Should we be concerned about the behavior of those vixens on Sex In The City?? The three-year reign of Showtime's Sex In The City has made it such a popular show that many people plan their evenings around its Sunday-Tuesday debut each week. I can barely get my friends to join me at the upscale Eden Roc's beautiful new restaurant, Harry's Grille, until the show is completed (but the food prepared by Chef Klaus Mueller is always fresh so the wait is worth it, and since the show has such fresh concepts, that's worth watching too!). Vanessa, however, did pose the question while trying out Chef Mueller's incomparable veal chops, which was, "isn't the way those girls act…a little slutty?" Even Angela (who could barely take the time away from the fresh sushi) had to concur, "I think their conduct is certainly a little risky!" Let's examine the four characters and determine if indeed, their behavior is something that shouldn't necessarily be emulated. The show's main character is sexy and savvy "Carrie Bradshaw" (played to perfection by Sarah Jessica Parker who if you can believe it, was Broadway's first Annie!). In one steamy episode Carrie is found in bed with a politician who announces he'd like to have her urinate on him. To pee or not to pee? Leslie Miller, M.D. (Professor of OBGYN at the University of Washington) tells us "it's healthy to say no to things you don't want to do," while she also asserts, "it's not dangerous, however, for you to go ahead and let it rip, but remember, urine, like semen is a bodily fluid and could contain HIV and other bacteria so whether you're a giver or a taker, aim low (away from cuts, eyes, mouth and belly rings)." The wild attorney Miranda (played by Cynthia Nixon) in one episode declines to refill her Pill since she and her boy toy have split up. "I don't need any reminder that I'm not having sex," she demurs. Michael Burnhill, MD

(vice-president for Planned Parenthood of America) tells us, "don't throw out the pill just because you've lost the thrill!" If you stay on the pill you have reduced risk of endometrial or ovarian cancer and every time you restart the pill you are likely to get a surge of breast tenderness, nausea or bloating as your hormones adjust. Options to consider if giving up your little pal are IUD's, injectables and implants (which last up to 5 years). Sweet art-collector Charlotte (who is played by Kristin Davis who used to be such a vicious vixen on the now defunct Melrose Place) hooks up with a man in one episode known as "Mr. Pussy" for his expertise in the "oral arts." Can there be too much of a good thing? Dr. Burnhill says you can do pretty much what you want with this sexy cat, just make sure his lips and mouth are free from any open sores (evidence of herpes) - and make sure to temper this tasteful delight to just a few nights a week (studies have shown that women who receive oral sex five or more times a month are more likely to get licked by yeast infections!). Finally there is the sultriest sister of them all, Samantha (played to the hilt by Kim Cattrall) who has a boyfriend who uses Viagra for fun. After she tries one of his pills her own orgasms send her in search of more with an addictive frenzy. According to a spokesperson for Pfizer (the company that manufactures Viagra) - don't start popping these li'l blue diamonds if you are a woman, it's someone else's prescription and it isn't safe. If you want to pop anything, research shows pop in a scary video (really!) - fright stimulates women's sympathetic nervous systems which gets blood flowing to your genitals and prepares you for the big O-mah gosh. So keep in mind when watching some of those sexy sexcapades on television, this isn't for the kids at home, or you either!
