Confessions of a Failed Slut: My NEW Taki’s column

I feel I can guarantee virtually “Joooo!!!” free comments, but it’s always hard to say…

Add to that my Catholic education, such as it was. Even in that post-Vatican II folk-Mass era, I still absorbed the barely articulated notion that sex was A Very Special Thing and not a consequence-free recreational activity like riding a rollercoaster (except in the nude).

As a result, my “number” (as the kids call it these days) is so low, I’m reliably informed that there are regions of the globe (such as certain Australian provinces) where I would still technically be considered a virgin.
