Who Needs a Vagina? Gayle Israel

Women of a certain age may ask themselves, "Why am I still in the kitchen?" or "Is there life after menopause?" or "What's left to talk about with my husband?" Welcome to Who Needs a Vagina?-Gayle Israel's uplifting memoir and guidebook for women ages 60 and beyond. Reflective, humorous, and heartfelt, this book takes readers on a journey through the "new normal" of the modern-day Golden Generation-from coping with your kids leaving home (and celebrating your grandchildren's arrival!), to recharging your emtional batteries, to reconnecting with yourself and having your voice heard. A former mental health therapist, Gayle says, "We all need a shoulder, a hug, a laugh, and most definitely a glass of wine!" This book provides all of that (sans the wine) as it explores love, marriage, raising kids, friendships, losses, gains, and the transitions women go through as wives, mothers, sisters, and friends.
