Sex in the City!


Its ‘Sex in the City’ for me these days…its all so sex-ed up!!
Well, I am not talking about the famous sitcom anyway but something where I or for that matter my life is getting all so full of sex!

Hmm, need to explain a bit more to make you stop from taking a wrong direction, stop rolling your eyeballs and keep those heavily mascara-ed eyelashes at rest…ahhh, breathtaking eyes!

It has been a regular affair for me to get queries on sex..umm sexual behaviors and such at work and also from friends. Hold on! Before you wear your detective glasses let me tell you I am no sex-agony aunt or a pornstar but my work on high-risk population for HIV makes me a reliable source of information on such oh-so clandestine matters.
And I have been hearing queries, doubts of my friends, sometimes from my friends for their friends.

But suddenly things were too much for me: wherever I go or look I only see or hear or read sex and I thought I should take a break and relieve off my tensions…umm!

My day at work was as usual: I had to go through the signs of forced sex and things like that. And then, an old friend typed in a passage asking me to comment on its validity as she and her gang of women friends had doubt on …well, you guessed it by now. I dutifully answered, discussed. Then I went back to my chores in that new city and it was tiring as when I travel I am extra finicky about things...thats a different story! Then there was a phone call from a long lost friend and I was at my warmest best to let (IT) know I was in travel mode and that we could have an extended conversation when I land at my turf. In doing so I did mention about the historic places I could sneak in that afternoon and pop came the question: those erotica? Well, I did not see any to arouse my senses..oops! Anyway. Then almost at the stroke of midnight my IM popped up another face in doubt, now on behalf of someone else: I tried to rightfully answer (them). As if these were not enough, my ‘conference reminder’ sent me an invitation to attend a conference which is a discourse on how to write well on sex! And I ask, what?
And I came back home over the weekend to know two of my friends are expecting and then on Monday when I was back at my desk with that ‘sunny’ view I was treated with a news that stork has visited two (or three? is not her husband my colleague as well?!) of my colleagues’ families…And I say, what?

I tell you, its all-so sex-ed up here. Give me a breather, please! Ufff!
