Aw man, I can feel a rant coming on.  Here’s one comment/letter from a reader:

Is it ever okay to tangle with a married guy?

Letter:

Five emasculating behaviors to avoid

Got this interesting letter recently:
Dr. Alex,
I am in the midst of a separation initiated by my husband.  I don’t want a divorce.  He says the main reason we cannot live together is because of what he calls my “emasculating behaviors”.  He claims I may not even be aware of when I am doing “it”, but [...]
