Physician Heal Thyself

Twenty-something years ago, I was at a party at the new house of some friends. They had just moved into this palatial residence:


I didn't know they had a pool, so I had not brought a swimming costume.



While standing around discussing with another guest whether we ought to skinny dip, a voice behind us joined in. When I turned around, I saw this guy:

Glenn Wilson



Well, he was 20+ years younger, and so was I , but he was short, dumpy and bearded. I was gorgeous, if I do say so myself.

He questioned me about various personal matters, including the proposed skinny dip, and whether I would have a bath with a partner.

I blew him off with a comment about my then boyfriend who, at 6'4", was far too tall to fit in my bath all by himself, let alone with me as well.

I was a bit gobsmacked. Later, I mentioned the conversation to someone else. "You know what he does, don't you?" No, I didn't. "He's a sex psychologist." !!!

Over the years, I have seen him proffer his expertise on TV several times, and always cringed.

The party-giver later told me the story of how, at their previous house, which had woodland behind it, he (a married man) had taken a likely lady into their woods, and his car got stuck in the mud. He had to call them out after midnight to help him release the vehicle.

What a creep.

I bet he wrote it himself.

    Sounds more like he's in that profession to take advantage of the ladies.

  5. I'll never understand why some people need a sex psychologist. What's so difficult about sex???
