Don:
You posting was very appropriate and I don't think anyone would
quarrel with frank discussions of sex on this list. Both PWP's
and caregivers for PWP's will likely find it a topic of interest.
Your second paragraph above describes very well the professional
attitude and approach that should be the object of any discussion
of this nature.
Many of us find ourselves in the same role as you explained and
understand the basic human requirement for sexual experience in
a loving relationship. Wholesome discussions let us understand
that we are not alone and that our feelings are not 'abnormal'.
You need not feel limited in your discussion here as far as I
am concerned since I believe you will approach the topic with
the courtesy of a gentleman which should not offend any of the
list readership.
Best Wishes.......Jack
