C’mon, Just a Few Details?

I like it that Stuart Greene is unabashedly a fan of his wife’s front and back porch [“More Than a Mouthful,” October], but there’s one thing he’s missing, summed up in the ancient adage “It’s not what you have, it’s what you do with what you have.” It’s not trivial for two reasons: 1) gravity and age take their toll on both sexes and especially on women after childbirth; and 2) no matter how perfectly proportioned your spouse might be in your mind, a male’s propensity for variety lurks in any marriage. What’s needed is more attention on how us marrieds can keep the sparks flying with the assets we each have. I’ve got ideas and some experience, but I can’t go into details without stirring things up in a bad way on the home front. So Stuart, let’s have more.
