FROM THE EDITOR
Smoke and mirrors at our Southern border KERITH GABRIEL I’m almost mad at myself for being surprised over Melania Trump’s fashion statement last week as she boarded a plane bound for Texas to view the people her husband’s Administration has herded like cattle into cages after they attempted to cross the border and seek asylum. You have border patrol ripping children from their parents, conservative pundits claiming it’s all being faked for the cameras and that the situation isn’t that bad, and our own First Lady – an immigrant from Eastern Europe, mind you – sporting a coat chock full of innuendo and insensitivity. You have people on social media defending this inhumanity by calling it an “Obama-era policyâ€? or “Clinton-era policy,â€? as if enacted by Democratic presidents diffuses the fact that it’s been enforced by a current commander-in-chief who has the authority to change it. To refer to a child who’s been ripped from their parent or smuggled to freedom a “child actorâ€? is frankly the most depressed and embarrassed I’ve been to live in a country that rests on the merits and laurels of being the “home of the free.â€? Meanwhile, detainees sleep on top of each other on the oor of these cages, given only a foil blanket, the same kind you’ve give a sweaty half marathoner upon ďŹ nishing, to offer privacy and cover. It’s one thing to suggest deportation, but why the need to separate and house these children until you ďŹ gure it out? Stripping toddlers from mothers and housing them with unfamiliar faces in an unfamiliar country, where authoritatively it appears no one gives a shit about you. I can’t imagine. I don’t want to imagine,
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
but if you are a person with even an ounce of dignity and compassion, how can you not? So we go through the rigamarole of it all, signing petitions, emailing senators, disrupting lavish fundraising dinners with a evening rush-hour protest. But what does it change? It’s almost like this Administration is doing things to make us not think about the atrocities at our Southern border. One example, just look at the major mainstream headlines and news coverage the next day. The top story was this stupid coat the First Lady wore, the manufacturer – Zara – that sold it and what really where her intentions? All of which I ask, frankly ‌ who gives a shit? I think the truly appalling thing here is that there is a complete loss of humanity. Again, I can’t speak for all, but how many of these people are truly criminals? You travel hundreds of miles across treacherous terrain with complete strangers, leave everything you’re accustomed to, to come to America and help drug cartels? Or become criminals? I think many of these so-called threats to our nation just want to live in a country that on the outside looking in offers so much more, and if that means working for little wages just to get established, like so many of us “legal immigrantsâ€? have done, then by all means. Do you really care if a family comes here and is willing to go through the hardship of living in someone’s basement while they can obtain asylum, get a work visa and get themselves a living wage? Don’t give me “these people are taking our jobs,â€? line either. Consider this: the current Administration has lost approximately 10,000 U.S. jobs to outsourcing since Trump’s election. So, despite a pledge to keep American work in America, this Administration is doling out offshore work. Sadly, it seems we live in a country where our leaders actively try to make a circus out of critical situations. But I suppose we did it to ourselves by virtue of electing a Ringling Bros.-level reality television star to serve as commander-in-chief. Q TWITTER: @SPRTSWTR

That’s how many days passed between the ďŹ rst School Reform Commission meeting (Dec. 28, 2001) and its ďŹ nal session last week (June 21, 2018), according to the Inquirer. The Commission voted to abolish itself in November, and this week, nearly 17 years after a state-controlled takeover, a local school board – appointed by the mayor – will resume power over the district’s 200,000 students and $3 billion budget.

V CTIMS OF THE HOT DOG LAUNCHER It’s not a sandwich (and don’t @ us). But is it an assault weapon? We’re talking about hot dogs, people. Or to be exact, the national tradition of catapulting them into crowds of sports fans. The Philadelphia Phillies’ beloved, green, shag carpet-skinned mascot made national headlines (again) this week after injuring Kathy McVay, a Phils’ fan from Montgomery County. McKay landed in the emergency room on Monday, June 18, after taking a high-velocity sausage to the face in the stands. Diagnosis: no concussion, but she went home with a considerable black-andblue shiner. On Twitter, Lindsey T. So, assistant director of the city’s Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy, proffered a point we’d be remiss not to boost here – hot dog gun violence is Philly’s new fans-throwing-snowballs-at-Santa.
Councilwoman Cherelle Parker joined the league of extraordinarily long-winded lawmakers last week during the tail end of City Council’s ďŹ nal marathon session before summer recess. Parker, a ďŹ rst-term lawmaker who represents the 9th District in Northwest Philadelphia, spoke against an antisquatting bill for nearly half an hour without interruption. City Council members often take their time to reect on why they’re voting this way or that on a particular bill before the actual vote – but 26 minutes? When time came to vote on the bill, Parker voiced a “yesâ€? vote before realizing her mistake and quickly changing it to a “no.â€? Council’s chambers promptly erupted with laughter. Q

The work of Isaiah Zagar on the building that houses the Painted Bride Art Center on 230 Arch St., could receive historic designation after a hearing on July 13. However the Bride’s Board and leadership group is fighting to make sure that doesn’t happen.
Battle for the Bride Artists and the lovers of art alike wage awkward war over next steps for iconic Old City theater BY KERITH GABRIEL

hey ďŹ led in and ďŹ lled the room. Some wore buttons of support that read “THIS PLACE MATTERS,â€? while some came with the expressed goal of seeing that place sold to start anew. The tension in the air? Palpable conveyed by scoffs, eye rolls and side conversations during individual testimony. This wasn’t a high proďŹ le case, but it did hold the same amount of drama. On June 20, a preliminary hearing for the designation of the building that houses the iconic Painted Bride Art Center convened in a stuffy room

on the 18th Floor of 1515 Arch St. Some want the Painted Bride, located just 13 blocks east on the 200 block of Arch and its colorful mosaic facade created by noted Philadelphia artist Isaiah Zagar to remain intact. Zagar, 79, took in the proceedings himself sitting quietly in the front row of the onlookers, pen and paper in hand, sketching the scene that played out before him. Sprinkled among the crowd of support for Zagar’s mural, sat a contingent of support for the Painted Bride and goal to thwart the notion of historic designation. Instead, the Bride hopes to sell the building and use the proceeds to create more community based arts – a more nomadic organization that would host

events in other venues as opposed to having a formal home. After much testimony on both sides, a panel of three judges unanimously agreed to the suggest the ofďŹ cial nomination of the Painted Bride for historical designation, highlighting all four of the criteria, (E, F, H, J) listed in an application for designation as valid. Now, the Bride’s leadership will have to once again prove that its mission of providing a diverse array of arts is worth more than its iconic building artists are out to save when both parties go before the historic commission panel on July 13. However, the initial recommendation to designate from the three-person panel already felt like a loss to some. “I can’t even begin to tell you how this decision drastically affects our mission to bring arts and culture to the community,â€? Joan Sloan, who serves as board chairman for the Painted Bride told PW following the hearing. “We want to be able to impact neighborhoods that don’t normally have access to these kinds of programs.â€? Backdoor battle Who you believe really depends on which side you’re on. The forms to get the Painted Bride designated was compiled and crafted by Emily Smith, the executive director of Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens, the organization serving in full support of Zagar’s work and home to Zagar’s mosaic wonderland on 1020 South St. Smith, ďŹ led the 28-page form in December. But according to Sloan, she nor anyone within the Bride’s leadership even knew of plans to ďŹ le for designation until March, giving the Bride a few months to scramble before the June 20 preliminary hearing. “We were blindsided by this,â€? said Sloan. “[Philadelphia Magic Gardens] ďŹ led [the designation form] in December, we didn’t ďŹ nd out about this until March, when we were in the midst of negotiations. Had we had a conversation up front, we wouldn’t be in this situation. The only conversation was one with [Smith] and she just said ‘we have to preserve this art no matter what.’ You mean the art that’s on a building of a street where nobody sees it? There’s hardly any foot trafďŹ c, there’s no restaurants, there’s nobody seeing [the] building.â€? With the two sides sticking to a hard stance, the question now is will the July 13 panel deem Zagar’s work more valuable than the community arts outreach the Painted Bride claims it can do with the proceeds of the sale. Sloan says that while the Bride’s wide-ranging displays and performances are diverse, the neighborhood where its building rests simply is not. “The amount of money we would be able to get from the sale of this building increases signiďŹ cantly the work we could do throughout the community,â€? said Sloan. “Look, it’s been shown that black and hispanic children have half of the access [to the arts] as their
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
NEWS white peers and in neighborhoods that really need the arts, like the neighborhoods our new mission would impact, just aren’t getting it.â€? Sloan also said that there were also conversations suggesting that Zagar’s mural could be preserved digitally in some form, through either video or animation, but that was simply “not up for discussionâ€? with the Magic Gardens’ executives. But it’s a very different story in the eyes of Smith, who noted that Magic Gardens has offered to take care of any restorations the building needed in perpetuity, but that the Bride has never come to them to “take care of the space in anyway, shape or form.â€? “I have had some conversations with [Painted Bride executive director] Laurel [Raczka] and the Board of the Bride, and their priority is not to preserve the mural,â€? Smith told PW during a phone conversation in late May. “They want to leave the building and they need as much money as possible for the dream that they want to have, but because their intent has never been to preserve the mural, our discussions have never been about how we can preserve, and it’s our job to make sure that Zagar’s work stays intact considering the work of art that it is.â€? Art, for the greater good It’s apparent that both sides believe Zagar’s work is iconic. But the question of it being synonymous with the mission of the Painted Bride is what has caused controversy – largely between lovers of his art. Some in the room, questioned how anyone can value Zagar’s mural – one of more than 200 located throughout Philadelphia – as more important than the Bride’s mission to use the proceeds from the sale to create more inner-city programming. The Painted Bride long contends that all proceeds from the sale would do just that and Sloan told PW that the funds would serve as the jumpstart of an endowment to ensure the organization’s revamped mission long term. On the other hand, the idea that a collection of artists and art lovers could OK one of Zagar’s works for demolition, knowing inevitably it would be replaced with the continuing collection of gaudy and unappealing condominiums changing Philadelphia’s skyline is truly the bigger crime. “What a strange time we live in,â€? Richard Snyderman, a former member of the Bride’s board and a current Old City resident said during his testimony in front of the panel. “[Zagar’s murals] are an equivalent of a national landmark...I ďŹ nd it extraordinary, truly extraordinary...that an arts organization is advocating the destruction of an iconic work of art.â€? On the ip side, Carol Finkel, a self-proclaimed Bride devotee since its South Street origins in the late 1960s testiďŹ ed in front the panel, telling the tale of a family raised on Bride shows following the organization at each of its locations – including its current
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
home. With a crackling voice that sounded on the verge of tears, Finkel said: “[The] Painted Bride is iconic in the world of arts and culture in our city,â€? Finkel said. “My deaf kids and I have been going there for years, it has been a staple in the community, but it’s been their programming that keeps people coming back, that me and my family staying in the city when everyone ed to the suburbs. The Painted Bride has kept us coming back all these years. Not a building, not a mural. Your decision [to designate as a historic site] could change all that. I just hope in the end the right choice is made.â€? Q TWITTER: @SPRTSWTR

Back, with more Fringe FringeArts announces curated performances for 2018 Fringe Festival
IMAGE COURTESY: FRINGEARTS
Last year, Thaddeus Phillips’ A Billion Nights on Earth captivated as one of FringeArts curated shows. Late last week, the organization responsible for the annual city wide festival released its rundown of 2018 performances.
-81( -8/<
re your Fringe-senses tingling? FringeArts recently revealed its curated list of performances for 2018 Fringe Festival, with free and priced tickets now available. While the contemporary arts festival is a few months away and has more than 100 performances still unannounced, this is your ďŹ rst sneak peek at what is to come for the 22nd year of the annual Fringe Festival, running Sept. 6 through 23. Over the two-weeks of international, national and local performances, audiences have a chance to experience a dozen-plus of the FringeArts’ hand-picked shows. From disco-dancing through the exhibits of the Philadelphia Museum of Art with “The Museum Workoutâ€? to having a Syrian refugee draw their story on your arm with “As Far As My Fingertips Take Me,â€? FringeArts has outdone itself in bringing an eclectic assortment of thought-provoking artists to Philly. Inspired by the OG Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland, Philly’s version began in 1997 and has since become a tour-de-force in its own right and a staple of the city’s art scene. Like Philly, other cities across the globe have also adopted the Fringe Festival platform, albeit independent organizations. According to the Communications Coordinator of FringeArts Hugh Wilkofsky, the Philly festival has no formal lines of communication with its parent and sister Fringe Festivals. When it came to curating this year’s performances, in true FringeArts fashion, it was executed with an “anti-curatorialâ€? approach – a phrase borrowed from FringeArts President and Producing Director Nick Stuccio. “It’s much more about gathering the works that excite us most, that are really relevant to our current moment, and also just what’s available,â€? said Wilikofsky. “You have to be practical and pragmatic about it too. We don’t set out to make a festival in any particular way, but we just see these things emerge as the shows come together.â€? However, one of the performers who was certainly intentional is German composer and internationally acclaimed artist Heiner Goebbels. Goebbels will be making his Philadelphia debut at the Fringe Festival with multiple works, including “Songs of Wars I Have Seen,â€? a concert that intertwines writer Gertude Stein’s words with live music by members of the Philadelphia Orchestra and Tempesta di Mare, and “Stifters Dinge,â€? a concerted performance without actors or performers – as the website describes, a true “no man show.â€? “[Stuccio] saw these pieces when they premiered and has been eager to bring them here for almost a decade. This is the culmination of a long time of trying to coordinate that and ďŹ gure out how we can make that happen,â€? Wilikofsky relayed. Another big-hitter artist who will be presenting multiple works – ďŹ ve to be exact – is
Lebanese performance artist Tania El Khoury. El Khoury is the mastermind of the aforementioned “As Far As My Fingertips Take Me,â€? a one-on-one performance, or more appropriately a one-on-arm performance, where a persons stick their arm through a gallery wall for a Syrian refugee to graphically pen their story. “She’s bringing a bunch of different works. A large part of her work, and all the work she’s bringing to the festival, deal with political upheaval, speciďŹ cally in the Mideast where she is from, and the Syrian uprising and the ongoing fallout that comes with it,â€? explained Wilikofsky. El Khoury will also be presenting one of her most famed pieces, “Garden Speak,â€? a work Wilikofsky states you have “to become present in to activate.â€? In the interactive sound installation, audience members will don a black poncho and dig through dirt to retrieve one of 10 audio recordings about 10 real Syrian activists and citizens who were buried in Syrian gardens. With the help of friends and family, each recording is reconstructed to recreate their loved one’s ďŹ nal moments. “[Goebbels and El Khoury are examples of the] kind of presentation we don’t do very often, which is [installations-based] and highly participatory,â€? said Wilikofsky. “That’s sort of emblematic of a lot of the shows this year. It’s a lot of participatory shows where either the audiences, like in Goebbels’ case, are asked to decode and ďŹ nd their meaning or, in El Khoury‘s case, literally make the piece happen.â€? In positive news for the state of arts programming – a deďŹ nite rarity – Wilikofsky has noted a considerable increase in interest by other organizations in the local community. “A lot of our presentations this year are copresentations with the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Drexel University, Christ Church Preservation Trust, Annenberg Center Live and Bryn Mawr College. That, to me, is a sort of a continuation of [this] festival’s legacy, which is connecting artists around the city,â€? Wilikofsky stated. “This interconnectedness of the entire cultural scene here in Philly, I think that is still somewhat rare for these growing festival platforms.â€? While those on the fringe of society probably have already checked out to claim tickets to these wildly unique experiences, Wilikofsky afďŹ rms there is still a lot to be revealed, such as the the independent performances and the post-festival Feastival, which brings together top chefs to beneďŹ t FringeArts. “I think what makes the festival special is sort of the half that we haven’t quite announced yet,â€? Wilikofsky divulged. “It’s sort of this opportunity to see a mix of some of the best and most renowned international artists alongside all of our home grown talent here in Philadelphia.â€?

OPINION
DA Krasner should investigate claims of Kensington cops misusing Narcan
PHOTO: MAX MARIN
There’s a claim to suggest that some police first responders use Narcan as an easy fix on people who use drugs – many who actually aren’t even overdosing.
JILLIAN BAUERREESE
E
arlier this month, the Philadelphia District Attorney’s OfďŹ ce requested nearly 10 years of violations from the city’s police department to compile a list of cops who have used excessive force, racially proďŹ led, violated civil rights or lied while on duty. I commend Larry Krasner’s efforts to reform Philly’s criminal justice system and ask his ofďŹ ce to investigate one issue in particular: whether police ofďŹ cers – speciďŹ cally those in the Kensington districts – are administering the overdose reversal medication Narcan to people who are not actually overdosing.
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
In late April, the news publication Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Weekly published an article titled, “Police ofďŹ cers and naloxone: Saving lives with taxpayer dollars requires oversight.â€? The day it was published, ADAW tweeted, “The Philadelphia naloxone program, in hands of police, may need some correction especially in Kensington.â€? But due to the publication’s limited scope, nobody in Philadelphia seemed to notice. The ADAW story is centered around allegations that an ofďŹ cer administered Narcan to a woman who was standing and breathing near the corner of Kensington and Somerset. Lisa Kelley, an artist who teaches in Kensington, shared the same account with me that she shared with ADAW. According to Kelley, last summer she spotted a woman who was nodding off and having trouble standing. Kelley stood with her and called to a nearby ofďŹ cer – a white, husky male who looked to be in his early 50s – for help in preventing the woman from falling. However, when he approached them, he ig-
nored Kelley, reached into his pocket, and a female police ofďŹ cer sitting on a woman’s chest to restrain her as the ofďŹ cer adminispulled out Narcan. Kelley told the ofďŹ cer the woman didn’t tered Narcan. The person who shared that need Narcan because she was awake, stand- story with my student, like Kelley, does outing and breathing. But despite Kelley’s at- reach in the neighborhood.

MUSIC
‘Through the fire’ Strong planning and execution aided in Philadelphia’s recognition of Juneteenth
at Penn’s Landing and featured a multitude of live performances, vendors and children’s activities. Philadelphia’s iteration of the Juneteenth Musicfest, commenced in 2016, birthed after the cultural committee at the PCOL decided to come up with a cultural calendar to highlight signiďŹ cant African-American holidays and events throughout the year. According to Gamble, Juneteenth was suggested as one of the events to be commemorated. The committee later tapped political activist and organizer KoďŹ Asante, who was already instrumental in planning other cultural events in the city, as an executive producer. In addition to hosting the Juneteenth Festival every year, Gamble also explained the PCOL also started a petition to make Juneteenth a state holiday, with hopes of it eventually being recognized nationally. “[We want] not only African Americans but people from all ethnic backgrounds to understand to what happened to the AfricanAmerican people in this country,â€? he said. “Everyone wants freedom, but it’s something that you have to keep ďŹ ghting for. That’s what we want our people to do.â€? Q TWITTER: @DA7THLETTER

M
ore than a century and a half ago, the news of slavery’s abolition made its way to Texas. This historic moment in U.S. history birthed a holiday named Juneteenth, the oldest known celebration commemorating the end of slavery. This year marked the third consecutively Philadelphia held its own celebration as a collective of city ofďŹ cials and the Philadelphia Community of Leaders returned to the Juneteenth Musicfest & Parade. Kenny Gamble, famed music producer and songwriter, who also heads the PCOL, was joined by Mayor Jim Kenney and a host of other dignitaries at the ceremony. Recognized nationally each year on June 19, Juneteenth commemorates the date in

1865 Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news the war had ended and the enslaved African Americans were set free, more than two and a half years after the release of President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, according to juneteenth.com. “What we wanted to do was remind ourselves and remind everyone else of the horriďŹ c treatment that was given to our ancestors,â€? Gamble told PW in a recent interview. “We’ve been through the ďŹ re in this country and we’ve survived it all. In my opinion, I think that Philadelphia represents the birthplace of America. When you go down to 5th and Market or 6th and Market and you start to look at the history of the city, you see that there’s tremendous political history here. For us to attach Juneteenth to this political atmo-
sphere here, I think it’s a great thing.� Removed from Germantown, this year’s celebration took over Center City in a two-day event that featured a wreath-laying ceremony at the President’s House in Independence Mall honoring the nine slaves who worked at the residence while President Washington resided there. Performances from the Evelyn Graves Singers, and the Philadelphia Heritage Chorale and readings from poet Sonia Sanchez completed the day. On Saturday, the celebration continued with a parade that began at 15th Street and John F. Kennedy Boulevard and featured 3,000 participants, including marching bands, drill teams, the Tuskegee Airmen and the Boy Scouts of America. Most noticeably was the replica slave ship oat that traveled through the parade route. The procession concluded

y the time you’re reading this, you should already be fasting in advance of the day-drinking, grill-cooking goodness that is July 4 in Philly. There’s always a ton of stuff to do, and this year, more than ever, we at PW personally feel compelled to celebrate harder than ever, to suppress our crushing horror at the state of American nationalist politics more than ever with as much food and drink and ďŹ reworks as possible. Because what’s more American than containing multitudes? Here’s the rundown.
HIGHďšşEND VIEWS
Assembly Rooftop Lounge
Want good sightlines of the Parkway from the bird’s eye view? The ninth-oor Assembly Rooftop Lounge is the best option for the deep-pocketed crowd. (We won’t be there.) It’s two Benjamins per person and a nonrefundable reservation is required. | July 4. $200. The Logan Hotel. 8 pm. Logan Square, facebook.com/theloganhotel
The Loews Hotel and Bank & Bourbon If you’re planning on dropping a few hundred on a steak dinner for the holiday, Bank & Bourbon is offering access to its 33rd oor vista for ďŹ reworks on Sat., June 30, and Wed., July 4. Viewing is open to diners and hotel guests only. | Sat June 30 and Wed. July 4. Prices vary. 8:30 pm. The Loews Hotel. 1200 Market Street. bankandbourbon.com
3+,/$'(/3+,$:((./< &20
The Seaport Museum
Want an amazing view of the night’s ďŹ reworks without dropping a few hundred bucks? The Independence Seaport Museum offers an all-day vantage point from the top of the rotunda. Sure, you can catch the ďŹ reworks for free at any one of the piers on the Delaware, but if you’re looking to do it up this year, it’s a cheaper option than the rooftop lounges. | June 30 and July 4, 10am. $12$17. Independence Seaport Museum, 211 S. Columbus Blvd. phillyseaport.org/fireworks
hood across the city, but if you’re looking to save a buck our recommendation: Kensington and Fairhill. North Philly’s ďŹ reworks display makes the Parkway look like a glowstick party.
LIGHTSHOW ON A BUDGET
Lemon Hill
This is one of the most-cited spots for the Parkway lightshow – with a high elevation and a primo skyline view. Plus, you can bring your own grill. Directions: Plug Lemon Hill Drive into your Google Maps, it’s located between Kelly and Poplar drives northwest of the Art Museum.
Paine’s Park
Skateboarder or not, you can skirt around the masses on the Parkway and still get a primo view of the ďŹ reworks display from Paine’s Park, located at Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and Ben Franklin Parkway in the shadow of the Art Museum.
Stay in the hood
There’s plenty of trash to talk about the panelled, spaceship-looking single-family homes cropping up in gentrifying neighbor-

SAVAGE LOVE
Both and baggage DAN SAVAGE
W
hen I started dating my husband, he told me he had a low libido. I said I could deal with that. We waited several months before having sex, and then after we started, it was infrequent and impersonal. There was some slow improvement over the three years we dated. Then we got married, and suddenly he had no libido at all. He blamed health problems and assured me he was trying to address them. Despite being diagnosed and successfully treated for multiple physical and mental health issues over time, things only got worse. After four years of marriage, the relationship has become strictly platonic. I can’t even start a conversation about intimacy without him getting irritated. After we married, he also decided he no longer wanted children, and I eventually convinced myself it was probably for the best, given his health. We built our dream home, adopted a pet, and built an outwardly successful life together. I was, if not happy, at least complacent. Until I ran into an exboyfriend at a party. We split many years ago on good terms. We ended up talking about how important it is to him to have a biological child—something we talked about a lot when we were dating—and we got physically close, and that got me thinking about how much I missed sex with him. Ever since, I’ve been thinking about him. I think he was hinting that he wants me back, and right now that sounds like the answer to all my problems. But if not, I don’t want to leave my hubby and lose the decent life we built together. Plus, my leaving would hurt my husband’s feelings, his health, and his ďŹ nances. I also worry that people would blame me because it will look like I left because things were tough. Can I follow up and clarify with my ex before I break it off with my husband, or is that too much like cheating? Is it selďŹ sh of me to even consider leaving at this point? I’m a 30-yearold woman, so I don’t have a lot of time left to decide about children. – Indecisively Married Dame On Nearing Exit Here’s something I’ve never seen in my inbox: a letter from someone explaining how
-81( -8/<
sex with their partner was infrequent, impersonal, uninspired, unimaginative, etc. at ďŹ rst but—holy moly—the sex got a fuck of a lot better after the wedding! Now, maybe that happens—maybe that happened for you, dear reader (if so, please write in)—but I can’t imagine it happens often. So, boys and girls and enbies, if the sex isn’t good at or very near the beginning, the passage of time and/ or muttering of vows isn’t going to ďŹ x it. If sex is important to you—if you wouldn’t be content in a companionate marriage and/or don’t want to wind up in divorce court one day—hold out for someone with whom you click sexually. Okay, IMDONE, either your husband married you under false pretenses—putting out/in just enough to convince you to marry him and only pretending to want kids—or his good-faith efforts to resolve his health issues didn’t help (at least where sex is concerned) and he changed his mind about being a dad (perhaps because he doesn’t feel healthy enough to do the work of parenting). Either way, you’re free to go. Even if the sex was good and your husband wanted 30 kids, you’d still be free to go. And while that convo could be regarded as pre-cheating or cheating-prep or even cheating-adjacent, it isn’t cheating. You married someone who unilaterally changed the terms and conditions of your marriage—no sex, no kids—and you have an absolute right to think through your options. And a husband who won’t even discuss intimacy with you can’t ask you to refrain from contemplating or even discussing intimacy with one of those options. Whether you have that convo with your ex or not, IMDONE, you need to ask yourself if you want to stay in this marriage. You’re only 30 and you wanted and still want kids. Exboyfriend or no ex-boyfriend, you can leave your husband—and you can leave him without abandoning him. You can still be there for him emotionally, you can offer what help you can ďŹ nancially, and you can help him secure health insurance. Finally, IMDONE, you frame your choice as the husband or the ex—one or the other— but there is another option. It’s the longest of long shots, I realize, but I’m going to toss it out there anyway: one or the other or both. Your husband would have to agree to an open relationship, and your ex-boyfriend – if, again, he’s interested at all—would have to agree to it, too. Good luck.

What They Are Saying: “Kathy and Patrick helped my mother sell her home in what turned out to be a very complex and lengthy transaction due to the buyer’s ďŹ nancing arrangements and other particulars. No matter when we called Kathy & Patrick they took our calls or responded to messages promptly. This was very stressful for all of us, especially Mom, but Kathy and Patrick helped her to stay the course and see it through to closing. God bless them!!!! ~ “Karen Oruska
