‘Dr. Ruth’ Westheimer dies at age 96 after decades of dispersing frank advice about sex
The diminutive ‘sexpert’ who helped Americans talk more openly about sex has died at age 96, joking on social media until near the end.
“Dr. Ruth,” Westheimer, the diminutive sexpert whose heavy German accent and straight talk about sex on radio and TV brought frank discussion about relationships into American pop-culture, has died. She was 96.
Known as “Dr. Ruth” for her books and radio and TV appearances, Westheimer died at her home Friday in New York City. It was announced Saturday by her frequent co-author and spokesman Pierre Lehu, The New York Times and The Washington Post reported.
Westheimer’s survivors include two children and four grandchildren.
DONALD
TRUMP
IS UNFIT
TO LEAD
Next week, for the third time in eight years, Donald Trump will be nominated as the Republican Party’s candidate for president of the United States. A once great political party now serves the interests of one man, a man as demonstrably unsuited for the office of president as any to run in the long history of the Republic, a man whose values, temperament, ideas and language are directly opposed to so much of what has made this country great.
