What I said was "war against birth control and the conservative pathologizing of sexual women." I'm more comfortable with that way of putting things, and I DON'T think that's the same as a "war on women." I'm not saying there is or isn't one, I'm just saying I'm not comfortable with that term.

Sorry about that. Thanks for the compliment, and thanks for the clarification...

Really? Where? First of all, the title of the article I wrote on Gather was tongue in cheek. If you read the article you would see that I simply reiterated the 'study' and went on to say that we've assumed sexual arousal increases during ovulation forever. In addition, it was silly to suggest women didn't enjoy sex as much as men anyway. **Pregnancy isn't even mentioned in the article. I enjoyed your article, other than you mentioning what I think is a made up 'War on Women'. I wish I had your writing talent! Ahh, maybe one day.
