Milman published an article in the Annals of Pharmacotherapy about more than 12,000 reports of violence in men who took Viagra. The drug was listed as the possible cause of 13 rapes and 6 murders.

This year?s winner is Wendy Perriam for a description in her novel “Tread Softly.” It contains the lines “Weirdly, he was clad in pin-stripes at the same time as being naked. Pin-stripes were erotic, the uniform of fathers, two-dimensional fathers. Even Mr. Hughes’s penis had a seductive pin-striped foreskin.” The runner-up was Nicolas Coleridge, author ?Godchildren,? in which he describes a man stroking his lover “like a groom reassuring a frightened foal.” Previous winner Christopher Hart used a polar exploration as a metaphor for love-making.
