Wild horses… well, not exactly. More like tame pets… A few images from our fall camping trip to Assateague…where ‘wild’ horses live on the beach, walking among the campers and even sharing our water and facilities…
And then, there was Oprah’s show today… [http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/The-Original-Foxy-Brown/4]
Pam Grier talked about her life–today and during the period of time when she had starring roles in such shows as Foxy Brown. She also talked about relationships she has had, including with Richard Pryor.
As the Oprah show revealed, “After a gynecologist visit, Pam says she discovered Richard’s vices were affecting her too. She writes candidly about the experience with the hope of informing women who may be at risk. “There was an epidemic of a lot of people doing cocaine,” she says. “And it accumulated in the body and often in the prostate gland. It would come out during your sexual activity and [end up] inside a woman.”
Pam’s doctor cautioned her about the dangers of having unprotected sex with Richard. “[The cocaine] could harm the woman’s internal organs,” she says. “So I had to tell Richard, ‘You’re going to have to wear a raincoat—a condom.’ And he had an issue with that, and I said, ‘Well, it’s my life. You have to understand.’ So I chose me.”
Oprah said, “I did not know that–” in response to the revelation about the drugs ending up inside the woman… We have discussed such matters before http://whyhealthcommunication.com/whc_blog/wp-admin/post.php?post=295&action=edit
We can’t talk about ‘women’s reproductive health without talking about men’s reproductive health… and we can’t talk about men’s health without talking about women’s health…
