Menopause Is About To Get Sexy!

Can there be a woman on Earth (or at least in this Hemisphere) who hasn't seen an episode or a season of the TV show, Sex and the City? I was never a fan of the show starring Sarah Jessica Parker, but friends dragged me to the film when it came out and I have to admit, it was fun.
