No blog on menopause would be complete without a discussion of sex. When a husband and wife have been married as long as Larry and I have been, sex takes on a shorthand form.
Our conversations go something like this:
Larry: "Aaaargh?" (Do you want to have sex?)
Me: "Aaar." (Okay.)
Larry: "Uugh uugh." (Well, take your clothes off.)
Me: "Aaar." (Okay.)
With a minimum of grunting, he's communicated his needs and I've given my acquiesence. It's a system that has taken 39 years to refine. A few more years and we'll have it down to a raise of the eyebrows and a twitching of the nose. Ain't communication a wonderful thing?
Even more wonderful is the perfect groove....everyone knows exactly what everyone else needs/loves/enjoys............nudge-nudge-wink-wink----rock on Sistah!
