Understanding Desire

The Body's Own Rhythm
Many women notice that attraction is not a flat, constant thing. It rises and falls, sharpens and softens, moving with the rhythm of a body that is, whether we think about it often or not, built for reproduction. A woman who is happily married for years might find that in certain weeks she notices…
