Sex Talk 3.6.05

Sex Talk 3.6.05

New York, New York is the center of the universe on this week's Sex Talk, as the UN gathers to review progress on women's rights and reaffirm the groundbreaking Beijing declaration of 1995. But the UN being the UN and the US being the US, week one of the two week Commission on the Status of Women meeting is not without drama. With hours of sessions to paw through, there's no featured interview this week -- look for more next Sunday.

As always, feedback is appreciated. Listener comment line is 206.338.3237, e-mail is rebeldad@gmail.com and I'm Skype-able at rebeldad
