Basically, no. First, I feel like my husband's and my sex life doesn't need that much help. We do pretty well, I think. 20 minutes is a quickie for us. More often it's 45 minutes, sometimes longer. Our biggest problem is that with my vestibulitis and tendency to get yeast infections that require abstinence during treatment (otherwise too painful), my body can't keep up with either one of our sex drives. Sometimes I'll give him something without getting any in return, but I still lubricate some during that so it may still exacerbate a yeast infection. I probably get 6-10 infections a year. My poll answers were about needing more information about what the workshops involve, but basically unless you address medical issues, I would not feel it is right for me.
What was the sex part of this question? I seem to have missed it.
I wanted to ask how you are defining these two words. My husband, for instance, has an allergy to mushrooms, although even he says it's more of a food sensitivity. But I doubt he can take something for it; he gets violently ill when a food has even been cooked with mushrooms (it's not enough to just take them out, the food has to be prepared again). And when I say violently ill, I mean it comes out of both ends, depending on his level of exposure. I think his lightest reaction has been his stomach doing "flip-flops." Anyway, I know that even though it's bad, it's not the same as his throat contracting and him needing to get to an emergency room. But it has made a difference in what we can do. A trip to the Olive Garden ruined a concert for him because the menu didn't say anything about mushrooms, so he has to be very careful. So I just wondered, are you defining "intolerance" as anything other than a swelling/itching/asthma type reaction?
In general I prefer a female doctor to a male doctor doing the exam. Women know what it feels like to have someone's hands down there and I think this is why most of them are gentler. I say most - my last gynecologist's technique was more like the male doctors who have examined me in the past, i.e. shove in the speculum, shove in the finger, whip, whip, all done. Men have no idea; it's like they're working on their cars. But because I've had male doctors for longer than I've had female doctors, this technique feels familiar to me, so it's not as bad as it used to be.
Well, any other president who got us in an illegal war would be wrong too. George W. has committed WAR CRIMES. A war of aggression is a WAR CRIME. Not to mention Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, deceiving the American people on the reasons for war, refusing to recall National Guard troops to help with Katrina, spending like crazy and eliminating our budget SURPLUS that we had with Clinton and the Congresses that served at that time (and not only refusing to raise taxes, which we have always done in wartime, but giving his rich buddies tax breaks), appointing cronies, fostering an environment of "anyone who disagrees with us is not a patriot/not American, etc."...There are a hundred reasons why this man is a bad president. If we can impeach Clinton for a semen stain, we can sure as heck impeach Bush for what he's done!
