Who Is Gennifer Flowers?
The Clintons must have one hell of a green thumb because this is one flower that refuses to wilt. Gennifer Flowers, the former model and lounge singer who became notorious after her affair with Bill Clinton over two decades ago, is back with a vengeance. Donald Trump, never one to shy away from controversy, tweeted to his millions of followers that he would be extending an invitation to the ex-mistress to the first Presidential debate between him and Hillary Clinton. With all the dirty politics happening so far in this election, are we surprised? Not really. But who really is Gennifer Flowers, and what role does she play in this election—almost 20 years after Bill Clinton admitted to his affair with her? Flowers has said publicly she’ll accept the invitation from Donald Trump (shocking, really...) to sit in the front row of the presidential debate.

Sexism in Language
Language is sexist. It has never met the equality needs of women. As gender issues move to the forefront of society's eye, it will continue to combat equality. A male-dominated language cannot meet the needs of those whose gender identities do not "fit" the bifurcated mold it perpetuates. Society must stop turning a blind eye to male-centric language and pronouns, and focus on speaking in a way that victimizes no one. But how do we edit a language that has been around for centuries?

H.J. Eysenck Interview. Created with: OG Collection.
A psychologist with an international reputation, both as author and as a leader of the behaviorist school, Professor Hans Jurgen Eysenck was director of the Institute of Psychiatry at London's Maudsley hospital. A prolific popularizer, he wrote more than a dozen books expounding aspects of his absorbing subject (Uses and Abuses of Psychology, etc.) and he is particularly remembered for his paperbacks of intelligence tests. To professional colleagues, he is an eloquent repudiator of Freud and an indefatigable researcher into the mechanics of personality.

Drugs, Sex & Money on Wall Street
Too much money isn’t always a good thing. Back in the 1980s, Wall Street gave rise to a notorious New York City subculture whose principal goals were sex, drugs, and lots of money. That disconnect between material success and personal happiness was a byproduct of the opulent materialism of the decade. The 21st century ushered in an era of scrutiny and overt criticism of the decades of excess that led to a near collapse of the financial system starting in 2008. There is a feeling on modern Wall Street that you work harder for less money, and a lot less fun. When it comes to a cautionary tales of excess from the 1980s, most of us are inclined to refer to Martin Scorsese's Wolf of Wall Street starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The realities of Wall Street decadence are rarely aired in public. All too often, in a society of consumer pleasuring and narcissistic social media addicts, cautionary tales like that of Philip Hehmeyer, who was the subject of Peter McCabe’s article on sex, drugs, and money in the world of finance originally published in the February 1985 issue of Penthouse magazine, get a revisionist makeover by a society that admires Gordon Gekko and aspires to party like Jordan Belfort.

Sheila Kennedy Interview
From commanding attention on magazine covers to invading your TV, Sheila Kennedy has held her own in the media world for the past few decades. She graced the covers of various Penthouse issues, leading her to be named Penthouse Pet of the Month in December of 1981 and then Pet of the Year in 1983. But it was during this time that she also aspired to be an actress. She decided to make her dream a reality in 1984 when she auditioned for a role in Ellie and landed the part. She continued to act in movies such as the First Turn-On! and Spring Break, which also starred another former pet, Corinne Alphen. She even shot a scene with Johnny Depp in Don Juan De Marco in 1995 but, to the dismay of her fans, the nude scenes were cut from the movies before it hit theaters.

Xaviera Hollander Interview
"I always say I can do without a man for about 24 hours. Then I go hunting." Such a statement, so openly and unhesitantly made, could only have come from Xaviera Hollander—deported madam, polysexual sensualist, and bestselling author of the autobiographical The Happy Hooker. Hollander operated, with a blend of business flair and sexual fervor, the most successful brothel in New York City. Observant and articulate, she also grew to see her two years of catering to customer's desires as a personal service, as well as a way to make money, and herself as an intimate therapist, as well as a prostitute. As she tells in her book, she readily acceded to demands of every kind, however way-out, enjoying making people happy and being paid for "something I'd have been doing anyway."

Languages of Love
Language is one of the most inhibiting factors in love play. There comes a moment when every American or English male traveling abroad sees a girl to whom he wishes to say something to the following effect: "Mademoselle... Fräulen... Signorina, you are exquisite. Only the pre-Raphaelites could have caught your eyes, your lips, your hair. Your laughter is as that of distant cowbells on verdant hills, and the Georgian poets alone could have described you, oh moon of my delight that knows no wane…"

Can Consensual Adultery Lengthen Your Life?
Dr. Lenore R. Zohman, a cardiologist of New York's Montefiore Hospital, reported that a majority of men who die during intercourse do so while engaging in extramarital sex. Sounds a lot like downright bad luck. Imagine your spouse finding you dead and naked while on top of someone else. At least fate got to you before your wife did. Or perhaps the victims didn't know that adultery can be fatal if it is combined with fear, anxiety or guilt. Or with heavy drinking. As a physician, I many coronary patients who enjoy adultery and whose condition has actually improved because they engage in consensual adultery.

How to Revive a Failing Relationship
Must an emotional cure always be a long job? When I'm asked this I generally answer that any basic personality change usually entails working your ass off at helping yourself over a period of time. Psychology and behavioral responses to conditioned activity play an important role in reviving failing relationships. Various experiments with clients are making me qualify this answer. They indicate that there are palliative methods which, if you employ them continually, tend to sink into your cognitive-emotive core and become curative—a permanent part of your behavioral pattern. In my book Rational Sensitivity: Self-fulfillment for Executives, I was able to give three such self-therapy techniques for calming the emotions. Here is how they work.

What Is Your Sexual Personality?
The sexual adjustment and behavior patterns, often referred to as sexual personality, of human beings are probably more varied and divergent than almost any other aspect of their diversity. Scientific interest has hitherto centered either on abnormalities, which have been exhaustively studied in the form of case histories and anecdotes by psychiatrists and psychoanalysts, or a census-type data collected on large samples, "broken down," as the saying goes, by age and sex—Kinsey's work is an example of this type of approach. We learn from published data that Americans on the average have intercourse two to three times a week, but this kind of information is almost useless when it is realized that some people have intercourse once a month, while others have intercourse several times a night—the wife of the "Boston strangler" complained that her husband insisted on having intercourse something like 14 times a day! ("Complained" is the operative word—some women might have welcomed such dutiful attendance.)
