This week, the questions are geared toward those who are single again and have no children living at home. Next week, we'll turn the focus to those who have never been married.

—Has your sex life become freer, less inhibited, less routine since becoming single again? (About 55 percent said yes.)

—Why are you single again? (About 79 percent were divorced; 16.5 percent were widowed; 4.1 percent were separated.)

This week, the questions are geared toward those who are single again and have no children living at home. Next week, we'll turn the focus to those who have never been married.

—Has your sex life become freer, less inhibited, less routine since becoming single again? (About 55 percent said yes.)

—Why are you single again? (About 79 percent were divorced; 16.5 percent were widowed; 4.1 percent were separated.)

—How long were you married? (About 60 percent said over 10 years.)

—Have you revised your definition of promiscuity since becoming single? (About half said yes.)

—Have you adopted more of a live-and-let-live outlook since your own life changed? (About 55 percent said yes.)

—For how long have you been single again? (About 76 percent said over 10 years.)

If you agree there's plenty of meat here to chew on, feel free to write your personal reactions to these questions and send them to me so we can hash them out together. I suspect that not enough attention has been given to the effects of lifestyle on the private parts (no pun intended?) of single life.
