...women are based on the same strategy: cutting the tubes that carry the sex cells on their paths toward junction and conception. In the woman, the Fallopian tubes−through which the egg cells travel from the ovaries toward the uterus−are hidden in the pelvic cavity of the lower abdomen. Before recent technical advances they were relatively difficult for the surgeon to reach. In the man, a tube called the vas deferens (literally, the "carrying-away vessel") arises from each testicle to carry the spermatozoa to the prostate gland where the seminal fluid is finally compounded for ejaculation...

...more beguiling and comfortable than your living room-indirect lighting, wall-to-wall carpeting, floor-length mirrors-but right away you begin to hurt.

It was like being back in the innocent '50s with Blue Suede Shoes, Love Me Tender, Jailhouse Rock, Don't Be Cruel, Heartbreak Hotel, All Shook Up-and of course, the mangy Hound Dog ("cryin' all the time"). But things weren...

Since then, Dr. HIPpocrates has become the best-read feature in the paper. Schoenfeld knew what his readers wanted-straight talk instead of "straight" lectures. To a questioner worried whether spray deodorants cause cancer of the armpits, he suggests daily bathing instead. To girls fearful of pelvic examinations, he carefully explains them.
