Dear Ann Landers,
am in agreement with your "Atlanta Reader" who is in his 60s. He criticized you for printing too many letters about sex and referred to himself as "one who had been neutered by time." He asked that you print fewer letters in your column dealing with problems of frigidity, im-potence, incest, homosexuals, truck drivers who wear pantyhose, and Funny Uncles. You told him time doesn't neces-sarily have to "neuter" anybody-that it was mostly in his head, etc. Al-though you are probably correct I would like to tell you that I'm a woman, and I agree with him. I'm glad to be free of "that old feeling." I'd have a real problem if the fires were still burning. I'm a widow (also in my 60s) and although I'm still hale and hearty I no longer need sex. There are so many of us, Ann (some married to men who can't per-form). We consider ourselves fortu-nate that Mother Nature has dealt with us in this manner. It's like losing your appetite for caviar when you can no longer afford it. So, as the kids say, "Cool it, honey." BASTA AMOUR

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
