Today's NYT Magazine has a "The Way We Live Now" piece on vaginal plastic surgery, and other ridiculous genital beautifications women feel the need to undergo in order to be more appealing. Pardon me if I don't use time on the first day of what promises to be a lovely 2006 recording my outrage over the idea, especially since the usual suspects have already done a fine job. I only wanted to note the name of the author of the column: Daphne Merkin. Merkin. Merkin?!?
Tell me that someone informed her before getting her to write the piece. Please.
