...sexual encounter in Vox is the very opposite of another contemporary landmark of literary eroticism, the zipless sex of the '70s. Erica Jong's cheesy fiction offered a New Age pardon for the grunting libido of genital-to- genital sex. Zipless meant voiceless. Vox, by contrast, is the ultimate in '90s safe sex: voices, not hands, caress each other as Baker teases out a rambling romp of a conversation followed by simultaneous masturbatory climaxes between partners thousands of miles away...

...going to bore you with my sordid history of no-night stands and zipless handshakes. Suffice to say I'm a bit jaded when it comes to Harvard relationships (generally defined as "vicious power struggles between insecure, manipulative egotists").

...queer fantasy of American education that some good must come of flying works of art, some irreplaceable and others mediocre, 13,000 miles at some risk so that a million curious people can look at them for about two minutes each, under coercively promotional conditions. Such brief and zipless encounters are thought to be beneficial for the public, like fluoride. If museums were not strapped for cash they would drop this hypocrisy at once. Anyone who wants to learn about art can spend years in the Met without exhausting its resources, and many thousands...

Inexplicably, Cathy's long legs, lavish curves, blond hair, pleasant disposition and cagerness to experiment sexually cannot hold Michael's attention. Hater Lina (Valerie Quennessen), a be witching French archeologist from the village down the street who fits Mike's bill as the perfect zipless fuck--there's really no more appropriate tern for it then that one, coined by novelist Erica long...
