Hear her now? Dr. Ruth isn't done speaking up

FILE - In this Sunday, Jan. 17, 1993 file photo, actor Mickey Rooney, right, leans in to talk to Dr. Ruth Westheimer, center, as they wait with New York City Major David Dinkins, second from left, at Penn Station New York, headed for Washington aboard a special train to attend festivities surrounded the inauguration of President-elect Bill Clinton. The woman on the left is unidentified. In 1980, Westheimer broke into late-night radio with "Sexually Speaking," launching a career as confider-in-chief. The voice that Westheimer found on radio, and in the books and television shows that followed, pushed the boundaries of popular culture, declaring it not just safe, but healthy, for people to speak explicitly about their sex lives. A generation after the country embraced the Ruthian ethic of sexual honesty and moved on, what's left for Dr. Ruth, now an octogenarian grandmother, to talk about? Plenty, as it turns out.
