It’s only the fourth day of 2018, but facts are facts: Ruth Westheimer’s Twitter is the best thing on the internet this year. Westheimer’s feed is a strong combination of sex advice, thoughts on self-driving cars and withering takedowns of Barbra Streisand’s visit to the Holocaust museum.

If you don’t have a little bit of the 89-year-old sex positivity icon in your life, you’re not living.

Here are just a few of her hottest takes:

Dr. Ruth on how a woman’s vagina is NOT a black hole

They found the oldest black hole in space. https://t.co/rxtwl8bUUl You wouldn’t want to fall into that but guys, a woman’s vagina is not a black hole but rather a lovely place to explore that can bring her, and you, a lot of pleasure.

Dr. Ruth on the ceaseless march of progress

Fully self-driving cars are now on streets in AZ. How long before some couple brag about doing “it” in one of them? Cheaper than a motel. Probably should provide condoms!

Dr. Ruth doesn’t just give stellar sex advice, she tries to help improve every aspect of our sorry lives

Hope you’re thinking about what you’re thankful for. Better to consider your life now than mumble something half-hearted during the dinner.

I don’t know how anyone can go on when Westheimer just casually destroyed Barbra Streisand’s reflections on the Holocaust in one tweet, but I know there will be a Broadway musical written about this moment

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.

Readers like you make it all possible. We’re in the middle of our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we have a very ambitious goal of $127,000 by April 21.

This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a Passover gift today!
