Set between the Upper East Side of Manhattan and a country enclave known as The Village, Is There Still Sex in the City? gathers Bushnell's signature short, sharp, satirical commentaries on the love and dating habits of middle aged men and women as they continue to navigate the ever-modernizing world of relationships. Throughout, Bushnell documents twenty-first century dating phenomena, such as the "Unintended Cub Situation" in which a sensible older woman suddenly becomes the love interest of a much younger man, the "Mona Lisa" Treatment -- a vaginal restorative surgery often recommended to middle-aged women -- and what it's really like to go on Tinder dates as a fifty-something divorc�ee. Bushnell also updates one of her most celebrated stories from Sex and the City, about "Bicycle Boys," a breed of New York man who was always trying to bring his bike up to women's apartments. Once an anomaly, Bushnell charts their new ubiquitousness, in addition to where, and how, to do your own man stalking via bicycle (and whether or not it's worth it).
