“ee 46 - Wednesday, December 11, 1991 - North Shore News Q. MY PARTNER is ex- pecting something I can’t often give her. She doesn't want me to penetrate her unless I have a good erection. At my age, 52, good erections aren't 2s easy to get 2s they once were. However, [| can penetrate her when I'm semi-flaccid if ske will let me. We have to begin inter- course by moving slowly and carefully. The action of our movement then gives me a full erection and | am fine. Once I get there, I have no probiems sustaining the erection long enough to satisfy both of us. Why can't she just agree to de this my way? A. I don’t know why she can’t agrce, but if I had her here in my office, I would ask her. She is putting. too much emphasis on your erection. What she should do is let you penetrate while you are semi-flaccid. Perhaps it would heip if prior to penetration she touched your penis more. Maybe you need more manual stimulation from her. Ask her to help guide you inside her. “You are very fortunate that you can get a full erection once inside her vagina and maintain that erec- tion during: intercourse. Many younger men have problems sus- taining an erection during inter- course. You need to. acquaint your partner with the realities of male sexuality. Q. I took yeur advice — and my husband says I liked it too much! Throughout our marriage, | have had trouble achieving orgasm. This created some _ real problems for us for a while. Then I rerd your advice to another woman and I tried masturbating with a vibrator as you told her to do. Boy, did that work out fine! I would fike to use the vibrator sometimes during lovemaking with my husband, but he refuses. He finds the whole idea distasteful and intimidating. According to him, I should only use it in the privacy of the bedroom alone with the door tocked — preferably when he isa’t home. How can I persunce him to change his mind? A. First, tell him, ‘‘Honey, a vibrator can never replace your penis!” Maybe he needs to hear that. He could feel he is somehow inadequate because you can do things with the vibrator he wasn’t doing for you. : Some men are intimidated by the use of vibrators in lovemaking because they think their partners are more fond of the little machine than the penis. Give him plenty of reassur- ances, then tell him you will fulfill one of his sexual requests if he will try, just once, to include the vibrator in your lovemaking. United Way extends campaign THE UNITED: Way of the Lower Mainland (UWLM) is extending its 1991 campaign to year's end, in- a renewed effort io reach its goal of $17.5 million, -says volun- teer campaign’ chairman George Gaffney, senior vice-president and general manager of the Royal ‘Bank of Canada. : He reported that donations ‘‘in the bank”’ plus estimates of those still to come .from traditionally jate donors total $17 million, which is 97% of the goal. “his is nearly. $1 million more than was raised in 1990,” he said. “At 97% of our goal, we have still received more in donations from our community than ever before, and by any standards that. must be counted a success. How- ever, the 3% shortfall represents $500,000 that our agencies urgent- ly need to continue their services.

We real- ized this wouid be a real chalienge to achieve, but we also knew our agencies truly need the money.*” Despite ‘‘looking down the bar- rel of a recession,’’ volunteers es- tablished a very aggressive 6% in- crease over 1996 donations for the corporate sector, which represents approximately 25% of the overall campaign. _ Employee workplace campaigns ..account for -just over 60% of “donations, and Gaffney noted that goal-setting for this sector was ex- tremely difficult because of ’ layoffs. being experienced in many industries, _ particularly forestry, and unsettling conditions in the public service sector. jE ON: f ' Heel FANE : nic Dr. Ruth Westheimer ASK DR. RUTH LIFESTYLES Why can’t she agree to do it h Use it on the back of his neck to help relax him and to show him it isn’t something to fear! Q. My wife and I need you to settle a disagreement we are hav- ing about our son. He has recently had his ear pierced, which for me was the fast straw. I was afraid he had gone gay when he let his hair grow long and had it permed, but now I am sure of it. She says f am wrong. According to her, his long, pecmed hair and now his earrings are merely part of his ‘‘style.’’ Well, I call that style ‘‘homosexual.”” Our disagreements about this boy are ruining our own sex life. She keeps turning away from me in bed because she’s mad at me. What can I do about the situa- tion? TIRE & AUTO |.

A. You can keep your mouth shut about your son and his hair and earring if you ever want to have sex with your wife again! She is right when she says his hair and earring are simply ele- meats of his style. Things have changed since you and I were young. I can look out my office window and see young men wear- ing their hair every different length from short to very long. And some of them wear earrings and other jewelry. Besides, his sexual orientation is really none of your business. It should have no effect on your sex life. If you know these discussions upset your wife, [ don’t know why you keep having them. And aren’t such opinions driving a wedge between you and your son? mer Sample: P155 80R13 | PS * Rog. without GST 43.59 32°). _ WITHOUT GST 5.30 WITH GST § 62.383 : aut ANY CLEANER SERVICE CLEAN NOW: © For improved engine performance * Improve fuel economy ® Improve starting and quick engine response 8 Oy Most vehicles (vans extra) 4525. 49417 WITH GST (Cleaner & Labour) 925 Marine Drive, North Vancouver 988-5641 Tire & Auto Centre Hours Monday ta Wednesday Sam-6pm Thursday and Friday 8am-Spm Saturday 8am-Gom
