Theroux is great in many ways.

The paragraph about the party:
"Rat-fuck" was the right expression for a party where a mob of people stood and drank and yelled in your face, looking past your head as you looked past theirs, for relief, for escape, for someone better known or wittier. At a certain point a party was just that: a loud room of coarse static, like a rookery of big frantic birds.
Fuck. In another ten years, I may know enough about writing to appreciate that.

Come back, Svet, for who else will whisper sweet cryptic nothings in my ear?

 

[cantdog]

You rule, wishful.

 

[Guest]

What about the other article?

Discuss.

 

[minsue]

Oh no!

You always hide such interesting articles behind your odd lil posts. I wish I'd discovered that sooner.

 

[Songcatcher]

I wish I'd discovered that sooner.

Thank fuck, I didn't have that problem.

 

[minsue]

Thank fuck, I didn't have that problem.

I'd assume not!

 

[Songcatcher]

I'd assume not!

You have such a beautiful smile, darling.

Cough! Cough! Puke! Puke!

Professor Tim Spector of St Thomas' Hospital, London now follows: female orgasm, he says, is all in the genes.

To come or not to come is out of a woman's hands or, for that matter, her partner's. It's all been decided by nature; biology rules that some women will never enjoy what the family planning pioneer Marie Stopes described as 'wonderful tides'. But given sufficient research, Professor Spector suggests, a drug may eventually be fund to 'cure' the non-orgasmic.
