Many readers think so; Ann ·' Landers IY9'7, Lol AllfCics Tlftla SyNiicllC and Cn:atlN\ s,..o;.... Dear Ann Landen: "Sexless in Canada" said she ended her 16-year marriage because she found sex "unhygienic and degrading." You wondered what had happened in her life to make her so ·bitter and suggested maybe it was her husband. not the .sex, that she couldn 'ttolerate. Blaming her husband does not help, and findi ng another man will not solve her problem, either. It's far more likely that her atti- tude toward sex was formed when she was very young. I know because I married a man who also finds sex unpleasant, disgusting and degrading. He felt that way with .his first wife, diuo with -several girlfriends (before and after his first marriage), and now with me. He is a loyal spouse and responsible father, but it's a lonely life I lead. This is not the kind of problem I can share with friends or family and still protect my husband's dignity. He started coun5eli' .g three years .ago and has made S;)me progress, but it's a slow, cos•:y and difficult road we are on. -- S ' in Conn. Dear S.L: You sound like an intelligent, patient woman. Hang in there, and give your husband as . much support as possible. AI least he's trying to correct the problem. that I can love someone without in its proper place -- a process of Many men wouldn't. That letter having sex. But it seems sad to me procreation, nothing more. Some from "Sexless in Canada" prod~ced that people feel safer in platonic derailed, sick minds have the pera fireStorm of mail: Here's what relationships. It may be safe, but it vertcd notion that sex should be some other rea~ad to say: certainly is lonely.

The increase could take place later this summer, although the commission urged that it be held off at least until January. "The commission is reluctantly granting the Postal Service request to raise the price of the first-class stamp from the present 32 cents to 33 cents," said Ed Gleiman, chairman of the commission. The commission chided the Postal Service for not delaying its request in order to provide more up-tCHiate information on costs and expenses.
