Literally every Canadian that was in the country while she was on air has either watched or listened to her show whether they’ll admit it or not. She truly was a public service legend with her matter of fact delivery of sex education and all related knowledge.

A rival of "Doctor Ruth"?

Never even heard of her.

So THAT was her name!

Some of my friends across from Windsor used to turn their antennas east just to catch her show, even though they would not openly admit it.

("Hey, Bro!  Why ya watchin' TV in the dark, huh?")

Sad that such a kind, caring, and honest person is no longer with us.  Canada, you have my sympathy.

i have vague memories of seeing her on "late night with david letterman" back in the day. when she said that there were no nerve endings in the upper 2/3rds, that goes against other research i've come across as well as what ob/gyn people [i worked with 'em in a hospital for 2+ decades] told me.
