When Journalists Try Too Hard...
...to coin a term:
"Instead of trying to meet new men, I opened my address book and called up the guys I knew from high school, camp, and Jewish youth group. We’d make dates and reminisce, and sometimes the evenings would end in making out, or more. Though
my recycling, or blue-binning, didn’t lead to anything serious, it gave me the self-esteem I needed to start fresh."
—Amy Sohn,
The Devil You Know, New York magazine, current issue
Feel Sohn slog away as she tries to invent a term which will add to her reputation as a mistress of the zeitgeist....
I met Amy Sohn once, and in person she's quite sexy. But her "Mating" column in New York arrives at your doorstep every week with all the excitement of a wet newspaper. I'm sure it's not easy to write a good sex column once every seven days—not, mind you, that I've ever tried—but in all of New York City, can't Adam Moss find someone who makes sex, well, sexy?
