- <p> "Excuse me" and "Please" are as important in the bedroom as
- they are elsewhere, says former Mayflower Madam Sydney Biddle
- Barrows. Advising on "etiquette for consenting adults" in her
- new book, Mayflower Manners, Barrows, 38, and co-author Ellis
- Weiner remind readers that after a kinky-sex party, a thank-you
- note is appropriate, and they offer tips on having an affair
- (Don't "rub the spouse's nose in the details"). One passage
- suggests that hosts notify guests if a known AIDS carrier is
- invited, and Barrows apologized for that faux pas last week.
- "I didn't intend to offend," she says, "but I realize it wasn't
- done in the most delicate way." To say the least.
