Julie Burchill
Julie Burchill, author of Girls on Film and frequent Guardian columnist, is one of our favorite writers about sex.
The always catty and hilarious Julie Burchill writes in praise of the quickie: "Yes, enough is certainly as good as a feast, and over the years I have come to the conclusion that, like the perfect pop single, three-and-a-half minutes of sex always hits the spot."

Julie Burchill savages the genre of relationship self-help books aimed at women. "It's a fact: the more books you read about sex and relationships, the less sex you're going to get and the longer you're going to be on the shelf. Because any woman who reads a relationship book inevitably reads another one - it's like a box of chocolates, you never stop at one - and before you know it, you're not seeing men as individuals, with their own funny little ways and cute little hang-ups, but as types who need to be corralled, named and changed."
