-up a week later, and then for up to 24 months
after the procedure. One patient refused a vaginal exam
the week after the procedure, but the other 23 who were
examined had little or no Vaginismus at that point, the
investigators report in the medical journal Obstetrics
and Gynecology.
Eighteen
of the patients were able to have intercourse successfully
after the first injection. Four reported some pain with
intercourse, and one reported being cured after a second
series of injections. One woman was not able to attempt
intercourse with her husband due to his secondary impotence.
None
of the patients experienced a return of Vaginismus, and
all said they would recommend the injections for others
with the condition. While the botulinum toxin treatment
is effective, Ghazizdeh and Nikzad recommend that patients
try other treatments first. "Botulinum toxin may be appropriate
therapy for patients with Vaginismus who have failed to
respond to conventional therapies," the researchers conclude.
"However, therapy with botulinum toxin should be considered
experimental and ideally administered as part of clinical
trials."
Children Want To Learn About Sperm Donor
Children
conceived through open-identity sperm donation are interested
in contacting the donor but do not want to intrude in
his life. Scientists from the University of California,
Davis, questioned children conceived through open-identity
sperm donors and found they were curious and eager to
learn about their origins.
They
are not looking for a father in their donor. If anything,
they want something like an 'older friend' relationship."
Open-identity programs enable adults conceived through
donor insemination to contact the donor if they have questions
about their genetic background.
With
more programs offering open-identity sperm donation and
countries such as Sweden and the Netherlands making it
obligatory, Scheib and her colleagues emphasized the need
for more research into how it affects both the donors
and the children. They studied 29 young people aged 12-17
who had been conceived through an open-identity program
at The Sperm Bank of California. The research is published
in the journal Human Reproduction.
Most
of the children grew up knowing how they had been conceived.
All had been told by the age of 10. Thirty-eight percent
of them had single mothers, just over 40 percent had lesbian
parents and 21 percent had heterosexual parents. "Although
this is a small study, its findings are reassuring in
relation to the youths' well being and also reassuring
for the donors," said Scheib. Nearly all the children
had no problem in discussing how they had been conceived
with other family members or close friends. The presence
of two parents, either heterosexual or lesbian, seemed
to diminish interest in learning about the donor. "While
it appeared that the children were very curious and eager
to learn more about their donor, they were also concerned
about respecting his privacy and not intruding on his
life," said Scheib.
Men Drop Drawers For Charity
Want to see a middle-aged guy with a receding hairline
and a paunch take off his clothes? The Rotary Club in
Batavia, New York, is hoping thousands of people want
a good look. The charity is publishing a calendar for
2005 featuring 13 of its members in the buff. As old as
65, the models bare nearly all. Mr. January covers his
critical bits with a jackhammer, alongside a suggestive
quip about his heavy equipment. Mr. February poses behind
a bouquet of well-placed flowers, while Mr. May perches
on a desk with a laptop computer in his lap. The models
include a retired dentist and a building contractor.
The
local county manager, Mr. April, wears nearly nothing
save his running shoes. Like the popular 2003 movie "Calendar
Girls" based on a group of English women who pose nude
to raise money, the idea came to the Rotary Club as it
struggled to find new and unique ways to raise money for
its projects. Its charity work includes a $250,000 commitment
to the local hospital. "It was a matter of thinking outside
the box, or the boxers," said Rosalie Maguire, a club
member who helped put the calendar together.
Nearly
1,000 calendars, at $20 apiece, sold in just two weeks,
and requests are coming from around the nation. Maguire
said getting volunteers to pose was easy -- 13 of the
first 14 men asked agreed to sign on. Not all the members
of the club, or the community in the western reaches of
the state, were thrilled, she added. "Any time you try
something creative and different like this, you do set
yourself up for some criticism from some people," Maguire
said. "We expected that." But she said: "It really is
not dirty. It's suggestive and fun and funny." Mr. April,
also known as Jay Gsell, said posing was fun. His wife,
however, had mixed feelings, he said. "I'm not my own
boss. I work for other people," he said, "That's what
she's most concerned about." Nor, he added, is she thrilled
that his nude picture is now the screen saver on her girlfriend's
computer screen.

and Roz Focker (Hoffman and Streisand). The hyper-relaxed
Fockers and the tightly-wound Byrneses are woefully mismatched
from the start, and no matter how hard Greg and Pam try,

lawyer and Roz Focker (Streisand) is a sex therapist for
seniors.

for Seniors, these blue shapes are Liberator

blue shapes on the floor. There are two blue ones on the
left, and a cone-shaped one just below Barbara's arm on
the right of the screen.
