McManus notes NORC studies show 2 percent of women and 5 percent of men admit sex outside marriage in a year, with 12 percent of ever married women and 21.5 percent of men across a lifetime. He contrasts this with Dr. Shirley Glass and Dr. Tom Smith on survey methods and under reporting, and cites high public disapproval yet forgiving attitudes toward Clinton.

Jakes Examines Women Men Love and God in New Book
Evangelist Bishop T D Jakes promotes The Lady Her Lover and Her Lord detailing how men and women differ in expression. He argues women must love themselves and bond with God before seeking a lover, while men speak love more through nonverbal cues. His book, published by Putnam's Sons at 19.95, tops religious book lists and reflects his Potter's House leadership in Dallas.
