Monique Roffey, author of 'With the Kisses of his Mouth' has written an interesting little piece in the Guardian today. She ponders why it is that women like her are willing tow rite openly about their sex lives, but few men feel able to do the same.

The Internet is cluttered with gay and bi men writing about their sex lives but these do not appear in 'commercial' texts so I wonder if this is actually a rather more complicated picture than Roffey suggests? Are straight men different in this regard? Thoughts?
I'd probably have some subtle disagreement on the 'privileged' comment but yes I agree on the broader comments about straight men. Although...it's interesting to think how the metrosexual male fits into this.
