Sunday, February 09, 2003UPDATE: Regarding the above contrasted with last week's post about a similar story in The Washington Post, a reader emails that I'm conflicted: Today's post about a story to warm your heart and a "but I really could have done without seeing that photograph" posted on 1/31/03--actually I found the photo to be touching--it was not as if it was celebrating their bodies, just their spirit and desire for intimacy. Ah, but the difference is that the story in no way forced a mental image on me of elderly couples having intercourse. The picture in the Post very explicitly did. (for those of you who missed it, it was a photo of a naked elderly couple embracing.) It elicited the same reaction that listening to Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton publicly describing their sex life used to give me. There are some mental images I'd just rather do without. posted by Sydney on 2/09/2003 04:51:00 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
